Hey Bid...
 

I really hope you aren't going to blame poor coaching on the stellar 2 for 9 free throw performance in the 4th quarter!! This'll be a tough one to swallow if they end up losing it in OT.

I agree that Brown shouldn't have called that one. But the timeout that Gibson had to call on the out of bounds play was just as critical.

LeBron is playing his ass off.

Lebron is like a fuc kin mongoose.

Deep down I hope this doesn't end up like last year when they also won games 3,4,and 5 against the Pistons and all it got them was well...2 more losses!! (I still think it's the sign of a great coach to overcome a 2 for 9 free throw line performance in the 4th and still win!!) mortimer may just be a witness now I believe! So LeBron can actually play??

I was being a bit facetious here. It wasn't great is my take on it. I never claimed Brown was a perfect human being or coach. He makes many mistakes every game. My argument with Bid is that he does some nice things as a coach as well and he refuses to acknowledge anything he does.

I thought some of the offensive and defensive switches he made were good. Resting LeBron at the start of the fourth was a good move too. He also rested him in the second quarter when Detroit threatened to go on a run and open it up a little. After playing 48 minutes last game, Brown rested him just enough to have him able to finish the way he did. Even when LeBron went up to him in the fourth and asked to go in, Brown resisted. And again, the timeout Gibson took was just as important as the one Brown took.

When Doug Collins is calling your mistakes before you make them you are doing something wrong

Nobody but Lebron could overcome Browns moronic substitutions, timeout calls, and lack of game presence.

Like I said before, If Flip Saunders werent the second worst coach in the league the cavs would be in trouble. The adjustments Flip made, or lack there of trump the bogus timeouts and subbing by Brown.

I will never be a fucl<in' witness!


You can be fer DEM SHOO about that.


He played a great game...no question.....but it's not over.







And it it wasn't for someone not chosen......it would be right next to over.

I actually thought that Doug Collins was a good coach when he was back with the Bulls. He took them to the level they needed to get to in order to win a championship. Phil Jackson gets all the credit but I think Collins deserves more. Every team that becomes a winner has to go through a process. For the Bulls, these were their learning years. But in each of his seasons, he took them further than the year before, losing in the first round his first season, the semis his second and in the conference finals his third. Each time, they lost to the team that went on to represent the East in the championship. It was Boston in 1987 and Detroit in the next two years. Those were good teams that were beating them. It's the same thing Detroit had to do before they were ready to win championships. It's the same thing that Shaq Lakers had to do before they were ready to win. They all made yearly steps until they were ready. Then Fortunate Phil rides in and gets all the glory. I hate that guy.
