McD and Drai don’t seem happy about Woody being fired. Not sure what this will do to the team

I don't think players ever like to see a coach fired, unless the coach was a total POS human being.

First the players probably blame themselves, usually the coach is fired because the team is playing like crap. Then there is the personal relationship you developed with the coach or coaches. Need to be pretty lacking empathy to not feel bad for them, combined with the guilt.

Players were not happy when Tippett was fired either. And the shame really lit a fire under their butts. Management is banking on that again to some degree.
