Mike Brown was solely delivering on what he’d promised, OK? This was the eve of his first Knicks-Nets Interborough Squabble, the primary time he would coach in opposition to his previous protégé and pal, Jordi Fernández, every man main one among New York’s two NBA groups.
(And sure, as of 10:37 Sunday night time, the Nets had not but been relegated and so remained an NBA group — in idea, not less than.)
Anyway, that is what Brown had stated in anticipation of this collision between mentor and mentee:
“It’s nice, I’m simply completely satisfied for him and his household. He’s an incredible younger coach. He’s received a younger group, clearly, so that they’ve received to determine issues out. Anytime I get an opportunity to see him, I at all times like to see him, however I wish to kick his ass.”
