Brown Calls His Next Shot...Reached earlier Monday by The Associated Press as he watched a movie with his daughter, Brown refused comment other than to say: "If I'm healthy, my goal is to be the coach of the Detroit Pistons. That's the only thing that's really real."
In recent days, Brown has said repeatedly that he intends to check into a hospital after the season is over because of a serious medical condition. The condition has developed as a result of midseason hip surgery he underwent, and Brown wants a medical evaluation. However, sources maintain that while Brown's medical condition might keep him from coaching again, they do not believe it is serious enough to keep him from working as a team president.
While I certainly respect this move from a health standpoint, it would've been nice for Brown and Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert to try and be more discreet about this situation. I guess I shouldn't expect anything less from Brown, who's always been more enamored with his next job than his current one.
