Damn, thats some big news. It was Hubie alone that took the Grizzlies to the playoffs last year. Anyway good luck to him, he's a great coach.

When I 1st saw it, i thought i was dreaming or something

I hope we can just find a good replacement, and I think we will get Hubie's son who is the asst. to coach the team if Hollins doesnt do a good job. I think we going to keep the 10 man rotation too for now unless a new coach tries to change things up. We need to get Pau, Posey and Stro back now and I hope our team doesn't drop since somethin this bad happened.

Hollins as in Lionel Hollins the guy who coached the Grizzlies for a while in Vancouver and wasn't very good. Good luck with that.

Best of luck to Hubie with his health problems

A shame, but he must do what's best for his health. I'm really impressed with what he was able to do in Memphis. I thought that with him being out of coaching for so long and with the generation gap, he wouldn't be able to work with the youth of today. Instead he guided them to their first playoff berth in team history.

thats a shame. He was a good coach, but health comes before work imo.

Sorry maf'

sorry for what? :lol:

its not like we still dont have jerry west for the rest of the year and the same coaching staff. we still have hubie's son as well so unless we get a brand new coaching staff that doesn't has the same gameplans as hubie had, and we trade a bunch of players for selfish players and west leaves, then we really won't have a problem. i think west will leave after this year though since hubie left, but i hope he doesn't.

lol i just found out hubie brown is the grizzlies' all-time winningest coach.. and he was there for probably a little under 2 seasons.. either the ex-coaches really sucked, or hubie was really good. i'll go with the latter :wink:

well it was basically hubie was really good, but a few of the other coaches didnt suck that bad. it was just the team we had where we didn't have no style of play. sidney lowe was an "ok" coach, but we didn't have the same weapons as we have now on the team so there's no telling what he couldve done with the team we have now.
