Stray thoughts on a butt-kicking: -- Larry Brown said post-game that he didn't know previous to this trade how wide Stephen Jackson's skill set is. I've had the same reaction: We all knew Jackson was a scorer and a marvelous...

Charlotte Bobcats coach Larry Brown says he plans to contact Allen Iverson, to try to talk him out of his intent to retire. Don't confuse that with Brown recruiting Iverson to be a Bobcat. Brown has maintained throughout this process...

(By Rick Bonnell, rbonnell@charlotteobserver.com) The more coach Larry Brown trusts his bench, the more the Charlotte Bobcats win. That's what the data show 14 games into the season: Three of the four games in which non-starters played the most minutes coincides with three of the Bobcats' four victories.

Charlotte Bobcats coach Larry Brown is demanding and meticulous. Sometimes that's mistaken for inflexible, and that's not the same thing. Case in point: Gerald Wallace and Tyson Chandler told me Brown has trimmed back the variety of plays he's using...

The Bills, Eric Wood, Broken Leg, Video. Look for #70 to enter the screen and look at his leg bend in an unnatural direction. Warning: It is pretty graphic. Hat tip Larry Brown Sports.

Is it possible that this is the worst year in the history of the New York Knicks? Sure, the years of Larry Brown and Isiah Thomas were atrocious, but at least it was still a team worth talking about it. They weren’t going to contend for playoff spots, but at least how bad they got was a fun topic. This year’s Knick team is just sad all the way around. They’ll try to make this season...
