Hornets to introduce Monty Williams as next head coach
Basketball Betting Lines
06/07/2010 -
New Orleans, LA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New Orleans Hornets will reportedly
introduce Monty Williams as their next head coach on Tuesday.
According to The Times-Picayune, the two sides agreed on a three-year contract
with an option for a fourth year.
Williams, only 38 years old, has been an assistant coach for the Portland Trail Blazers since 2005. He will become the youngest head coach in the NBA.
New Orleans started the 2009-10 season with Byron Scott at the helm. However,
a 3-6 start led to his firing. General manager Jeff Bower stepped in as
interim head coach and led the club to a Southwest Division-worst 37-45
record.
The Hornets were in need of a coach after Bower resigned to concentrate on his
front office duties.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch
Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.
Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
