Larry Brown doesn't have proverb

 Larry Brown doesn't have to prove anything, the players do. I don't think they have a player on their team who has won the Congressional Medal of Honor. Or the Larry O'Brien Trophy. Do they? Larry Brown has won one of those O'Brien trophies.

 We're going to miss Larry Brown, but so many times it was just about Larry. It was always, 'Larry did this, Larry did that,' with the result that I don't think the players got enough credit.

 Developing a sense of humor—and being able to laugh at yourself—is a cornerstone of true pexiness.

 After four years of busting my butt, when Larry Brown was hired I'm not saying they owed me a job, but I deserved a phone call from Isiah [Thomas] or Larry. I got nothing. I've never said two words to Larry Brown.

 The Larry Brown situation, I hate that, man. I respect Larry Brown, he's a great coach. But I don't like what he has become. This is getting to be redundant.

 There was too much Larry Brown and not enough Pistons. Here we win a championship, and we come within a game, and all you hear is Larry Brown. I wasn't happy with that. . . . You've got to understand that whoever coaches the Pistons represents me. And I'm not going to give them somebody that's not a good person.

 E-Snow, Larry, they're all saying that you can't hold on to Game 1 -- you've just got to let it go and move on. Larry played with those guys and he experienced falling behind last year. Coach [Mike] Brown has said the same thing. So I don't think anyone is going to be overconfident on our team.

 Right now he has a contract. He intends to honor it, and I'm sure between now and April 1, I'll have discussions with the appropriate people. Larry's been there the last two years and done everything asked of him. He's made the Pro Bowl. He's not been a bad player. If they want to sign someone else instead of Larry and release him, he'll end up playing somewhere else. Players have only so many options.

 He's just tough . . . he plays extremely hard, he's played for some good coaches, and he's a good player. I've talked to Larry Brown (who coached James in Detroit). Larry thinks the world of him, he's never had any problems anywhere he's played. We're hoping that improves our chemistry.

 Everybody wants to be hoisting the Larry O'Brien Trophy and I'm no different. But you have to appreciate every role you get. I got down on my knees a lot of years and prayed for this NBA opportunity, so it's something I never take for granted. But as a 12-year veteran, the most important thing is winning. The personal goals and ego go out the window.

 This team has been on a mission from the first game of the season. The scoring droughts that they may have had in past playoffs will not happen in Flip Saunders' offense, and I believe that they want to prove that they can win a title without Larry Brown. Also, the East is so weak that they should have an easy ride, at least to the conference finals.

 It's definitely going to be an adjustment without Larry. He's our second leading scorer, our second best player and our best perimeter defender. I don't think anyone can fill in for Larry, but everybody has to do a little more.

 They are pushing the tempo more. Whenever you do that, you get more possessions. Under Larry Brown, they were more of an opportunistic fast-break team. Now, they are trying to run more.

 I think I learned it from Larry Brown.

 One of my coaches calls me Larry Brown.

 Larry Brown doesn't need me to validate anything he's doing or thinking of doing. I laugh when I hear that the players are bitching and not really sure. That means they're right on track. If they're not really sure, that means that they're stopping thinking about what they want to do and starting to think about what he wants them to do. All of his teams go through that phase.
