Now all the Nets need is an offensive coordinator.</p>

I have had my criticisms of Lawrence Frank in the past, but he's a damn good coach and he works his ass off. It's a well deserved extension.

Good stuff. Where is he among the longest tenured coaches in the east?

I think he's third behind Eddie Jordan (Wizards) and Scott Skiles (Bulls).</p>
