Larry Brown files grievance against Knicks
The Dirt:
Brown, who says the Knicks should pay him $40 million, filed the grievance Wednesday, the New York Daily News and New York Post reported. The Knicks, who fired the coach after one season, claim they’re not obligated to pay the full amount because Brown violated terms of his contract.
The Knicks contend Brown broke Madison Square Garden policy with his roadside interviews, a decision the team believes could save them millions.
The Spin: This is hardly unexpected or surprising. The contract they agreed to even had a provision for something like this, saying that David Stern would serve as arbitrator in the event of a grievance. Larry Brown has quite a scam going here - sign a nice contract, get yourself fired after a year so you can move on and do it again in another city.
