There was was no argument. I just explained to him what a bromance was. He is older and probably not a term he is used to seeing.

You saw living proof, evidence, at a job that hadn’t been great that he has made great.Despite having more head coaching experience, Abdur-Rahim said he's still learning."To be able to have [Golesh] to bounce stuff off of culturally X’s and O’s-wise, execution-wise… it’s invaluable for a coach."Golesh joked that he might pursue another career when his football days are over.
