I haven't heard much about Grandmama since retiring from New York.

======================================================

New Chicago Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau is looking for an assistant coach and a name on his list, according to the Daily Herald, is Larry Johnson, who was taken with the No. 1 overall pick in the 1991 NBA draft by the Charlotte Hornets.

Johnson stayed in the league till 2001, spending time with the New York Knicks as well and scoring 11,450 points along the way.

The Herald notes that Johnson "is interested in the job and visited the team recently."

Thibodeau and Johnson worked together in New York from 1996-2001 when Thibodeau worked under coach Jeff Van Gundy.

Off topic: Larry Johnson is selling some kind of water. I was in Greensboro at the barbershop and these kids came up to me trying to sell me some water, and said it was a business by LJ.

Anyways, good for LJ. Grandmama was one of my favorite players back in the days.

    • I'd rather not have Burns and draft good edge rushers. He wasn't worth the contract he got for a dude that could only rush the passer and frankly did a terrible job of it for us because whenever he did beat his blocker, he would whiff on the QB. Congrats to him for actually being able to wrap up the QB this year - it's the first time he has consistently been able to do it. The amount of teams that ran right at him while he was with us shows that teams realized he was an undersized edge and could get pushed backwards several yards on run plays. Having Dexter Lawrence next to you helps mask that problem
    • I mean, some of y'all keep on saying that, but the fact is is that he is the only Giant feasting. Burns is just better than many of us thought, myself included. Sometimes it just takes guys time to get to the top of their game, that's why I'm going to give our rookies a lot of grace. It might be a couple of years before they hit their stride (though it didn't take Burns that long). But I have been disappointed. Moreover, I suspect that they all might benefit by migrating to  a 4-3 base.  But Burns is what he is. It was ultimately bad timing IMO. After Scott Fitterer failed to take the two firsts, things were destined to go downhill. I think we should've kept Clowney for another year or so more than Burns, but it's all been fûcked up anyway, so nobody was probably going to make that much of a difference.
