If not them, who? We can't beat them. :-?


We can beat them even with Hali with a more competent coach

Thibs was a defensive coach but our transition and 3 pt defense were a joke since January unaddressed... he's no offensive coach he really didn't do **** all year but yelling "DOWN DOWN DAMN DAMN IT CMON DOWN CMON MAN DOWN" all game

Our team is championship worthy... any good coach can EASILY improve on our 51 wins...

The statement "he led us to first ECF" makes me wanna puke, he didn't LEAD us ****, we/ the players CARRIED him to 51 wins and ECF

The other coaches before him since our previous ECF didn't have LEON making moves... I bet one of the "lowly" Fisher, Fiz, Horny could have led us to 51+ wins and NBA Finals with this year roster


Hope you're right but I don't see it man. I'm starting to slowly think Becky was right. We need Brunson to be the Robin or at the very least we need a second Batman. Brunson as the best player isn't it.

Ngl I have nothing tangle against Brown other than he looks kinda goofy and getting sacked by the kings is a yellow flag. That franchise is poverty. But they have given up on talemt before so it might not be a him problem.
