    maybe, if I were the owner it would depend on a combination of things, one of which would be how do the players respond to what he is trying to teach them, two where are we in our team plan, three do I think that he can make them team better.
    Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are .

    He's not a very good coach, imo. That team is a lot better then where they sit right now. Rose, Hinrich, and Noah are fantastic players and Noah has really come into his own this season.

    The GM should also be fired for trading Tyrus Thomas and Tim Salmons to teams where they made gigantic impacts and may help shape the playoffs. But hey, he's playing to sign a max contract this off-season either D-Wade or Bosh.

    The Bulls talent level is equal to the Heats imo. They should at least be fighting for the 5 seed, not fighting to make the playoffs.

    Of course, I also see Mike Brown in Cleveland as a bad coach so obviously coaching doesn't hurt teams that much if it's bad.

    Not saying that it was a good thing, or that it should be encouraged, just that it wasn't that serious of an incident (going by what I read).

    Brown can try to ruin LeBron's chances of winning a title though.

    I think I could draw up better plays then Mike Brown. Awful final 2 minutes coach. Just awful. He drew up a play where ANDERSON VARAJAO was the second option for the final shot. ANDERSON VARAJAO.

    Hell, the GM should be fired for signing a retired baseball player in the first place.

    Also, you had a typo.
