Mike Brown finished the regular season as the all-time winningest coach in Cavaliers franchise history and won 61 games this past season which was tops in the league. Still, the fact that the LeBron James powered Cavs fell short once again was too much of a giant Matzah ball for Cleveland owner Dan Gilbert to ignore and Mike Brown is now “free to run for President“.
9 outta 10 times when the head coach gets canned, his assistants usually get ousted too, but since LeBron James likes assistants Chris Jent, Melvin Hunt and Mike Malone so much. They’ll be staying put if King James stays put.
However Jent who also serves as James’ personal shooting coach since 2006, is pretty much guaranteed to end up wherever LeBron ends up this summer. Now that’s some great job security.
