No. Mike Brown is now the best coach in Cleveland (I know how happy that must make you!!). Although to give the Browns credit, it is tough to play defense when a team's 4th string running back goes down and you know exactly what they are going to do each and every play. That is the recipe for allowing 600 yards. The Browns are the complete package each and every week. When they play defense, we can count on zero offense, when the offense doesn't blow, we can count on 600 yards or Joe Flacco picking us apart. It's pure poetry how diverse they truly are.

Mike Brown and Romeo should be equipment managers not head coaches. We have the two worst coaches in each respective sport. Once again Romeo humiliated himself and the city of Cleveland

Although I jest about the skills of Mike Brown...he is far, far from the worst coach in the NBA. Not even close to it.

I agree, when you have 14 pts leads and blow both of them, EVEN with a bad defense, your job isn't safe and shouldn't be.

I also think that he had a leash on Quinn, they didn't stretch that defense at all.

If I was a football coach and I had a QB with ANY arm at all, within the first 10 plays I would be tossing one 40 yards down the field to get that defense uncomfortable, doesn't matter if it is completed or not, just do it to put it in the back of their head.

I think they'll give Romeo one more year. :zz:

The Bid 11-07-2008 09:21 AM

If he gets another year Im selling my seat license

The Cavs tickets we have Im about to give up as well. If they are 500 through the first 40 games Im giving the rest of the season away

As far as those guys not being the worst in their respective field, you tell me whos worse? Whos worse than Mike Brown.

Dude, don't worry, Chicago went through the same thing with Doug Collins when we had Jordan and looked how that turned out :)

Coach Pants 11-07-2008 09:23 AM

I know they're terrible. BUT the sports media is putting heat on college and pro teams to hire and keep black head coaches.

The Bid 11-07-2008 09:25 AM

You are right coach, I dont think Cleveland can fire both black coaches in the same year. Jesse Jackson would be crying and Sharpton would be raising hell. Cleveland is one of the dumb cities that actually bought into the media hype, you see what thats gotten them. A hamsandwich.

Im not against either guy accepting a position in the organization, equipment manager, personal assistants, whatever. They just arent head coaches, neither guy

Ive always thought Doug Collins was a good basketball mind

A VERY good mind, but horrible coach

The Bid 11-07-2008 09:28 AM

I dont dispute that, he would have been good upper managment.

If they are not doing the job, they should be fired. It doesn't matter what color they are. I am not familiar with Mike Brown, but after watching the Browns a couple of times this year, Romeo should definitley be getting a pink slip in the near future. But to keep a guy because you are worried about Rev Al. coming to town is ludicrious.

Not to mention that Ohio went to Obama anyway. But since when is sports politically correct? Theses teams interview some black candidates because they have to. That's a shame in itself, telling teams that they have to interview someone based on there color, not just their credentials.

I never said anything about Romeo...I don't think he's a good coach.

Cheeks, Mitchell, Del Negro, O'Brien, Skiles, Woodson, Van Gundy, Jordan, Karl, Wittman, Cerlesimo, McMillan, Dunleavy, Porter, Theus, Adelman, Iavaroni.

Perhaps more are worse. Perhaps less are worse. Comparing coaches is tough and many have coached about 7 games so far. To unequivically state Mike Brown is the worst NBA coach doesn't add up.

Ok I guess. Morty and Bid are on opposite sides on this issue from what I can tell. The Cavs success since Brown took over is high and since LeBron came is high. But Morty thinks LeBron is a huge detriment. Bid thinks Brown is the worst coach in NBA history. I'd love to see Bid discuss the x's and o's on why Marc Iavaroni and Vinny del Negro are without question far superior coaches than Mike Brown. That should be entertaining.
