What has Mike Brown done to Kyrie?

[THE MACHINE]

He's proven that riding LeBron's coattails makes any coach look better than they should. :smugobama:

Mike is not proven, he only proved he could make it to the playoffs when he had a transcendent talent.

I don't think you guys are giving him enough credit. Winning 61 and 66 games in Cleveland was no small feat irregardless of who was on the team. They made the finals with:

I agree he isnt an offensive mastermind, but he can coach. He coached the lakers to the second round (41-25) without Dwight and got canned 5 games into the next season. Let that man cook

Edit: that graphic of that roster came out looking like trash and NO I ain't fixing it

He had LeBron James
He had Kobe Bryant

Two top ten players....all-time.

Pop had Timmy

 

[Malta]

Pop had Timmy

Yeah, and he's won with him, go check the rosters for the 99 and 03 title teams

 

[Street Knowledge]

idk, i never thought kyrie would have been great, but he was extremely polished offensively to significantly but not a great passer and a liability on defense

You guys need to Stop overvaluing PG defense. Kyrie is a beast on offense and that's what matters at that position

 

[Newzz]

Mike Brown is a horrible coach.

I agree he isnt an offensive mastermind, but he can coach. He coached the lakers to the second round (41-25) without Dwight and got canned 5 games into the next season. Let that man cook

You arent giving the whole scenario and trying to make Brown look better than he really was.

First off, he coached us to a WORSE record in our first season without Phil Jackson (Phil led us to a 57-25 .695 record in 82 games.....Potato Head lead us to a 41-25 .621 record in 66 games.) and then followed that up by losing EVERY SINGLE PRESEASON GAME and losing 4 of the first 5 games of the 2013 season


He's a garbage coach who knows nothing about the offensive side of the ball


Uncle Bernie was a better HC of the Lakers than him and Dantoni

 

[Street Knowledge]

Yeah, and he's won with him, go check the rosters for the 99 and 03 title teams

But those teams won on defense.

 

[Newzz]

But those teams won on defense.

So did those 2007 Cavaliers

 

[CurrencyChase]

i'll give him until all-star break.

I don't think you understand how good lebron was when he was on his I gotta do everything mode

 

[Newzz]

I don't think you understand how good lebron was when he was on his I gotta do everything mode

You thought Wade was still better though

 

[Da_Eggman]

You thought Wade was still better though

Nah I always knew Bron was better since day one I just didn't root for him

 

[bl2k8]

Ain't he past his five game limit

 

[dunkman6]

somebody gotta crop this shyt and make it a official smiley

 

[Buckeye Fever]

We want 1 of these 3 players(in order):

1. Randle
2. Parker
3. Wiggins


If we cant a top 3 pick, I want Laquinton Ross. For one, he's a Buckeye. Secondly, he can score, and thirdly, he's from Mississippi. That should help in keeping him, instead of him bolting
