ESPN - CLEVELAND -- The Cleveland Cavaliers have officially rehired Mike Brown as their coach.
Brown, who led the Cavs to five consecutive playoff appearances before he was fired in 2010, is returning to the team for a second time. Brown will replace Byron Scott, the man who replaced him three years ago but was fired last week following Cleveland's third straight losing season.
How desperate are you for work when your employer who basically spat in your face three years ago wants you to come back and you take the job? Dan Gilbert basically fired Brown to try and appease LeBron and get him to stay in Cleveland. Like I know that LeBron is basically the greatest basketball player on Earth right now but as a coach, if my owner is putting a player above me, THE COACH, the guy who is supposed to run the shit, I'm fucking pissed and not coming back. I'm not letting somebody tell me a player is above me and then coming back after that. No way. There is some young talent though in Cleveland and you never know LeBron could be back in a few years to play with Irving and D Waiters. How the fuck would that dynamic work? Like would LeBron be like "Sorry bro I got you fired but it's cool now cuz I can play with Kyrie and he balls hard." Only time will tell.
