How about it folks. If we get Kyrie back in soon, can we win out?

Win out? Not likely.

It will be interesting to see what this team looks like with some motivation though.

Hats off to Delly, Jack, and Dion for that game tonight.

Oh and also major props to the bonehead Pistons.

You guys are lucky we have a dumb coach. We won't lose to you guys like that again. Good game though

Well the consensus here in Cleveland is that we have the best coach since Phil Jackson. :lol:

All kidding aside, we might actually keep Brown for another year.

Can you believe that, I know right? Why is Brown even here unless Gilbert is so fixated that he is the way to get Ladouchebag back. I can't figure it. Brown has single handedly lost us at least 4 games this season with no plays called on inbound passes etc. He has no business being a coach really. :crazy:

Last night we won because of the Pistons stupid play not what we did. We should have lost by 10.

The team seems to be buying in. There are valid criticisms of Brown, but those in bounds are pretty much a matter of execution and fundamentals.

I really dont get the criticism of Mike Brown...

He gets no credit when the team has a huge come from behind win, but yet if the team doesnt run the play he gives them then it's on him?

Im betting he's back next year. Yes, he's our best bet to luring LeBron back, but he's also a hell of a coach. He has dealt with a ton of garbage this year that was forced on him, and has made some major improvements to a team that played zero defense for the last several seasons. I've said this before, but come on fellas, we all know how this goes. We've been through this in the past and should know that it takes more than one season for Brown's system to really get into place. Im expecting it to really click come mid next season... unless Gilbert does get impatient again and forces more moves.

I've been on record as saying that they have to let Brown coach out the year and then make an evaluation based on the entire body of work. I'm leaning towards keeping him.
