HAHA SUCKER! He's probably kicking himself in the nuts right now.

Brown actually seems to prefer rebuilding jobs. The only made situation, I remember for him was Detroit.

Larry takes a **** team, makes it good, then leaves. That's his thing, right?

Mavs are definitely open and I would say so are Suns if they lose tonight...but to answer your question, maybe you didn't know he is from North Carolina? He went to UNC where he was coached by Dean Smith and his first coaching job was at Davidson just outside of Charlotte.

I know that but thanks for your opinion.

Now Avery can go to Phoenix and D`antoni can go to Dallas.

He won't get an offering at Suns or Mavs.

Worked with the Knicks.

Larry wants GM-like power and MJ is Isiaheque enough to let him have that power. So trade your average veteran for a young stud early. Lakers have dibs on Fisher or Odom for G.Wallace.

Bobcats players fit his style more than the suns/mavs players? :shrug:
Eastern Conference?

wants credit for making a team good?

You seem to be joking, but he was only given one year in New York.

My bad, I should have said **** team with potential.
I'm actually not sure if that's Charlotte, but I guess we'll find out.

Yeah, I was joking. Not only was he only given 1 year, but he was given a roster that had more chemistry and identity issues than any coach could handle, HOF or not. And they still had a semi-decent year, comparably speaking.

in his first season with the knicks, there was one time they got there heads straight and won what? 10 games straight...and folded ....they were getting there imo.

larry should've held out for the celtics job. i have a feeling that one's going to be open soon.

Less expectation with Bobcats. Mavs or Suns aren't winning the title with their current makeup as long as Tim Duncan's in the NBA.

Suns don't want Brown.
