Posted Dec 22, 2010
Charlotte Bobcats Chairman and CEO Michael Jordan announced today that Larry Brown is stepping down as head coach of the team, effective immediately. "I met with Coach Brown two weeks ago about the team’s performance and what we could do to improve it. We met again this morning after practice.
