Some Highlights:
Interesting thoughts and perspective on the Parade being the real moment you realize yuve just won a championship and its real.
Addressing we got a lot of guys back so draft is about investing and growing young talent. But our main players are back and they will be playing the minutes. To my ears it means the picks while important are future talent.
Touching on Joe as a unique coach. And how he uses bonding and trying new things to get the team into a teaching moment and relate it to our success and development. He is also still a coach and coaches like a coach too not just the eccentric things.
Question about can we repeat. Are we the favorites. usually immediately after a win press asks can you repeat. Brad asked are you always thinking about repeating from day 1 or is it part of process. Really smart response from Brad stating he doesn't even know what the league will look like in 3 weeks so how are we the favorites?
The culture is about knowing the role everyone plays to the success of the team. Good team players share common traits. Baseline of competitiveness and character and good enough to play at a high level. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY they have to be good people and good teammates. The understanding that its more than one and it takes a team to win and be consistent. from the chefs and analytics guys.
Differences in assembling a team and coaching from Butler to the NBA level.
AL getting a title waited a long time. How did that feel for you as well since you've come into the league and waited so long. Does it change you.
ASked if he knew we would win or was there a moment he thought it was ours. Brad said as weird as it sounds he really wanted to enjoy this team and not think about those things.
How hard it is to play all the extra games post season and managing guys who played a lot of minutes and get guys with few minutes more minutes and managing the guys going to the olympics.
Offseason mixing with other coaches like Kerr who have had success and how to manage a short turn around to sustain success going forward. What kinds of conversations will Brad be anticipating.
