Jovan Buha reveals that coach JJ Redick pulled reporters aside for a “heart to heart” after exit interviews to take accountability for being hot tempered with them during the playoffs and needing to be better

  1. Hope he never plays starters the whole game again, not only does it not work but you gas them out for the next games as well

  7. JJ wasn’t great during the playoffs, but I can understand his actions to the reporters. I’m not great to talk to after a Lakers loss. I can’t imagine how I would be if I was coaching.

  8. My favorite part about watching JJ with the press is how he ends interviews by just turning around and quickly walking away. He does it after almost every on-court interview. It’s like a switch just flips and it’s fucking hilarious

  9. Good man, JJ. Humility’s a sign of real confidence. All the swagger and bluster we see around these days is just a mask for insecurity. Being able to acknowledge your own faults and mistakes is a sign of real strength.

  10. Self awareness is a great virtue, I’m glad he knows that wasn’t the most impressive coaching series out there. To be fair, he wasn’t dealt a good hand, but he could have made a better job for sure.

    Supporting him as a sophomore will be important because he was a rookie in the deepest sense when we think he didn’t have any coaching experience at any level before last season.

  13. Hopefully his AI chat buddy has helped him manage his emotions.

    Jokes aside, a quality human owns up to their faults and takes steps to do better. I like JJ, I think he’s a great coach for our guys.
