Hmm, without consideration of Steve Browns reporting abilities I think he should be applauded for waiting until Deron left to criticize him. Deron treated him with utter contempt, routinely humiliated him during live post-game shows, and behaved like a spoiled child as the original post described. It's a credit to the reporter for not calling out Deron before, or suing the Jazz for harrasment or making a scene another way.
Deron's contempt for everyone around him including the media, his coach, his teamates, the rookies was easily apparent. I think it was sucking the life out of the jazz organization, so the trade was a good thing. For Deron's sake, I hope the trade shakes him up a bit and he can learn.
