Default 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.

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.
