Thought Conroy's closing comments were interesting re: his involvement with the coaches and the line up choices.
Thought it was super interesting that he said Treliving was very much down there and wanted to be involved in line up decisions, where as Burke's philosophy was you hired the coach to do that, stay out of it. Conny said he's going to take more of the Burke approach.
Just found that interesting re: the tension with Tre and Daryl. A lot of talk about Sutter maybe playing games with the line up to force roster moves from the GM, and just one data point, but also sounds like Tre might not have been helping much in that department if he was trying to get into Daryl's kitchen a bunch. Not sure you go out and hire a super tenured coach (especially Daryl) and expect things are going to go well if you want daily input into the line up. BTW - maybe reading too much into it, but the way Conny said it, seemed like it was more of a consistent stylistic thing for Tre, vs. he started doing it with Daryl at the end because he wasn't like player usage type of thing.
