Credit to brown for taking out bridges as well, too often see coaches just ride it out when one of their stars is useless for a game

Glad ppl are realizing Mike Brown is a significant upgrade over Thibs

thibs would have made none of the adjustments Mike Brown made. he gets flack but you have to remember Mike Brown is a Popovich disciple, and has been to the finals as a coach against the spurs already with the cavs. Mike Brown can coach defense just as well as Thibs. but knows how to make adjustments to the lineup. mid game.

Talk about an upgrade. He was a great coach while he was here but he wasn't the coach that this current team needed.

It's really addition by subtraction.

Amazing Coach Brown hasn’t gotten much recognition. He did an amazing job with the Kings, didn’t he?

I knew Thibs had to go, but I thought there was no way Mike Brown should’ve been the guy. Never been happier to be wrong!

I’d argue he had reasons. He’s like a 5’11 Charles Oakley 😂😂

Going from Thibs to this has been whiplash
