Maybe someone can teach Amare the basic fundamentals of playing defense such as position and footwork.
Amare does not play defense because he gets in foul trouble.
I love a coach that can teach and players that take pride in their fundamentals.

Popovich is a Larry Brown student. Pop was Browns assistant in San Antonio.
Larry Lover? Dude took the BobCats to the playoffs. Bobcats demise was not on him. They had roster problems.
Larry is a great coach who did an awful job here.
Given the teams track record and working for the vile Isiah its no wonder he failed. I can't think of any more dysfunctional coach/management relationship that lasted less than 12 months.
Please understand I am not absolving larry for his part. He had a very long history of success in most of his stops at one point or another warts and all.
