08:12 AM ET 03.23 | Larry Brown is back in the news, and he's taking Allen Iverson with him. If anyone knows the polarizing Iverson it would be Brown, who coached "The Answer" from 1997-2003. Brown would like to see Iverson finish his career in the NBA and hopes one team will provide one last opportunity for the guard to finish his career the right way after failing to make anything out of his stint in Turkey. ... "Before I got fired I went to the NBA coaches' meeting ... a lot of the NBA people, the executives that were there, talked to me about trying to figure out a way to get Allen to finish out his career in our league. He wanted to come with me [Allen Iverson], but Michael [Jordan] didn't think it the right thing to do because we had young guards and he wanted them to develop. I think for him to end his career in Turkey after what he did for our league is tragic."

Brooke Lopez then Iverson, Im glad Jordan manned up and canned Larry.

Larry Brown was developing young guards?????

He did say Jordan wanted to develope the young guards.

Iverson wouldnt have hurt this team at all. If anyone was going to get anything out of him it would have been Larry Brown.

Jordan probably just didn't want to pay for Iverson. Even Silas had to ask for another gaurd and ended up with Garret Temple.
