76ers chairman Ed Snider says that the organization has had no contact with current Bobcats coach Larry Brown or any of his representatives.

Snider also denied reports that the team has made overtures to former Philadelphia guard, and current TNT announcer, Doug Collins.

Reports by both Yahoo! and the Philadelphia Inquirer have linked the 76ers to Brown.

"I don't know where this stuff comes from," Snider said Monday night. "I keep reading that [new Bobcats owner] Michael Jordan has said it'd be OK for Brown to leave [under certain circumstances]. But it's not coming from us. Nothing is coming from us."

Brown also denied the rumors following his team's elimination from the postseason on Monday night.
