Tue, 26 Aug 2008 00:00:00 GMT

Filed under: NBA Media Watch , USA Basketball There are many sayings about excuses. I can't use the one I'm thinking about here, but it turns out that Larry Brown , head coach of the 2004 Olympic team and current coach of the Charlotte Bobcats, has one too.

Brown gives Bobcats outside shot at playoffs (Inside the NBA)

Mon, 18 Aug 2008 00:44:45 GMT

There’s impact, and then there’s IMPACT. I think Larry Brown will make the Bobcats better next season, maybe winning five games they wouldn’t have otherwise won. Doesn’t mean I think they’ll reach the playoffs. I think it will be harder...

Wed, 16 Jul 2008 16:55:11 GMT

Water on the bridge. Ancient history… Larry Brown was a mega-stealth candidate for the Stanford job a few months ago before Johnny Dawkins finally took it, I wrote about the LB scenario, got yelled at about it, and Larry, as is his habit, almost took the job and then bowed out almost as...

Ziller on Point/Combo Guards (QueenCityHoops)

Wed, 28 May 2008 00:05:53 GMT

I know I have been slacking - but when all the Bobcats managed in the past month was to fire Sam Vincent, hire Larry Brown, and drop a spot in the draft from 8th to 9th - what was I supposed to write about? (If in doubt, re-read, but think "sarcasm" throughout). With that said... Tom Ziller wrote something near and dear to me: Ballad for the Combo Guard . Read it - I am not asking, I...

Mon, 12 May 2008 15:18:18 GMT

So with the season over, and excitement that was generated by the Larry Brown hiring slipping away, I though it was time to do something about the name of the Bobcats home court. Namely, change it.

Dallas columnist: Mavericks coaching search just missed Larry Brown (Detroit Free Press)

It may be another case of what might have been with Larry Brown If the notion of Rick Carlisle as the next Mavs doesn't inspire, and you hoped for someone with a title in his resume, consider the following trivia. Question: How many coaches have won NBA championships in the last 20 years? Answer: Only six, and one of them already could have been coach of the Mavs. No, it wasn't Phil Jackson,...
