J.B. Bickerstaff and Jamahl Mosley consider themselves brothers. "We didn't make eye contact during the series," Bickerstaff said. "I knew the outcome of that series -- we played two years before when I was in Cleveland -- if I would've lost to Jamahl, I would've been fired. I knew if Jamahl didn't beat us [last season], he was going to be fired. Coaching those games was extremely emotional, and them both coming down to Game 7s adds more weight to those moments. I know the impact that it has on you, your wife in that moment. His kids call me Uncle." Several coaches closely watched the matchup. They are part of an 11-member group chat featuring Black NBA head coaches and assistants who have been friends for years.
