Brown seems like a good dude. Did a lot for this franchise in the lean years. I wish him the best.

I think a lot has to fall on Harris and company. They have been the other constant during this absolute mess of a rebuild.

IDK what quarter means but he said he appreciates him and considers him a friend but it's management's call on whether to make a change.

Jay Wright would be cool, but I feel his system is even more inflexible than BBs is.

There was a time when it seemed brown could coach, at least until the FO got a lot of pieces that don’t fit. However I think it’s going to take a top flight coach to make this work.

I think the team should hire a better coach and find some better players.

I asked Brett Brown if integrating Al Horford in lineup this year was bigger challenge than he thought

“It was difficult. But that is my job”

“You take the team that you have and you get the most out of it.
I did not do that”

“Space became an enormous issue”

Jimmy said that January 2019 and got roasted as “here we go again.”
On a scale of 1 to Chris Brown, how pissed is he?

Think that's also directed to #21 and #25.

Richardson saying that having come from a winning org from the very top to very bottom is telling in some many ways.

Running it back next year a year after they should’ve done just that will be peak irony.

Butler was lukewarm on re-signing with Philly last off-season and the organization was aware, but the Sixers were still prepared to offer him a max contract if he wouldn’t take any recruiting visits, sources said.

Butler did not agree to that stipulation, sources said, and both sides ended up parting ways. Butler was a force for the Sixers and proved to be their finisher down the stretch, but he wasn’t sold that the team was invested in winning, and his leadership style rubbed some the wrong way at times.

Brown didn’t appreciate how outspoken Butler was with his coaching tactics, and Ben Simmons once took issue with a text message Butler sent in a team group chat that instructed Simmons what not to do in an upcoming game against Brooklyn, sources said.

Think Brett being Ben's guy and coddling him is an underrated subplot. Has had a relationship with the family for years dating back to Australia.
