working windfall in NYC

[Snoopy the Celtics Beagle]

I have to disagree, people.  I think Brown is overrated.  His 
meandering from team to team is not the result of a desire to see all 
that the NBA has to offer, it's the result of knowing just when he's 
about to wear out his welcome.  To me, he resembles nothing so much 
as the "man behind the curtain" in Oz, fooling people into thinking 
he's capable of more than he really is.  Larry Brown also can't seem 
to handle anyone other than himself being the star of the team.  I'll 
be first to admit I'm not at all sure who should be coaching the 
Celtics right now, but I'm reasonably certain that Brown is one who should NOT.

Having made the admission, my personal choice for coaching the team 
right now--knowing full well his age and health prohibit even 
considering it--is Tommy Heinsohn.  This team needs a simple defense 
and a running offense, and a coach who will demand the team play 
together.  Tommy's mindset--normally a little too overbearing for 
most modern teams--is perfect for this group.
