Now that the New Orleans Hornets have dismissed Byron Scott of his coaching duties there, one might wonder where the former NBA Coach of the Year will land. There will certainly be more coaching vacancies open up as the season continues, however all signs point to Byron getting some time to watch the games from the comfort of a studio. NBA TV and ESPN both reportedly may have interest in bringing Scott in for the meat of the NBA season, likely after Christmas. There are some die-hard Laker fans that believe after Phil Jackson (eventually) retires, Scott could be a suitable replacement as well. Stay tuned…

In other news, a Washington Post report earlier this week suggesting that Allen Iverson would be a good fit in Cleveland didn’t seem to amuse the Cavalier fans, or players. One source close to the team suggested that the Cavs “want no part of Chuck(Iverson’s nickname)”, and reiterated that the Cavs have their own troubled guard issues, regarding Delonte West.

Open Letter to the Hornets

July 27, 2009

Memo to the Hornets: DO SOMETHING.
Dear New Orleans Hornets,
You are a lucky one, a very lucky one.
Back in 2005, you managed to get a hold on the 4th overall pick of the draft. And unbelievably, unthinkably, someone was still available after three whole picks from other teams.
