Sources: Brown finalizing deal to become Kerr's top assistant

Hiring Mike Brown seems more a matter of choosing experience over creativity and comfort over inspiration.

OAKLAND – Though the move is not yet official, multiple league sources confirm Mike Brown is finalizing the details of his contract and before the end of the week will become Steve Kerr’s No. 1 coaching assistant with the Warriors.

Brown will be an interesting hire, curious for a variety of reasons.

Kerr deeply values the intense/joyful culture built over the past two years, during which time the Warriors have won 140 games while appearing in consecutive NBA Finals.
