From Bonnell`s Blog Charlotte Bobcats coach Larry Brown -- arguably the team's greatest asset at this point -- said he'd be anxious about an ownership change that results in Michael Jordan no longer running the basketball operation. 布朗爺抱怨著球隊目前最重要的大事：老闆想賣球隊。他擔心高層人士的改變，會讓老喬 離開籃球事務執行的位子。 Brown also said he needs Jordan fully engaged by running the team. Jordan wasn't in Charlotte Thursday, when the Bobcats worked out lottery picks Stephen Curry of Davidson and Gerald Henderson of Duke. 布朗爺同時表示，他希望老喬能全力投入球隊的運作（這樣好嗎？）。昨天試訓樂透選秀 Curry與Henderson時，老喬並不在場。 "He's special and great to be around. We need him engaged and involved,'' Brown said of Jordan Friday. "If he's gone, he's the guy who hired me. You don't know who'd be coming in here (to run the team) and how they feel abouu the job we did, our capabilities. 「有他在身邊是很棒、很特別的，我們需要他參與、融入。」「如果他走了，他可是給我 這個工作的人啊。你不知道誰會代替他的位置，也不知道新來的會怎樣看待我們的能力以 及我們的工作成果。」 "But I have no control over that. I'm going to do the best I can. Our staff's going to do the best it can to get us better.'' 「不過這不是我可以控制的，我會盡力最到最好。我們的團隊也將會盡力。」 So would Brown be less comfortable coaching the Bobcats in Jordan's absence? 所以代表布朗爺會對執教一個沒有老喬的山貓隊感到不舒服？ "It depends on who it would be,'' Brown said of new management. "But I came here because of Michael.'' 「這取決於新人（管理階層）是誰。不過我可是因為老喬而來的。」 The Observer first reported that majority owner Bob Johnson has retained a sports investment banker to look for bids for controlling interest in the team. NBA commissioner David Stern's comments about the Bobcats, at a press conference Thursday, suggest a sale is inevitable. 報導曾指出主要股東Bob Johnson找了個銀行的投資理財專員，詢問其他人對於這支球隊 的興趣與價錢。執行長David Stern也在記者會評論到山貓隊，這也許暗示賣球隊是一個 必然的結果。 Jordan, a minority partner with control of basketball decisions, has said in the past he'd be interested in majority control. Jordan hasn't commented lately on how interested he'd be in buying the team. 老喬曾表示他對於當球隊大股東的興趣，不過最近並沒有針對這件事回應。 Brown addressed several other issues Friday: 布朗爺也在週五討論到以下幾點： -- He said he's still receptive to coaching Allen Iverson, who'll be an unrestricted free agent this summer, but wonders whether the Bobcats -- a team far from championship contention -- is the right fit for Iverson this late in his career. Brown coached Iverson in Philadelphia in what was a successful, but sometimes combustible, relationship. 他說他仍願意執教今夏將成為完全自由球員的Allen Iverson，不過認為山貓不適合作為 小艾生涯的終點，因為山貓還不是支能衝擊冠軍的球隊。 -- He said rookie Alexis Ajinca, currently working out in Dallas, needs to be more coachable next season. Brown said Ajinca didn't handle not playing very well. Brown now thinks it would have been beneficial for Ajinca to play more last season in the development league. 他表示最近在達拉斯訓練的新秀Alexis Ajinca需要在下一個球季變的更好教一點。布朗 爺說他對於無法打球這個狀況處理得不是很好。布朗爺開始認為也許下一季讓他在發展聯 盟有多一點上場時間會對他比較好。 -- He said veteran center Nazr Mohammed was probably disrespected by not playing more last season. Brown commended Mohammed for how hard he's working this off-season to, in effect, force more playing time out of the coaching staff. 他表示老鳥中鋒Nazr Mohammed應該獲得多一點上場時間。他也證實回教人這個休季的努 力，也讓教練團必須給他多一點上場時間。 More detail to follow. Stay tuned. -- 理直，氣和。 --
