Typical non commitment answer from a player. Some call it towing the company line. I call it bull$hit. I would prefer a player say no comment than dance around the question at hand.

And with rumors of Brad Stevens future up in BOS, a new coaching search should get pretty exciting.

As much as I don’t like Bill Belicheck or Popovich I respect their bluntness. I don’t like if they make the reporter look like an a$$ though.

I don’t think a player could reasonably answer questions bluntly, or they’re labeled “cancers”. What Brogdon did was simply being a professional. If he said “this guy is terrible, fire him”, it’d be major non-stop news. Who was the last player that ever came out and said this stuff openly and wasn’t in the midst of a trade demand?

I’m saying Brogdon or McConnell can say next question or I don’t know, or I can’t comment rather than just saying a lot of round about feel good rah rah garbage. I would really like them to say if you want to know about coach ask his boss Pritchard.
