WaitingForNextYear:
"That isn't to say the Cavaliers have the best roster in the league right now. They are a deep team, but they don't have the best second option. Derrick Rose is better than Mo Williams. Dirk Nowitzki is a better big man than anyone on the Cavs' roster. There are handfuls of rosters that could be compared favorably to the current supporting cast in Cleveland. That isn't the point. To be more exact, that isn't the whole point. LeBron's choice isn't about making a decision around a single year. LeBron needs to make a decision that will benefit him for the next three years and probably longer." » Read more

Cavs HQ:
"While I believe it was time for Mike Brown to go, Danny Ferry deserves some of the blame for Brown's shortcomings this season. He gave too many players to a coach who struggles with rotations, and he gave a group of players who don't defend very well - namely Shaquille O'Neal, Mo Williams and Antawn Jamison - to a coach who specializes on defense. Just like a coach has to put his players in a position to succeed, the GM has to put his coach in a position to succeed. While Ferry added talent on paper, he did not always take his head coach into account when adding that talent." » Read more

Stepien Rules:
"Whatever the case, its over - Mike Brown's out - and let the 'who's going to coach now?' questions fly. ... If the Cavs should end up not resigning LeBron James, it may be difficult / impossible to land a head coach that will do a better job next season than Mike Brown would have done had he been retained." » Read more

Cleveland Reboot:
"Robiskie is this year's Jerome Harrison in some respects. While I'm not suggesting that Robiskie is going to channel Harrison's late-season surge of 2009; I will predict the following: If Robiskie can't break through this season – considering the lack of talent at his position – he never will. Much like Harrison in 2009 playing behind a broken Jamal Lewis, Robiskie is staring down the ultimate opportunity to get some precious playing time in 2010. Other than Mohammed Massaquoi ... and Mohammed Massaquoi, the Browns feature virtually nothing at wideout. If Robiskie again cannot crack the lineup, then it was truly never meant to be." » Read more
