Cheryl Reeve's WNBA Coach of the Year win shouldn't distract from her dangerous accusations
Cheryl Reeve added another WNBA Coach of the Year award to her collection Monday. Unfortunately, winning basketball games hasn't stopped her from treating disagreement with her politics as evidence of hatred.
The Minnesota Lynx coach received 40 of 74 votes from a national panel of sportswriters and broadcasters, earning the honor for a record fifth time. Her team finished with the WNBA's best record at 33-11, so there is an obvious basketball argument for the selection.
But it's worth remembering who votes on this award.
