5 games?! without Nash for most of these games with no depth behind him to compound the situation? such a panic move.

and who the fuck is gonna replace him? any new coach will want hire his own staff, and right now most of the potential asst. coaches he'd want to come join him are currently coaching on other teams and they can't really abandon their teams or get out of their contracts at this point in the season.

Stan Van Gundy just called this "the most ridiculous firing in the history of the NBA." i completely agree.

Swipe: Van Gundy told the Sentinel that Brown's dismissal was "absurd," adding, "Why did they bring him back? They changed the entire staff, changed his offense, got two new players (Dwight Howard and Steve Nash), have had guys hurt since day 1 and gave him five games to get it going."
