NEW YORK - Knicks owner James Dolan of Cablevision met last
night with prospective coach Larry Brown, who had wanted to
speak first with interim coach Herb Williams.
The visit to Brown's home in East Hampton, N.Y., by Dolan
and team president Isiah Thomas represented the next step
in the Knicks' wooing of Brown, a pursuit that figures to
end in the next few days.
"I'm not going to comment on how it went," Brown said.
The Knicks had not formally offered the job to Brown as of
Saturday, but the implied message from Thomas was clear: If
Brown wants the job, it's his.
Brown had said he wanted to speak to Williams before
talking to Dolan, but Williams was out of town for the
weekend and Dolan was in the Hamptons.
"We're going to go to dinner tomorrow somewhere in New York
with Herb Williams," Brown told the Associated Press. "It's
important for me to talk to him."
Brown said he was angered last night when a television crew
rang his doorbell after Dolan and Thomas had left.
Williams, who has been asked by the Knicks to stay publicly
silent, did not return a call to his cell phone.
Before Dolan offers a contract, he wanted a face-to-face
reading with the nomadic coach who parted acrimoniously
with his last two owners - Detroit's Bill Davidson and the
76ers' Ed Snider.
