Brook could have left the playoffs out of his sound bite completely and everything would have sounded ok.

Horrible comparison. Brook Lopez was drafted and is playing on his rookie contract. If he isn't going to expect his team to make the playoffs then he shouldn't even be in the league, because obviously he wouldn't be holding himself accountable for improving his team's chances. His mindset is exactly right, and unfortunately all too rare, and I never actually liked the guy.
And neither myself, nor my momma commented on Watson.
