    Far less surprised by this one than any other coach firing this year, as Budenholzer having 40 locked up for doing absolutely nothing is so insane though.

    This is stunning, but not surprising.

    Will Ishbia be better or worse than former Nets’ owner Prokhorov? I bet on WAAAAAAAAY worse

      ishbia has made mistakes but he at least is willing to spend and has done other cool stuff like free broadcasting of games.

      Lol I was still reading about the David Griffin firing when it popped up so I was quick.

      Not surprised by this one but still crazy to go through 3 coaches in 3 years. Shoutout to the coaches union for getting these guys guaranteed contracts because there is 0 job security outside of Pop, Kerr, and probably Spo.

        Yeah the new owner needs to fire his friend Isiah Thomas too who advised him on these moves.
