    I wonder who will replace him? It'll be an interesting choice, as many thought Rogowski was a Dwight hire.

    Let's all chill out. It's the strength and conditioning coach not the head coach, assistant or trainer

    I reckon I would be less concerned if he wasn't responsible for protecting the health and on-court time for a team that had too many player injuries and time on the IR.

    If there was a team that should look at cleaning house on team doctor, trainer, and strength & conditioning...
