What would you rather see first, a new head coach hire or a new head of basketball operations?

The Washington Wizards are currently searching for their next head coach. Based on reports earlier this week, it seems like Washington will hire a current assistant coach (from any team, not just Washington), to succeed Scott Brooks.

Despite the search, some fans in the comments or on social media want the team to move on from General Manager Tommy Sheppard. The rationale for parting ways with Sheppard comes from the fact that he was with the team since 2003, the year Ernie Grunfeld was hired as President of Basketball Operations. And in addition, it’s not like the Wizards have suddenly become championship contenders or cleared the path for a rebuild.
