At least your getting his old coach back. How can Mike Brown go back?

Brown wasn't a bad coach with Cleveland. He struggled to handle LeBron's ego, but for the most part he was unfairly fired. The Cavs won ~65 regular season games during Brown's last two years with the team. He was fired because LeBron choked in the playoffs (2-1 series lead vs. Boston blown because LeBron has three of the worst games of his career... I still think he just quit). Of course when the offseason rolled along LeBron didn't have the decency to inform the Cavs of his opinions and thus left them grasping at straws to figure out what he wanted, so Dan Gilbert canned Brown because he thought it would be what LeBron wanted. Apparently LeBron didn't want it enough.

Mike Brown was just more collateral damage of "The Decision." He's a good coach (I'm giving him a pass on the Lakers debacle, because Kobe is uncoachable by people not named Phil Jackson and that team is just a cast of self-absorbed *******s).

GO Bulls!

I have to say winning a playoff series without D-Rose (and Joakim Noah on 1 leg) would be a great accomplishment; enough for me to call the year a success regardless what happens in round 2. Coach Tom Thibodeau is a rare commodity, a coach in a star play driven league that actually makes an impact. Got him and Greg Popovich as the two best coaches in basketball in no particular order.

Not calling the round over though by any means. Bulls offense stinks at times and there not going to be able to hold a team under 80 points every game.
