"Uncertain" is the official word. Wonder if you Sixers, Clippers, UCLA Bruins, Kansas etc have heard that before.
Larry Browns status is an official to be determined.
In the meantime Nate McMillian is available, but now the Sonics have said they want an answer in 10 days or so. Ditto Flip Saunders, who is said to be lurking around for the Pistons job. Can't blame any NBA coach, it's a great situation to step into. Everyone back. Surprised Phildo didn't consider it.
Its just ESPN and their usual pot stirring with no sources named, but:
"It's believed that Pistons owner Bill Davidson, before committing to bring Brown back for the third season on his original five-year contract, wants assurances from Brown that he's healthy enough to coach after missing 17 games last season -- and also that Brown truly wants to be in Detroit after a season of constant speculation that the 64-year-old was planning his exit.
Davidson is still said to be fuming after months of Brown links to the New York Knicks, Los Angeles Lakers and Cleveland Cavaliers, with the inference being that Brown didn't do enough to discourage such stories from becoming a distraction to his players."
