Reporter Shares Fun Goal For Mike Brown In Sacramento

Bonta Hill points out that if Brown ends up getting the Kings back into the playoffs, he’ll be eating for free in Sacramento forever.

There is no doubt that’s true because the Kings have been missing the postseason for years now and fans are beyond eager for that to change.

End Of The Drought

The Kings haven’t been in the playoffs since 2006.

That’s the longest playoff drought in the history of the NBA and a black mark on the team.

Throughout numerous coaches and many lineup alterations, the Kings have repeatedly come up short again and again.

Will Brown’s selection as head coach change that?

As an assistant coach for the San Antonio Spurs and Golden State Warriors, Brown was a part of three championship runs.

As a head coach, his teams never won a title.

In fact, his Cavaliers were swept in the 2007 NBA Finals by the Spurs.

Still, Brown has earned the trust of many players within the league and was even named NBA Coach of the Year in 2009.

The task laid before him with the Kings will be his biggest challenge yet.

If he turns this team around, he will deserve every award in the book.
