“All rumors are completely false. Mike Brown will be the Cavaliers head coach next season,” a team source told Chris Broussard of ESPN The Magazine. The Cavs front office are trying to do a little damage control after rumors started  that they might be looking to replace Mike Brown. A couple of sources yesterday said that the Cavs front office was at odds with each other over the decision to keep their head coach. I am not sure how any owner could get away with firing the NBA coach of the year, but I am sure Brown would find a [...]

Say what? Frank Isola plants the idea that Pat Riley could possibly be the answer to keeping LeBron in Cleveland. He entertains the idea that Dan Gilbert could possibly replace the 2008-09 NBA coach of the year with one that went out as a 15 win head coach. How does Brown’s job status impact the Knicks? If Cavs owner Dan Gilbert were to decide to make a big, bold coaching move, that would certainly enhance the club’s chances of re-signing LeBron James. And this is where things could get interesting. Gilbert’s first call could be to Pat Riley, who knows [...]

One source said there’s no way agent Arn Tellem will allow Cavs forward/center Ben Wallace to walk away from $14 million. News Herald Big Ben is either going to be traded to someone looking to clear cap space for next summer or the Cavs will buyout his contract. I think this is a smart move by Tellem to position his client if the Cavs or another team decide to buyout his contract. If I was Big Ben I wouldn’t walk away from $14 million. I would at least get half. Like Eddie said, “If you had five dollars and had [...]

Randy Smith was pronounced dead from a massive heart attack on June 4th after an early morning workout. Randy was the Cavs team captain for the two years (1979-80) he spent with the team. He was most famous for setting the consecutive games streak with 906. He was also the 1979 MVP of the All-Star Game. Jack Ramsey believed he was  the best athlete he ever coached. “He had stamina, great speed and developed into a very good player,” Ramsay said Friday from the NBA finals in Los Angeles. “And was so fun to be around. There was not a [...]

Funny, amusing, but also depressing. You have been warned:

I am not a huge horse racing fan, but my great aunt always wanted us to watch the races with her. So I usually still catch all of the big three and I am hoping today that Calvin Borel wins the triple crown. He will be the first rider ever to win the triple crown on different horses.
