As a huge Jason Williams fan when he went to tha Grizzlies and then Hubie came in and coached I got to know Coach Hubie over TNT Hubie the guy not only loves the game but loves his players to.
I have about 50-70 Memphis games on tape while Hubie was there and countless times he hugs or even kisses a player on tha cheek like a proud father after a great performance,he managed to disect and improve JWills game without taking away from his flashes of brilliance and natural flare cast out the eraticnous n polished his game to the point of leading the league in assisst/turnover ratio.
He also had respect from players who had been known to b cancers b4 playing under him like Bonzi Wells he got a great amount of production out of Bonzi and never once did he flare up under Hubie.
I was sad the day I heard hed have to step down from coaching the Grizz due to health issues and the hectic schedule and Im sure every Memphis player was to as that team wasnt the same without him Fratello came in and lost the locker room and the team dispanded.
I will always b greatfull for his knowledge and also wat he did for Jason Williams game as I truly think without Hubies influence he wouldnt have helped that 06 Heat team to a Championship or be the solid backup he is now in Orlando.
Hubie Brown I salute u Sir.
Peace
