I'm going to consider it.

That ain't so hard...is it?











I'm getting confused.










I'm not talking about the Cleve./Det. series and I hope you aren't.

What has he done in the forth? By the forth the best player in the NBA, and his supporting cast have their backs up against the wall for what he failed to do in the third. The players adjust themselves, that guys not doing anything productive on the bench. He calls bad Timeouts, he doesnt set solid plays on last possessions, he makes terrible substitutions, hes just a bad coach.

Yes.





It's much the same reason you belch out your NBA coaching analysis.







I've tried to hope you lay something between the lines.












But it's just not there.













Not between nor in.











But keep hacking away.












You'll get there.















Given the modern advances in medical technology and the fact you are not over 3 years of age..........

































....why you should have enough time.

Good.











And gooder.












Give me a little time here to come up with an agreeable condition.














This negotiating stuff is great.

No, you're wrong. It is inconsistent to put all the blame on him for the bad things and all the credit to the players for the good things. It is wrong and poor debating strategy...you can't win doing that. You are just making things worse. I could just as easily say...what on earth is the best player in the NBA doing it ruining Brown's tremendous coaching in the 1st half by going 0 for 6 in the 3rd quarter?? That argument is the same as yours and just as ridiculous. How on earth can you say it's all the players in the 4th but all Brown in the 3rd?? There is simply no comibination of the two at any point??

This is the same guy that credited James and soley James for the Cleveland Cavs turn around from that 15-67 season.

You obviously dont watch much basketball.

When Eric Snow is in to close out a game and ends up taking two crucial freethrows, its bad coaching

When you have a team backed up and dont close them out, its poor coaching

When you consistantly substitute the wrong players, while leaving bad sets on the floor its poor coaching.

When you start a guy who can barely walk, and he leads out the second half shooting three drawn up bricks, its bad coaching

When you dont Tell Lebron to attack the basket when they are in penalty, its poor coaching.

When you lose two on the road in which you outplayed the other team both games, its poor coaching.

The guy is a bad coach, just terrible. The Cavs have won both games because of the raw talent, they have been close games because of poor coaching.

The condition is I don't want to sit there and wait day after day to get approved.


I know Arty does that to just to get back at me. If I have to wait more than one hour.....then that's it.







That would be my condition and a mighty fair one I would think.

Yeah, but Brown wasn't there that season!! And again, we have discussed this. That is not what I said or meant by that, and you know it.

When you tell Gibson to penetrate and get to the line it's tremendous coaching...

When you tell Gooden to make his wide open shots and draw up plays that continually give him wide open shots it's tremendous coaching...

When you come from behind in the 4th two games in a row against a 5 time consecutive conference finalist it is tremendous coaching...

When you put James on billups in the 4th quater and he is stifled that is tremendous coaching...

when donyell Marshall scores 7 points in the 3rd quarter when the team can't shoot, and keeps you in the game, that is a tremendous substitution and tremendous coaching...

When the plays you call get you two wide open shots to win games on the raod against a 5 time consecutive conference finalist that is tremendous coaching...

Yeah...this is really hard Bid isn't it???

SportyFans...you decide if he said it or not:

They have won 3 playoff series in the last 2 years after having not won one since 1993. They have back to back 50 win seasons for only the second time in close to 40 years in existence.

HE hit not one, but two game winning shots in the playoffs last year. At age 22, LeBron has 15 playoff wins...I think at that age, Bird and Jordan had a total of zero combined.

Why bother with facts when making things up is so much better!!!

I would say he did say it.





What about you?

I still don't see in that post mr mortimer (or ms...don't know your gender) where I said James was "solely" responsible. I didn't mention coaching or coaches or anything. I simply said in two years James had them over .500 as a general statement responding to a post that said he was overrated. YOu're gonna have to employ better spacing and more of it next time!!!

Show me where I am wrong?? Refute my comments. YOu made a bunch of spurious statements showing Brown was a bad coach. I made a bunch of spurious comments showing Brown was a tremendous coach. You can't refute them. Your only response is to call me a clown. I have followed cleveland sports for 35 years. Perhaps you have as well. Did you watch all the Cavs '76 playoff games? Were you at the Sipe interception game like I was...were you at the Drive game like I was??

Your comments on Brown are beyond ridiculous.
