Patrick Ewing told the New York Post on Sunday that he would love to coach the Nets.

Ewing has been an assistant coach for the last seven seasons.

"Of course," Ewing said. "I would be back home. I still live in New Jersey. I just want an opportunity. Yes, I would love to coach the Nets."

New Jersey fired Lawrence Frank after the team opened up the season with an 0-16 record.
