At Least He's Staying in the Family
So this moved across the wires less than an hour ago
NEW YORK (AP) - The New York Knicks have hired Larry Brown as head coach.
This was no surprise of course, given that Brown called the Knicks his "dream job," earlier this season and that he was recently fired by my favorite team, the Pistons. The good news is that we can keep rooting for Larry Brown because he's going to Anna's favorite team. In fact, he may render the Knicks watchable again.
For what it's worth, the Pistons made a huge mistake in firing him. Flip Saunders is a perfectly reasonable choice as coach, but I don't think he's all that much better than Stan Van Gundy. That's bad because the Pistons and the Heat are still the best teams in the East (although Indiana is back in that group with the return of Ron Artest) and Detroit no longer has such an advantage on the sidelines. It also means that Pistons owner Bill Davidson is actually worse than George Steinbrenner when it comes to firing people, the unionbusting fool. Detroit has won 50 games in each of the last four years and has had two coaches during that time. It's sort of crazy.
