Larry has zero credibility in this department. The way he backed out of his Pistons contract was shameful-- holding Bill Davidson and Joe Dumars at gunpoint, and eventually taking off with the ransom. Larry, if you didnt want to coach the Pistons any longer, you should have just said "thank you very much for the opportunity, it was a wonderul ride, but I feel I need to move on now. Good luck. Everyone would have respected that. Instead you started things in the media -- in the middle of a playoff run -- by saying "if Joe D will have me back, I will be back..." Where did that come from? If your health was failing, go to Joe D and tell him that. Act like a man. Not a sniveling extortionist. And we haven't even discussed the half-dozen other teams you abandoned in your career, in mid-stream. You are a great coach and basketball mind, Larry. Maybe a good husband and father. But you certainly should not comment about honoring a professional commitment. Too bad. You could have been a wonderful example to so many people. People like Billy Donovan, perhaps...

You're trying to imply that his wife didn't want him to go to Orlando because she preferred Gainesville. It is clear to me that she only stepped in when she realized he was having second thoughts. I'll tell you this though, it sounds to me is that you should be working for the rag that follows major league ballplayers around to see if they can catch them having an affair. In other words, you manufacture news... “Billy Donovan was distraught Saturday morning, and his wife took action.”

I don't see this as her "calling the shots" and manipulating the situation to force him to change his mind.
