    Thought he answered honestly.

    Think the Rockets straight up told him they wanted to change and needed change. And that's how it played out.

    My personal thought was that he was raw, not ready to make simple adjustments that honestly, I saw from Tyronne Lue. However, he was put in a difficult position mid season and a coach needs at least one offseason to implement his system and plan. And to get the Warriors in round one, no win difficult situation.

    Agree with Managements decision here. Change for Change sake.

    He has time to learn. I will root for him.

    Definitely talking about Dwight and Harden having different views. For the rest, nothing interesting other than the support of McHale and how he felt we needed a fresh start which is true.

    Tyronne Lue had the balls to tell his star to STFU. JB - as indicated in the article - just tried to make everyone happy and ended up pissing off the most important players on his team.

    Exactly. Thanks JR for taking time to transcribe because I did want to read the whole thing.

    I don't think any coach could have dealt with the fongolian muster cluck that was the 2015-2016 rockets.

    I didn't listen but I'm sure he went on and on about how he wished he could find more minutes for his boy Brrewer.

    And do you think someone cares if you read or not?


    Back on topic, i kinda feel for JB, i know he was far from perfect, but the locker room was cleraly toxic, or at least the relationship between Harden and Howard, just a terrible situation to coach.
