If Cleve Loses Is Mike Brown's Job On The Line?

[jjgold]

I say yes after losing 4-1 and blowing multiple 20+ leads. I think you have to blame the coach for not making proper adjustments.

[nysmoneyman]

no...front office needs to still build around james

every team in the NBA would love to have their record this year

the coach is very safe

[paco]

from coach of the year to unemployed!

[Kyleben]

No he is not, but he should be. He has made some unexplainable decisions in the playoffs.

[SexyMit]

I sure hope he is... This is getting ridiculous!

[Thor4140]

Jordan wouldn be giving up 20 point leads

[ZBOIZ]

He actually should be

[ZBOIZ]

He doesn't even draw up any plays, his assistant coach does. Watch the timeouts, he's on the bench while his assistant coach is pointing things out on the clipboard...

[Vesuvius]

I think he should be too, he just doesn't come off as a professional coach to me.

[pavyracer]

I hope they fire every black coach. They all suck. Cavs, Celtics, Hawks, Hornets are an embarrassment to the league.

[nysmoneyman]

lets let him coach the clippers next year

[alukk]

i say no, but he should

[Mac4Lyfe]

No he is not, but he should be. He has made some unexplainable decisions in the playoffs.

What can he do when he clearly doesn't have the talent. It's not even close. If you were playing pick up basketball and you were captain, who would you choose first.

Lebron, Howard, Hedo, Lewis, Pietrus, Courtney Lee, Gortat, Rafer, than Mo. Thats 7 players before another Cav player.

Danny Ferry is the one that should be fired. Orlando has made Cleveland their bitch the last 2.5 years. Did Ferry not see the talent differential? Why didn't he pick up Shaq when he could have and only give up Sasha and Wally? Brown is the fall guy but Ferry is the real idiot.

[BrandonLaz]

There is NO WAY at all he gets fired. The Cavs had the best record in the East this season and made it to the Conference Finals. He will not even be feeling the heat unless he gets to the Conference Finals for 3 straight seasons without sniffing the NBA Finals. Otherwise he will be just fine and if in the next 3 years he gets to the NBA Finals he is secure for another couple of years after that before he has to win a championship. He is a horrible coach though I have thought that since his first season in Cleveland. Oh well when you have one of the greatest players of All-Time it sure makes you look like a good coach.

[Slim]

Brown should be fired for being retarded.

[pavyracer]

What the **** are you guys talking about? The coach is the Alfa and the Omega of a team. He has enough talent to win. He just can't coach. Why doesn't he post up Ilgauskas and Varejao to get Howard in foul trouble and then open the lanes for Lebron to drive in?

[Brock Landers]

the guy doesn't "coach", its all freestyle out there, College coaches coach, pro "coaches" baby sit

[Mac4Lyfe]

Orlando has won 11 of the last 15 against Cleveland plus Orlando blew them out by 40 points and Ferry didn't see this coming???

[Mac4Lyfe]

Guys... Mike Brown has gotten blood out of a bunch of turnips. This team won 66 games and made it to the ECF with Andy Verajao as a starter? Guys like Delonte West who couldn't start for any other team (but he brings a lot of energy) Big Ben who can't score for chit. Mo Williams was run out of Milwaukee and really should be coming off a bench as a 6 man.

Mike Brown brought a defensive mindset to Cleveland from San Antonio and Popovich. No way in hell would Cleveland have the succes they've had without Mike Brown. The reason why he doesn't run the offense was because he used to run it and it sucked. He brought in Koester's who's an offensive genius and he basically is delegating versus trying to do it all. People gave him a hard time when he was doing it all now you criticize him because he's delegated.

Mike Brown is one of the hottest up and coming coaches in the league. If he had a little help outside of Lebron he would be able to do work.

This series may be a loss for Cleveland but they really played hard. They've been up double digits in every game but 1 but don't know how to step on the Magic's throats. The Magic really has not dominated the Cav's, quite the contrary, the Cav's have dominated the Magic at times. The lack of talent has shown up by the bench which has given Orlando the edge. Each game has been decided by just a few points.

[ZBOIZ]

Mac4lyfe

Save it!! This guy sucks

[Mac4Lyfe]

ECF with only 1 star and he sucks

He's gotten further than 98% of the other teams out there. I guess you think Popovich sucks as well since he recommended him.

[pavyracer]

Why didn't he post up Ilgauskas and Varejao sooner? They are both dominating the boards ans scoring now. I should have been their coach.

[lakerboy]

lol lol lol

[Dark Horse]

Terrible coach. The 4Q tonight was a joke. They won the game, so you can't say anything. But not one person here couldn't have 'coached' that 4Q for the Cavs.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Why didn't he post up Ilgauskas and Varejao sooner? They are both dominating the boards ans scoring now. I should have been their coach.

Because they both might trip on their tampons

Both of those guys and Ben are all soft as cotton. They are absolutely scared to death of Howard and are getting pushed out of the key like pussies. Z is spending most of his time 35 feet from the basket. He doesn't want his vagina to get bruised in the paint.

[lakerboy]

hes not even their coach anyways lebron is

[sofos]

I would hope not. He 's done a good job imo.

[hoopster42]

no, talk about an overreaction!

[hoopster42]

hes not even their coach anyways lebron is

actually the 2 asst's run the show, malone and the other guy
