Rachel Nichols is having a rough NBA Finals.
Just a few weeks ago Nichols was replaced on ABC’s NBA Finals broadcast team by Malika Andrews after she was heard calling Maria Taylor a diversity hire in a leaked video.
Now Nichols is getting criticized by NBA fans for her awkward questions during the NBA Final press conference.
After the Suns were eliminated from the playoffs in game 6 of the NBA finals, Nichols asked Paul “what it does it feel like?.” Paul chuckled and answered, “it feels like we just lost.”

Fans weren’t feeling Nichols’ question to CP3.

Dear Rachel,
That is another reason you got the boot. https://t.co/WN6PjX8FPZ— Jay (@Jayy_Geee93) July 21, 2021
Literally what is the point of asking that.
Surprised Chris Paul didn't just walk out. Wouldn't blame him tbh https://t.co/8xySSwHMiA
