Herb Brown (born March 14, 1936) is an American basketball coach and the brother of Hall of Fame coach Larry Brown. He is the former head coach of the Detroit Pistons (1976–78). == Career == Brown was named head coach of the NBA's Detroit Pistons during the 1975-76 NBA season, replacing Ray Scott, who'd gone 17-25. The 39-year-old Brown, who'd been an assistant to Scott in Detroit, went 19-21 in his first season with the Pistons, who won 10 of their last 11 games of the regular season. He then guided the team into the second round of the NBA playoffs where the Pistons lost to Golden State, four games to two. The following season, the Pistons went 44-38 under Brown, before losing in the first round of the playoffs to the Golden State Warriors. The Pistons fired Brown on December 15, 1977, after a 9-15 start to the 1977-78 NBA season, replacing him with the team's 32-year-old general manager, Bob Kauffman, who went 29-29 as head coach. The Bobcats are Brown's third team on which he has served under brother Larry. Together, they helped coach the Pistons to the NBA championship in 2004, and led the Philadelphia 76ers to the 2001 NBA Finals. Brown has also served as an assistant coach for several teams, including the Portland Trail Blazers, Houston Rockets, Indiana Pacers, Phoenix Suns, and Atlanta Hawks. He also coached overseas, most notably in Spain in the early 1990s. At the college level, Brown was head basketball coach at Stony Brook University (SUNY Stony Brook) from 1964–69, earning Coach of the Year honors following the 1969 season. Brown served as head coach at C.W. Post (of Long Island University) from 1972–74, going 21-5 and 13-12 over two seasons. On September 3, 2014, Brown was named an assistant coach at Portland.〔http://portlandpilots.com/news/2014/9/3/MBB_0903142116.aspx?path=mbball〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Herb Brown」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
