From the ownership side to the coaching staff and the players, we are all excited about the many strategic changes taking place in developing the culture of our organization. We are paying great attention to the details that make for a united team. Our roster features veteran players as well as younger talent with the coaching staff necessary to grow that talent to its maximum. The front office has been completely overhauled, supplementing our new key management with the best in scouting, analytics and consultants. Our brand new HSS Training Center right here in Brooklyn means we are now 100% part of this borough, and our new D-League team will allow us to develop fresh talent, both in terms of players and coaching staff. These are just a few examples of the steps we are taking in pursuit of the highest standards both on and off the court. This season, our mantra is “Brooklyn Grit.” The Brooklyn community inspires us to always work hard, to put in the hours, to pay our dues, and to fight without wavering in our journey toward sustainable success.

  • Memphis State: Quite a Commitment
    Memphis State: quite a commitment By Zack McMillin Sunday, March 30, 2003 Larry Finch could flat shoot the cover off a basketball. Dirty Red, as they called him over in Orange Mound, had hands strong as a bricklayer's, a barrel chest and arms built sturdy in the old- fashioned way, by play and by work and by nature. Nobody ever accused him of explosive leaping ability, but Finch could hover longer than one might imagine. Because of his strength and his gift for judging trajectory, every time Larry Finch took a shot, it had a chance. "He put more spin on the ball," says Larry Kenon, one of his famous teammates, "than anybody I ever played with." So when Ronnie Robinson tipped the ball to him on the late fall evening of Dec. 1, 1970, Finch took four dribbles, eyed the basket 25 feet away, rose up, pointed his right elbow at the rim and loaded the basketball with backspin. History does not tell us if the 7,123 at the Mid-South Coliseum that night made like a Melrose crowd and let out a collective "whoosh!" when Finch shot. Newspaper accounts do tell us what happened next. The ball ripped into the cotton netting, and the Coliseum exploded with joy that had been bottled up too long. Six seconds into his first varsity game for the Memphis State Tigers basketball team, Larry Finch had the first two points of a career that would produce 1,869 points in only three seasons. He finished with 24 that night against California-Davis, and, in the first game for charismatic new coach Gene Bartow, the Tigers scored more points -- 99 -- than they had in any game of the previous five seasons.

    RODROD DEDEAUXDEDEAUX -- THETHE ARCHITECTARCHITECT OFOF USCUSC BASEBALLBASEBALL On January 5, 2006, the USC baseball program suffered the loss of Rod Dedeaux, one of the greatest college coaches ever, who passed away at the age of 91. Not only was Dedeaux the main architect for the success of the USC baseball program, but also one of the great ambassadors for college baseball and amateur baseball in international competition. In his 45-year tenure at USC (1942-86), Dedeaux led the Trojans to 11 national championships and 28 conference titles. He posted an overall record of 1,332-571-11 for a superb .699 winning percentage. At his retirement, he had won more games than any other college baseball coach (he currently ranks 10th among Division I coaches). His teams from 1970-74 won five straight NCAA championships, a record that may never be broken. No other school has won more than two in a row. Two personal honors for Dedeaux, which are quite fitting considering his accomplishments, came in 1999 when he was named “Coach of the Century” by both Baseball America and Collegiate Baseball. As part of the 50th anniversary of the College World Series in 1996, Dedeaux was named the head coach of the All-Time CWS team by a panel of former World Series coaches, media and college baseball officials. In 1999, he was presented with keys to the city of Omaha (home to the College World Series). Dedeaux was named Coach of the Year six times by the American Baseball Coaches Association and was inducted into the organization’s Hall of Fame in 1970.

    THE ABA YEARS A LOOK BACK AT THE ABA YEARS THE COACHES 1967-69 - CLIFF HAGAN 1969-70 - CLIFF HAGAN & MAX WILLIAMS 1970-71 - MAX WILLIAMS & BILL BLAKELEY 1971-72 - TOM NISSALKE 1972-73 - BABE MCCARTHY & DAVE BROWN 1973-74 - TOM NISSALKE 1974-76 - BOB BASS THE STARS CLIFF HAGAN FIRST PLAYER-COACH Player-Coach Cliff Hagan was a big reason for the Chaparrals early success … he was a fi ve-time All-Star with the St. Louis Hawks prior to arriving in Dallas … his physical style was perfect for the ABA and in his fi rst season of 1967-68, Hagan averaged 18.2 points per game, leading to another All-Star selection. He was relieved of his coaching duties in January 1970, when General Manager Max Williams took over as head coach. JOHN BEASLEY 1968, 1969 & 1970 ABA ALL-STAR John Beasley was the biggest surprise for the Dallas Chaparrals in their inaugural season … in his fi rst year, Beasley averaged 19.7 points per game … he made the ABA All-Star Team each of his fi rst three seasons and was named the MVP of the 1969 All-Star Game … he also garnered All-ABA Second Team honors in 1968 and 1969 … Beasley ranks second in Spurs ABA history in games, points, fi eld goals made and fi eld goals attempted … for his career with the Chaparrals, Beasley averaged 17.9 points and 11.0 rebounds while shooting .494 from the fi eld and .828 from the free throw line. RON BOONE 1968-69 ABA ALL-ROOKIE FIRST TEAM A major bright spot of the Chaparrals’ 1968-69 season was rookie phenom Ron Boone … Boone attracted very little attention during his college career at Idaho State, but that all changed when he got to the pros … Boone fi nished second to Warren Armstrong of Oakland for Rookie of the Year accolades … in his rookie season, Boone averaged 18.9 points, 5.1 rebounds and 3.6 assists while shooting .434 from the fi eld and .812 from the free throw line.
