Larry Brown Wants Allen Iverson To Join Sixers Front Office

How would you like to see Allen Iverson as part of the Philadelphia 76ers organization again? Former Sixers coach, Larry Brown, wants to make it happen and word is through the team’s part-owner David Blitzer and Iverson’s manager, Brown has spent months lobbying to have Iverson hired as an assistant general manager

“I just wish there was some way that he could be involved,” Brown said in a telephone interview Friday. “Just teach him about the organization and let him figure it out, figure out how he can help. He can certainly judge talent. He certainly has people’s respect. Kids will listen to anything he said. He’s certainly bright as hell. Just teach him how to be involved with the NBA, whatever level you want, but I think ultimately I’d like to see him get into management. I think he’d be a huge asset.”

There’s no word as to where Brown’s suggestions have gotten him but Iverson has expressed interest in a front office position in the past. “I would like to be even in that war room – even if they don’t go with my decision or whatever, just to have an opinion and putting out what I think and trusting the organization to do what’s right.”

I feel as though the likelihood of this actually happening is slim (you can read HERE to see why I think they’d vote against it) but to have Larry Brown, of all people, go to battle for Allen Iverson is pretty awesome.
