Let's set aside for a moment that former Phoenix Suns coach Earl Watson was probably the worst X's and O's coach in the NBA.

Let's not revel in the fact that we'll no longer have to choke down our vomit while Earl sputters out platitude after platitude.

Let's not criticize him for stymieing the growth of the bevy of diaper dandies that GM Ryan "Teflon" McDonough has assembled.

Because Earl Watson wasn't fired for any of those reasons.

The real reason Watson was fired is because he just wasn't losing "right."

After all, the mandate from the organization was to lose.
