Brown coached the Warriors for 11 postseason contests — all wins — including Game 1 of the Finals against the Cavaliers team he once led. They headed back on I-5 to see Brown's son, Elijah, at Oregon, and caught a Ducks football game against Nebraska. "Mike, he's so happy here," Kerr said. Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry, another former top Golden State assistant, admired Brown's handling of the Warriors from afar during the postseason. Everybody involved with the Warriors, from the top executives on down, so appreciated Brown's ability to balance his changing roles.
