We will revisit this post in 30 days. When the Cavs are just above 500

What the..... how did DaStalker9698 miss my post on Page 4??????????? lol

I'm jumping the gun a bit on this, but 20 days have now passed and my guess is when this post was made by you, you failed to look at the Cavs schedule in those next 30 days. Obviously that is all that is going on here as an 18-3 record with an equipment manager as coach has nothing to do with anything. It is indeed a massive failure by Mike Brown to not be 21-0 at this point of the season. Incredibly, Cav managment with superior coaches to Mike Brown in Randy Wittman, Sam Mitchell, Eddie Jordan, PJ Carlesimo all having been fired recently have failed to hire any of them yet..and continue to persist with the equipment manager at the helm. Simply stupendous. Nonetheless after two losses to Philly, and losses to Minnesota and Atlanta, they'll still stand at 18-7 after those 30 days. They won't be "just above".

(call me crazy, but I don't care who else is on the team, any coach that gets to an NBA finals with a starting backcourt of Larry Hughes and Sasha Pavlovic may just be getting close to shhhhhh...capital G...capital R capital E...capital A...capital T as a head coach in the Association. )

Smoke on that one awhile!!! :D :D :D

The 2007 and 2008 seasons of the Cavs are two of the best back to back coaching jobs in my entire lifetime by a coach in the city of Cleveland. I'll reserve judgement on the 2009 season til it's completed but I think they'll at least get to .500 for the season before it's over.

Cava are smokin hot. Mo Williams makes the team complete. Very deep team with role players that are playing their roles.

Yes, with an NBA point guard at last on the team (Eric Snow notwithstanding!), Mike Brown suddenly found offense. May still not be as good as Boston and have to see how injuries play out the rest of the way. I have hope in this Cleveland team. Being it Cleveland however, it seems to be setting up perfectly for a major LeBeon knee injury in the next two months.

30 days later and just officially revisiting said post. You were off just a hair on this one!!

Browns OLB Kamerion Wimbley has only five QB pressures this season.
The Browns claim Wimbley has improved against the run, but their rush defense still ranks 28th in the NFL. Wimbley officially has four sacks, but one was a gimme in Week 15 against the Eagles. He had 11 sacks to go with 16 hurries as a rookie, and five sacks on 20 pressures in his second season.

Maybe a kick in the a$$ will get this guy going back to his rookie style.

If they can complete the trade they're working on, they're right with Boston the title, maybe even ahead of them..... trying to get Shawn Marion for Varejao and a couple of the other role players.

Romeo must die

Its always fun to disagree on bball.
Imo you nailed this one though.
With Mo and West on the floor they
move the ball very well.

And the team is much deeper.
Lebron is almost being forced to save his legs.
This is Cleveland's chance to actually
win something. This team can beat the
Celtics and Lakers. Of course they could
also lose to the Hawks.

hawks are a scary team. No one wants to see them in the playoffs. cavs have a complete team and lots of depth though LBJ, Williams and Igor are indispensible

please dont jinx them. I dont want to speak out against Mike Brown, give me another 30 days to dream of a championship.

Morty and I have suffered decades with bad sports teams, this is our chance. MORTY!

You got 5 months ahead. They are really good and james is the best player in the game regardless of what Morty says. if doc Rivers can win a championship than brown surely can.

I think you could be right Cannon, the Cavs may be the team this year. They would be undefeated without Mike Brown

:) :)

Looks like Lerner is meeting with Cowher this week. Im sure Cowher will want final say on personnel decisions as well which isnt a bad thing as long as you can find a decent GM without a big ego.

Cowher could step into a great situation here. This team has the players to win games right away.

Morty????

If they get Cowher, he'll be coach/GM.... which I hope happens.

Cowher not interested...or posturing?

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3797518

interesting... since they're meeting to talk about it this afternoon (what I heard while in OH yesterday morning before I drove back). Cowher's only interested if coach AND gm (he played for Paul Brown in Cle).

If they don't get Cowher, then from what I've heard is that they'll hire another GM and get Schotenheimer back as coach (which I'd only approve of if he burns his prevent defense... drove me nuts watching him in his 1st go around in Cle).

haven't read anything as yet....could cowher possibly be interested in the jets? will mangini end up going to a head coaching opening, or will he be an asst somewhere?

I don't think so, becuase I think he wants to be a GM too. Tannenbaum isn't going anywhere (yet), it seems that he did a good job this year. Despite the final result he made some improvments to the roster.
It's going to be interesting to see the candidates, not to mention if the ax falls on other guys such as Del Rio in Jacksonville.

I also don't see Mangini getting another head coaching job in the NFL in the near future.

Bad remembering names but heard on Cleveland radio looking at bringing in GM from NE and he's got a college coach he's close to that would come in. Cowher is not going anywhere from what I hear in the Carolina's

Yeah, espn just said that Cowher said he was not interested in the Browns job. I guess there is such a thing as loyalty.

"mangenius" is now "manjobless". Things change quickly in new york.

mangini has an interview with the browns.
