<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">NEW YORK (AP) -- Speeding up his courtship of Larry Brown, New York Knicks president Isiah Thomas planned to meet Thursday with the 64-year-old unemployed coach. Knicks spokesman Barry Watkins offered no other details of the meeting expect to say it would take place at an undisclosed time and location. It was unclear whether the Knicks were already prepared to offer a contract to Brown, who reached a severance agreement with the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday. The Knicks have made no secret of their desire to hire Brown, who would be coaching his eighth different NBA team if he accepts the job. Brown has expressed reservations in recent days about possibly nudging New York interim coach Herb Williams out of a job, and one of the challenges for Thomas will be to address Brown's concerns on that matter. Brown did not return a call Thursday seeking comment.</div> Source (Yahoo)
