""rooted in being proactive" based on the determination that "evolution and innovation is what is needed.""
""These decisions mark fork-in-the-road moments for organizations," Kolb told reporters Thursday. "You can stand still or you can embrace change and move forward, and my commitment is to keep pushing the New York Liberty to new heights.""
""This is not a results-based organization," Kolb said. "This is not about not winning or winning. It's about how do we position ourselves to be at the top of the league in a real sustainable way as the league evolves.""
Jonathan Kolb said the Liberty's decision not to exercise Sandy Brondello's contract option was proactive, aiming for evolution and innovation. Brondello remains the franchise's winningest coach and led the team to its first championship in 2024. The Liberty, hampered by injuries, fell in the first playoff round this season to the Phoenix Mercury as the No. 5 seed. Kolb said the change was under consideration last season and was not driven solely by results. Kolb emphasized positioning the team for sustainable long-term success as the league evolves. Several players, including Breanna Stewart, publicly supported Brondello.
