Larry Brown: I Could Coach Iverson Again

[MapleLeaf]

From realgm.com

Bobcats coach Larry Brown hinted at reuniting with Allen Iverson in an interview on Friday.

"I love Allen," Brown told the Associated Press. "Everybody documents our issues, but think of the body of work when he played for me. Pretty incredible. And I know he has a big chip on his shoulder now. He told me he'd been to Charlotte."

Iverson will be an unrestricted free agent this summer.

Charlotte would likely have to clear cap space in order to sign Iverson, and the guard would have to agree to take less money and a secondary role.

Iverson was unhappy with a reduced role in Detroit at the end of this past season.

"I want him go to where he knows he can win," Brown said. "I think from my standpoint, I don't know if we're ready to win at the level I think a kid at his age, what he's done, should have. I want to see him go where he could win a championship."

Leon Rose, Iverson's agent, claims that his client is willing to play for Brown again.

"A.I. has the utmost respect for coach Brown as both a person and coach," Rose said. "I believe he would definitely be interested in playing for him again. Seeing first hand coach Brown's ability to build a culture and a team that plays the right way, he knows Charlotte will be a team to contend with as they continue to add pieces.

"I'm sure at the appropriate time these things will be discussed."

Iverson was named MVP while playing under Brown in Philadelphia earlier this decade.

Make it happen MJ. I miss AI and LB a lot. They gave us hope. But AI had to go. I still want him to be a sixer.
