Larry Brown Making Changes To Coaching Staff
15th September, 2005 - 7:29 am
Newark Star-Ledger - The Knicks may make one more roster move before training camp starts in 19 days, but in the meantime, Larry Brown's coaching staff is taking shape.

With assistant Mike Malone officially departing for Cleveland this week, where he'll essentially replace his father Brendan, Brown (who turned 65 Wednesday) is expected to add two members of his old Pistons staff with whom he shares North Carolina ties.

Dave Hanners, an assistant with Brown in Philadelphia and Detroit, and Phil Ford, who joined Brown's staff last season, will join the staff along with the man Brown replaced as head coach, Herb Williams, pending any last-minute snafus.

What their arrival means for returning assistants Mark Aguirre (Isiah Thomas' pal) and George Glymph is uncertain, although one or both could be reassigned within the organization. Brendan Suhr, who joined the staff three games into last season when Dick Helm was fired, is returning to his front-office job. [READ]
