ESPN hires ex-Cavs coach Mike Brown
(December 27, 2010) Former Cleveland Cavaliers coach Mike Brown has been hired by ESPN as an analyst.
Brown, who was fired in June after the Cavs lost to Boston in the Eastern Conference semifinals, will begin his TV stint on Christmas Day for the New York-Chicago telecast on ESPN 3D, the network said Thursday. Brown will also contribute as an ESPN studio analyst throughout the season. Brown was the most successful coach in Cavs history. He went 314-177 in five seasons and was the league's coach of the year in 2009, but Cleveland's failure to win a title despite having the league's best record and LeBron James the past two seasons led to Brown's dismissal. Brown would like to return to coaching one day. He helped coach one of his son's football teams this fall and has been enjoying more time with his family since being fired. Read more at
