    Did you work with him?

    You think he will let KPJ and/or Stone go as well?

    Mike Brown sure did grow a lot being a GSW assistant. I remember that prior to him being assistant there, it seems like his head coaching career would be coming to an end.

    A great cacophony of bromides and cliches. A dismissal paragraph downloaded from Bullshizzlenit 101.

    FWIW (which probably isn't much), I think Silas is a genuinely good human being, and I wish him well.

    I've always wanted to see the conventional wisdom of "nice guy finishes last" to be wrong for once.

    Too bad I'm disappointed again.

    Just curious. If a free agent wasn't offered an extension or new contract would you create a thread entitled "Rockets cut player X"?

    This is really weird but this dude (sorry, don't know who it is) looks a bit like a buffed up Nowitzki.

    I get the feeling hiring Udoka would be a play for Brown.

    If they got #2 and ran with a (Udoka) Henderson, Green, Brown, Smith, Sengun lineup does that work?

    Henderson, Green, Brown, Smith, Sengun
    Christopher, Washington, Porter, Martin, Tate, Eason, Garuba, Clippers pick off the bench...
    3 old hats?

    Idk man. They've got to consolidate some. We've all got favorites but you can't have a 12 man rotation every night if you want to win.

    What would we be trading for Brown in this instance?

    Not the same. A player's contract has a lot more considerations. Not extending a player does not necessarily mean that the team doesn't want him. It could be because they don't want to pay him that much, or they need the capspace, etc. Not extending a coach's contract is pretty clear why.
