The Cleveland Cavaliers have fired 40-year old head coach Mike Brown. Brown led the Cavs to a 61-21 (74.4%) record this season during the regular season but he was 6-5 (54.5%) in the playoffs and he clearly got outcoached by Doc Rivers of the Celtics. In his five years with the Cavs, Brown compiled a 272-138 (66.3%) record during the regular season and he was 42-29 (59.2%) in the post season. Brown was the NBA Coach of the Year in 2008 and he got the Cavs to the NBA Finals in 2006-07 when they were swept by the Spurs. Despite Brown being a solid coach during the regular season he got fired for being repeatedly outcoached in the playoffs. He blew his big shot as the next gig he gets will be with a team that is rebuilding from the bottom up. The Cavaliers will likely be looking for a high profile coach with some rings on his fingers.
