The NY Sports Report focuses on the Brooklyn Nets introduction of its new head coach Kenny Atkinson, which should be imminent since the Atlanta Hawks’ playoff run has come to an end and ending Atkinson's assistant coaching duties.

The New York Knicks is still leaving fans and the media in the dark regarding its head coach for next season. It’s been rumored that former Indiana Pacers coach Frank Vogel or his agent may have spoken with Steve Mills, executive vice president and general manager of the New York Knicks, and not Knicks president, Phil Jackson. This rumor has left many Knicks fans to worry that Jackson is going to keep Kurt Rambis as the Knicks head coach.

 

 

VIDEO Discussion: All agree Devon Still ESPY speech most inspirational; Dez Bryant hits the jackpot; Brooklyn Nets making moves; NY Knicks look promising

VIDEO Conversation: DL Hughley Objects to Caitlyn Jenner Receiving ESPY Arthur Ashe Courage Award and Media Calling Serena Williams Masculine

Comedian DL Hughley put the ESPY’s on blast regarding Caitlyn Jenner receiving the ESPY Arthur Ashe Courage Award and for the way the media is treating Serena Williams. Hughley Told TMZ:

“I think that it’s named after Arthur Ashe.

Arthur Ashe from Richmond, Virginia, a symbol of courage. He fought [a] segregated south, a very segregated profession, he fought AIDS with dignity and honor, and Caitlyn Jenner put on a dress. I don’t think it’s the same thing.”

“In the last month, we had the media telling us that Caitlyn Jenner was beautiful and that Serena Williams looks like a man,” Hughley said. “That was a little weird to me. The man looks like a woman, but the woman looks like a man. That’s ridiculous. Serena Williams is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen on a tennis court, and Bruce Jenner looks like every P.E. teacher I ever had.”

When asked by TMZ if Caitlyn Jenner looked beautiful, Hughley quipped, “In a, like, ‘Mrs. Doubtfire’ way.”

Ouch!

Caitlyn Jenner’s speech, the most anticipated speech of the night. Whether you agree or disagree with the way she has chosen to live out the rest of her life, Caitlyn Jenner’s speech was extremely moving and inspirational. Jenner used her platform to speak about the plight of transgender youth and bullying.

Another inspirational speech was made by Devon Still. He used his platform for creating awareness of childhood cancer. Still, who is a professional football player, helped us all to look at his and his daughter Leah's unfortunate situation in a more positive light.
