Bryan Colangelo

Tried it, and we shot the—we went like a rocket.

And then when I got here and being a little scared, my first year of coaching with the Suns, and I remember Jerry and Brian came to me, and we were having lunch over at Pizzeria Bianco's.

And they go, so who are you going to start? Anyway, you can start traditionally this, but probably the best would be Amari moving to center and Sean at the four.

And I don't know how they'll take it, but I think that would be the best.

Well, here's the deal.

Rome is now owned by Donnie Nelson, who was assistant coach with the Suns and longtime GM of the Dallas Mavericks.

And now I'm pretty sure, almost positive, Brian Colangelo is going to be chairman of the board of the team.

Really interesting, really great, great friends.

Here is Chris Daly who wrote the song for...

It's called We, We Want the Collar Fired, which is about Bryan Colangelo.

We played it when that happened, and then when we did Ricky X, our 10-year anniversary, which I can't believe is, like, three, four years ago, whatever.

So here is Christopher Daly's We Want the Collar Fired.

And Luka, Luka's team has, you know, lined up some big names.

Um, just this week it came out that Brian Colangelo, former, uh, two-time Executive of the Year in Phoenix and Toronto, obviously was the GM in Philly, he will be a part of this team.

Um, Maxima Roma put out a big, um, social media push last week because Francesco Totti.

I'm ignorant on Italian soccer.

But that was under different management.

Bryan Colangelo was the, the man who made the trade for Kyle Lowry, which I feel like he doesn't get enough credit for, but it's kinda like a-

BC

... you know...

he was the guy, and he also did f- really well in his first two years, but it went downhill from there.

In any case, he made this trade for Kyle Lowry.

A year later, after the Raptors only won 34 games, um, Bryan Colangelo was finally let go.

There's a brief interim period where Wayne Embry ran the team.

Like, his defensive versus...

I remember when Brian Colangelo... started talking before his rookie season.

He's like, oh, I think he can defend point guards.

I was like, oh, Brian, you're nuts.

for the woe tier i assume we're ratting it after i

saw a sixers fan comment and say brian colangelo didn't make the list i don't think brian colangelo was with the team and didn't really now he made bad moves with the team but i most of the guys i'm picking here were either just like they were the worst during this time period or they made moves that destroyed the franchise basically Like Brian Colangelo obviously burned through a lot of hinky shit that he built up, but he didn't make like, just like an objectively terrible move outside of the Markel Fultz thing, which I think there's a little bit of hindsight bias with that.

Okay.

Trivia.

I was involved in one of the biggest burner account situations ever.

With KD? No, you remember the Lion Brian Colangelo? His wife, Barbara Bottini, the former Sixers GM? He had his own burner.

But I guess his wife also was doing it as well.

I don't believe the wife actually ever had the burner.

One of them was following me.

And it was this big exclusive.

And it's why Brian Colangelo ended up losing his job.

Hmm, that's crazy.
