Why does Mike Brown............

  • j_crazy
    it's his chic-let teeth.

    he can't close his mouth.

    sensitive teeth.

    Because he's either happy about something LeBron did or in awe of it.

    Maybe you should go to your English class instead of worrying about Coach Brown.

    And half of the pictures, if not all of them, he is talking or saying something.

    The better question is why did you actually go through the effort to search and post those links?

    Mike Brown is an awesome guy, seriously..

    People should appreciate what we had in a coach like him. He taught discipline and defense to this team and our 5 years under Brown were the best ever for the Cavs organization.

    Sure, it has a lot to do with LeBron, but Brown turned him into a good defender and made him focus on more than just offense.

    MB is a great guy and a great coach--that's just what happens in this business when you don't get the expected results.

    Exactly^

    It was definitely time to move forward, but it's a damn shame that everybody rips the guy because it's popular opinion that he was a "bad coach".

    I hardly ever agree with Ric Bucher, but his sentiments on Mike Brown were SPOT ON.

    He said Mike was closer to a great coach than he was a bad one, and that he's going to get a ton of interest from teams looking for a coach.

    I agree 100%

    The Cavs, particularly LeBron, needs a coach who will demand respect from them... Something Brown couldn't do even if he had tried, simply because he didn't have the "credentials"
  • SQ_Crazies
    Yeah, well, the people who think he was a bad coach are basically made up of the same group of people that don't get a whole lot of respect from me in a basketball discussion regardless--mostly based on other things they have said.

    He's a good coach, but Lebron would make even Eric Snow look like a good coach.
  • SQ_Crazies
    That's true to a point. Phil Jackson wouldn't be Phil Jackson without MJ, Pippen, Kobe, Shaq, Gasol and the countless other GOOD players he's coached.

    LeBron can also make a good coach look bad.

    If you don't think LeBron waved off plays from Mike Brown or did his own thing a majority of the time, I don't know what to tell you.

    Yeah, you're right. Pounding the ball at the top of the key is better than any play a coach could draw up.
  • SQ_Crazies
    I'm with sleeper on this one. I get what you're saying in saying that he can make a coach look bad too, but you look at the stat line that he puts up more consistently than anyone in the league and it's not making his coach look bad.
  • hoops23
    Stats aren't everything.

    It's the final product, and the Cavs failed to get the goal set forth accomplished.

    If you're saying that as long as LeBron gets his stats, everything is fine, then I guess I agree.. But I would like to think toward a bigger picture.. Something like a championship.

    And the way LeBron played under Mike Brown will never win a title.

    Of course, I do think Mike Brown employed Jamison about as wrong as possible, and I do think Shaq was an influence of that...

    Thats exactly the problem, Lebron cares about HIS STATS not what makes the team better.

  • SQ_Crazies
    This just in, the Cavs can't win a championship.

    When you say an individual player can't win a championship in a team sport, you sound like an idiot. And I'm not defending my boy, I'm defending logic and intelligence.
