The Nets announce team called him Coach Yogurt? LOL 
. Ultimately who cares but if you are taking this seriously you frankly need to get a sense of humor. It is NOT a big deal. Joerger gets compensated handsomely to be immune to the slings and arrows from outsiders that includes relatives of the players. MB2 wants the best for his son. If he wants to take a harmless swipe at the coach for denying his son what he thinks is best, I am not going to begrudge him that. I think Joerger is more motivated than ever before to do right by his team and our playoff push with a possible contract extension pending. If he can't handle the heat (spoiler alert: he can) then get out of the kitchen.

I called Trae being the truth just as I called LaVine being a bad signing hindrance, and a boatload of other stuff. I feel as if I’m right all the time
But, the issue tonight, is Trae has been playing better than Fox lately, and Fox continues to not show his first stretch play. The “imprint” comes and goes without consistency. I expect this Fox/Trae meeting to be more highly contested than last

You refused to criticize Matt Barnes when he choked a woman in a nightclub, right? That was disconcerting story that included dragging down our franchise player into the abyss. You had nothing to say about that did you? Correct me if I am wrong but if true certainly I would l presume you would be equally defensive in this situation. It is my strong belief MB2 is entitled to feel passionately about his son. He loves him, he coached him and believes in him as a future star! Yes sir! MB2 raised a great kid with a solid head on his shoulders and strong work ethic. Nowadays many Black males (~ 75%) are raised without a father and it causes issues. (See Boogie) There is a predominance of young Blacks raised by single mothers. Bagley Sr was there for his son and did a commendable job. I am supportive to a Dad who was there and made positive impact vs a coach who thinks Bjelica has earned permanent status based on his play over the two months. He has not earned that respect and deference. I like Bjelica but Bagley is going to be awesome. Yogurt at this point is in the way of his awesomeness. Is Luka playing behind Harrison Barnes? Is DeAndre Ayton playing behind Holmes? 30-40 games is plenty. Put this kid in the starting lineup where he belongs! Let's quite this nonsense being offended by words and be more considerate of actions. Words are words. Actions are more considerate than words. Words are water off a duck's back meanwhile this coach is slowing the development of a future All-Star. You can be put off by the fact MB2 referred to him as Yogurt, that's fine. I am put off by the fact Bagley was not named permanent starter after the Pistons game.
You are not disappointing since I know you well in this context and would not expect you willing to engage in a substantive debate. I know you are a sentiment-based fan, feelings over facts. Matt Barnes was a cancer on our team. He was bad on the court and jerk off it. But he was a hometown guy and wore the hometown jersey and so you defended him. Yogurt defended him too and promoted him until we traded Boogie and waived him the next day. I could not wait to get rid of Barnes. You and your favorite coach were among his biggest fans. Draw your own conclusions from there. Barnes was the problem not the solution. You sided with the problem. I saw him for who he was. That's not specious. That's clarity. And to be clear Joerger is a pretty good coach. But he's not infallible. He's flawed. That is the gray area many fans feel uncomfortable in. I am not. I seek truth not comfort.
