""I just … I don’t understand … the city here … for me not trying to bite my tongue and not calling them dumb, which I kinda just did.""

Instead of looking at stirring up calling the fans dumb, I would prefer to look at the veteran addressing his teams problems.

 

 

They say, ‘Well, let Steve [Nash] dribble the ball around and create opportunities for everybody. And let Dwight [Howard] post up and let me iso.’ It’s … I don’t want to say idiotic, but it’s close.

The message changes according to who is giving it. It’s the sequence of options. The equal opportunity offense and the essence is the same.

The only thing that changes is now you have Mike Brown telling everybody to be patient. Back then, it was Phil Jackson telling everybody to shut up.

The critics are more likely to take runs at him [Brown] than they would at Phil Jackson.

Phil obviously won and Mike hasn’t won yet. But u have to look at the offensive philosophy. They’re the same type of philosophies.

For people not to understand that…it’s kind of funny to me actually to sit back and see that and see the arguments. A lot of people took runs at Phil too about the offense and what he’s doing. That tells you about some of these people.

 

Very interesting if you ask me.

"Better them than me" – Mike Brown

 He didn’t call Lakers fans dumb. It’s obvious he was responding to the team’s critics.
