North Jersey Media Group providing local news, sports & classifieds for Northern New Jersey! Yes, these NBA Finals are your life, Byron Scott, from the old Inglewood neighborhood to Morningside High, from Dr. Buss sitting upstairs to Jack Nicholson down on the floor, from his old pupils, Kobe and Shaq, this Staples Center scene has shaped his story and made this improbable Nets' run possible. Once Holmes lost the life in those legs and let the basketball out of his system after a season with the Harlem Showboats, Holmes turned to coaching in 1964: The State Industrial Center, a detention center for boys. What Holmes had lost for himself, he passed to his son in those genes, in those early years in Ogden when they worked together on a love for the game. www.northjersey.com /page.php?qstr=eXJpcnk3ZjczN2Y3dnFlZUVFeXkyNjkmZmdiZWw3Zjd2cWVlRUV5eTM4MzExMzImeXJpcnk3ZjcxN2Y3dnFlZUVFeXk2   (1421 words)

Washington Wizard The San Diego Union-Tribune Jordan had taken the offense to New Jersey, too, as an assistant to Byron Scott, and it was a key to the Nets' Finals appearances in 2002 and 2003. Jordan brought with him to Washington a stubborn belief in the Princeton offense, which he had learned from former Princeton coach Pete Carril when both were assistants with the Kings. Eddie Jordan has been able to sell his concept of a five-man, Princeton-style offense to his Wizards players in part because the team has been so bad for so long. www.signonsandiego.com /uniontrib/20050321/news_lz1s21wiz.html   (978 words)

Basketball Digest: Lacking Lakers: the competition is tight, but a George Mikan-led Minneapolis club is the unqualified worst NBA Finals team ever - Digits The two-time defending champion Lakers raced through the Western Conference playoffs with an 11-0 record, only to be swept by the Detroit Pistons in the NBA Finals after Lakers starting guards Magic Johnson and Byron Scott suffered injuries. While the 2001-02 Nets were not stricken with comparable injury setbacks, it is still difficult to compare various Finals losers based solely on their Finals' performances without taking into account the strength of the winning teams from each of those seasons. That Season each of the East's four teams had at least a.500 record and all four of the West's teams were below.500; the Ft. Wayne Pistons, Lakers, and Hawks each went 34-38 but St. Louis emerged from the Western playoffs to face Boston in the Finals. www.findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_m0FCJ/is_8_30/ai_102520549   (1598 words)

JockBio: Stephon Marbury Biography Stephon was telling everyone that the Nets were a team on the rise, and he felt that new coach Byron Scott was just the man to instill a winning attitude in his players.

JamBallsLady's NBA Team - Los Angeles Lakers Los Angeles Lakers was my favorite NBA team in the 1980s when Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, James Worthy, and Byron Scott played together to win NBA championship titles in 1985, 1987, and 1988.
