He already has according to your pronouncements. Why would you have to wait?? He has already screwed up the season. He is an equipment manager who coached an NBA team to a conference championship without an NBA point guard. Is it simply a coincidence that the team can play offense now that he has been given a NBA point guard to work with??

With a legitimate NBA coach rather than an equipment manager the Cavs would have gone 246-0 the last 3 years with 3 titles.

Mike Brown is the coach. The season is already screwed up. Why on earth are you even commenting on it?? We have seen your comments on it. Why are you still pronouncing it?? MIke Brown HAS screwed things up for 3 years now. You have no need to wait or are you still trying to convince yourself of that fact? I'm sure you can find about 99,000 mistakes Brown has made in 10 games so far. It is blatantly obvious...isn't it?? What are you waiting for?? It's already been done.

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!!!

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.

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.

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

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.
