Luckily coach of the year Mike Brown! Lebron James is only Cleveland Cavaliers one-man team. No team-work on defense. Very luckily his team record. Ben Wallace always on the bench (He should guarding Dwight Howard). No defense strategy against defense. Poor man & strategy rotation! A boastful Mike Brown acted and feel like he is genius in basketball!

A thread posted on impulse after one's seemingly unpleasant patronage towards an NBA team who lost to the better NBA team.
Its up to GM Danny Ferry and the Board to decide on Mike Brown's fate. But in retrospect, firing a coach (looking for a better one) is very difficult and finding the replacement could spell more trouble for the Cavaliers considering Mike Brown's contribution and to the established system already in place.
A change of personnel is needed around LeBron James. There is talk of Yao going to Ohio and acquiring the services of John Salmons and Chris Andersen floating about.

It's not just about the coach, it's about the players. Do you seriously expect LeBron alone to carry the Cavs to an NBA title? He's a good player, but he's not Superman and he's human. As someone said, great players win games, but great teams win titles, that's the point. The Cavs are not actually a team, at least one able to become champion. They need at least another shooter who can make the difference like LeBron and add to the genius of the latter. On another note, LeBron himself might already be used to being the lone star in the team and that's no good at all. As I said previously not even Jordan won championships by himself, he had an excellent supporting cast.

The Magic are just a better team than Cleveland. LeBron can only guard one man at a time and Delonte West and Mo Williams are too small to match up with Rashard Lewis and Turkoglu. Then the Magic can bring in Pietrus and play with three wings that have height and length and they can all stroke it. Ben Wallace can't stop Dwight Howard and neither could Big Z or Varejo. The Magic are a tough match-up for a lot of teams since they have so many shooters.
In the regular season the Cavs had Mo Williams creating his own shot and playing well but in the playoffs their offense kind of devolved into everyone standing around while LeBron tried to create. But in the playoffs it's about match-ups and the Magic are just a better teamLast edited by rikhardur; 05-31-2009, 05:56 PM.LOL

hilarious!!!! I love the headline... Mike Brown firing himself.... hehehehe!!!... you'd never fail to make me laugh joel!!!!!
I agree with rikhardur... Lebron does need a supporting cast and a player of the same level as him.... Jordan won those championships because he had a good supporting cast of role players and a player of almost the same level beside him, Scottie Pippen.... even if the Cavs made it to the finals... Lakers are going to beat them... not because of Kobe but because of a term 'team basketball' .... people should have learn from the 2007 NBA finals... Lebon vs. the Big Three of San Antonio... you know who won at the end...

In a Chris Broussard article: "Jerry West, one of the greatest team builders in league history, said the Cavs would be a lottery team without James."
It's obvious. But in my opinion, at least three names (D. West, Mo Williams and A. Varejao) can be the good pieces of a title-winning team.5 out 6 scientists say Russian roulette is safe.

what the...??? the title of this thread is misleading. why would mike brown fire himself? orlando is a better shooting team than the cavs. how can you beat a team with pair of 6'10's shooting the 3's, slashing the lanes for teardrops and dishing assists to outside shooters who are standing 6'5" or 6'6"? mike brown could have changed his strategy by not focusing more on lebron. instead, he could have utilized sasha pavlovic, wally szcherbiak, danny gibson among others. one significant missing player was mo williams."There are only three kinds of mathematicians: those who can count, and those who can not."

One of the aspects is also LeBron's attitude, he can't expect to always be the go-to guy, as that influences his team. If he changes his atitude to a more centrifugal thing, the team would only benefit, as they would more often step up and become mentally stronger competitors. The black hole thing never worked.
I just read LeBron never congratulates or shakes hands of the players he lost to, that's no good at all
