    Default Larry Brown Is Our New Coach!

    http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3373007

    Press conference set for tomorrow afternoon. This is great news for this organization!! Get ready for a lot of national media coverage this off season and some more national respectability next season.

    There really is no excuse for us not to make the playoffs in the East with Larry Brown as our coach.

    Well you'll know in about 12 hours.

    I'm guessing 3 years for $15 million

    My guess is 3 years ranging from 15 - 20 million.

    You beat me to it, Alex!!! No matter; it's great news, and my season ticket deposit's going down tomorrow, baby!!! We may be looking at the watershed event that makes this team relevant for the forseeable future, fellas. It's a great friggin' week to be a Bobcat fan!

We believe that its return will galvanize our fan base by unifying our loyal Bobcats fans with those who have strong memories of our city's NBA predecessor." MJ, 5-21-13

    THANK YOU MJ!!!!! You did the right thing letting your friend go and hiring a Coach with a proven track record. Great hire!

    Remember Brown got that huge payoff from the Knicks for that debacle in NY. Maybe he's going to prove he is not all about $ and take the job at a reduced cost? Maybe under $5 mil / year? No, not much of a chance on that - I agree it will likly be a 3 yr $15mil job.

    Bonnell was right in his article. Brown will let Felton run the PG for the yr to see if he can truly hang with it, and Okafor will be able to see if he likes Brown's system enough to sign a long term Contract with us.

    Question: Many times, a new regime comes in and wants to put a stamp on it's Team, make changes to create a new identity in the mold of it's Coach. Do you think Larry will make some changes/trades to shake anything up, or use the talent we have and only add the Draft pick(s)? I don't know the answer, but it will be interesting.
