Woj: Brett Brown Returns to Spurs as Assistant Coach

[MannyIsGod]

Successor in place.

Yeah I wonder if this is part of it.

[bigfan]

Next head coach. Good move by front office.

[Twisted_Dawg]

"Assistant to the Regional Manager ?"
He needs to make a call to Dwight Schrute and pick his brain.

[KingKev]

Coach Pop to Brett Brown. ….Sit in the corner, take notes and shutup.

[TDomination]

I’m assuming Brett is coming back because he will be pop’s replacement after next season. Glad to have him back. He’sa great coach.

thats my assumption at this point

get familiar with the players and that way he can coach them properly since he will be familiar with them

[timvp]

On a serious note, I'm a big fan of Brett Brown, the person. Back when Kori was one of like four total reporters at Summer League and Brown was the coach of the Spurs team, he went above and beyond to make sure Kori got all the interviews she wanted. Great dude, couldn't be nicer, tbh.

It’s also nice he gets an opportunity to shadow gramps on how not to coach.

[exstatic]

Oh , Richardson DEFINITELY gone now, like before training camp. Embiid, Horford, and JRich all unloaded on Bret on his way out the door from Philly.

[ducks]

Damm another white coach
Spurs love those diversity hires
Lol at pop and his liberal views about diversity

Pop is not nice to the media
I could care less about nice I was the wins
That is what it is about

[slick'81]

Fck yea! Good hire

Then why are you whining about diversity hires, you nutcase.

[poopbox]

Quinn Snyder already told the Spurs to lose his number tbh

[poopbox]

Josh Richardson bein on our team makes this even more Since he said Brent basically didn't hold anyone accountable in Philly and let player do what they wanted. He is definitely on his way out now.

[TD 21]

I’m assuming Brett is coming back because he will be pop’s replacement after next season. Glad to have him back. He’sa great coach.

Brown's 61, he's probably coming back to try to keep Pop sane and because he has a history in player development and coaching while tanking.

If not Snyder (55), Pop's replacement will probably be young, so Brown might stay on going forward as the old head to help guide whoever it is.

[jjspur]

Glad Brett Brown is back. We've had a lot of coaching talent leave the last few years. Nice to have a veteran coach rather than someone from the vide dept. Still waiting for Quinn Snyder to rejoin the spurs.

[timvp]

Brown's 61, he's probably coming back to try to keep Pop sane and because he has a history in player development and coaching while tanking.

Yep, that's my first thought as well. Brown purposefully tanked for four seasons. He's the Dean Smith of tanking. His experience in that regard is legitimately valuable, no joke.

[cd98]

Ha Keldon Johnson to average 20 minutes a game this year?

[KingKev]

Oh , Richardson DEFINITELY gone now, like before training camp. Embiid, Horford, and JRich all unloaded on Bret on his way out the door from Philly.

I mean we were interested to sign Spree multiile times after he strangled PJ

[Gagnrath]

Sort of, Pop isn't a fan of media mid-game. If you aren't asking really obvious questions the rest of the time he's a fairly pleasant person.

Not sure if serious....

The Sixers' culture got wrecked by The Process and it doesn't seem to have recovered yet.

[OldMan88]

We’ll know a full on tank is in place when the Spurs carry a teammate off the court on their shoulders for hitting a 3pt shot in the opponent’s basket to secure a loss against another tanking team.

[slick'81]

Ha Keldon Johnson to average 20 minutes a game this year?

more like 20+ ppg

[Coach X]

Oh no He’s not a good coach.

At all.

Please please Popovich don’t leave now.

[the golden era]

Oh no He’s not a good coach.

Please please Popovich don’t leave now.

You forgot to add the /s

I hope
