Nets assistant John Loyer given permission to interview with Pistons

Colin Stephenson of the Newark Star Ledger reports:

"Assistant coach John Loyer has been given permission to talk to the Detroit Pistons about joining new head coach Lawrence Frank’s staff and he is expected to decide in the next day or two whether he will be leaving the Nets, according to a person familiar with the Pistons’ interest in Loyer. The person requested not to be identified because they are not authorized to speak for Loyer or the Pistons."

Loyer is the third name reportedly drawing interest from Frank. Former D-League coach Dee Brown and former Celtics assistant Roy Rogers are also in the mix.
