I can't believe that it sounds like Brown survives again Gilbert said we expect good things over the next 30 games when asked about Mike Brown hope no one shows up at the Q for ever remaining game at home just to remind the owner who the customers are
Screw Ladouchebag forever and always
Screw most owners that are stupid and greedy
Screw the devil david stern
Screw the officials that handed the heat a championship
And screw the media that loves to tell us who we should love and why.

Pretty sure Brown is getting fired at the end of the season.

Not soon enough!!!

Do you guys know how long this mistake goes back?

* Embry trades Harper for three picks for Ferry and Williams because Embry and Ferry's father Bob are friends.
* Years later when Gilbert replaces Paxson he talks to exowner Gund about friend of his in the league and Ferry's name came up as a youth GM candidiate who was at San Antonio as an asistant.
* Ferry hires his friends another assistant Mike Brown and Chris Grant who were friends in college and room mates.
* Grant rehires his friend Brown and here we are.

Gilbert What's your $375,000 million investment worth now? This is just like a direct TV ad: Don't listen or hire friends, or you end up losing the best player in the game and lose millions. Leave it to someone you do not know but has built a successful career on their own.

Not soon enough? Face it, we are tanking again so let Brown drive it, and himself out of town while he is doing it. I may be in the minority here, but I was never that impressed with Embry as a GM. Solid person but I think he was overrated a bit by the media though.
