Newz Forum: BASKETBALL: Nets exercise option for next year on Frank contract

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Lawrence Frank will be back to coach the New Jersey Nets next season, and possibly longer if an agreement on a long-term contract can be reached.

Earlier this week, the Nets guaranteed that Frank, 33, would be back without an interim tag when they picked up his contract option for next season.

"We plan on negotiating with him to see if we can do a long-term contract," Nets president Rod Thorn said Friday.

It's nice to see a team loking for some stability. A rarity lately in the NBA.

yeah its kinda ridiculous.....every year...hmmm we didnt win the championship i guess we need a new coach??

I just can't figure it out, myself. Didn't every team in the atlantic division switch coaches during the past year? What gives?
