The Brooklyn Nets locker room is a much more fun and free place now then it was a week ago. The Nets parted ways with Lionel Hollins last Sunday and Tony Brown will be coaching the team for the rest of the season. After only two games as the interim coach, Brown has connected more with his players than Hollins had all season.
Brooklyn is coming off of a win over their crosstown rivals the New York Knicks. After the game, Thaddeus Young had high praise for his new coach, while also taking a subtle shot at Hollins.
