Mike Brown Wins 2022-2023 Coach of the Year

Yes, definite congratulations are in order.  And he would make that trade in a heartbeat.  I'm a little disappointed SAC did not take GSW to the cleaners.  Mike needed that series to help him shed the NBA's lovable loser title.  He definitely put a dent in it, though.

As always there’s a ‘Debby Downer” to throw dirt on what was deemed a success by the majority.

Mike Brown just couldn’t get it done.

In sports, there are some things you can set your watch to. A Tom Brady game-winning drive. An early upset in the NCAA Tournament. A dramatic offseason for Aaron Rodgers. And a playoff letdown from a team coached by Mike Brown. And no matter how it may appear that times have changed, some people/things just are who they are.

Sacramento didn’t have a chance in hell on Sunday in Game Seven against the Golden State Warriors. And it’s not just because Steph Curry had 50 points. It was because their head coach had hit his ceiling.

If you so care to indulge, here’s the rest of the story:

Well, at least he has his job, Bucs fired theirs today. Poor guy really had a rough playoff, Giannis getting hurt, missing games, and on top of that he was dealing with the death of his brother.

Oh well, as they say, this is just business

I read about the death of his brother. That was rough.

It really is a shame regarding Budenholzer’s
brother. As with I.T.’s sister and Crowder’s mom, it sucks and the timing makes it worse.
However, I feel that Budenholzer did a terrible job in that Heat series. Injuries etc didn't help but that team should have beat the Heat even without Giannis.
The worst part of this is the way they lost. Coming apart at the end of games after have huge leads. The last game they actually looked as though they didn't know what to do in that bottom of that 4th quarter and this is practically the same team that won a championship 2 years ago.. It was a poor job by coach Bud and the optics were even worse. Feel bad for Anyone who loses their job, well not everyone but there was no way the could have brought him back after that.
