Re-Sign or Release: Mike Brown

With the NBA season in the rear view mirror, we now turn to a summer full of front office decision-making. As fans, we all have our feelings on what needs to be done to improve our Cavaliers team. Rock has laid the figurative cards on the table, but this is where we turn to you -- the readers of WFNY.

The premise is simple. Assume all players are restricted free agents and that they'll likely need at least a small raise from last year's salary. Do you re-sign? Or do you release? Of course, we'll leave LeBron James out of this scenario. And also, a little supporting argument always helps. Do Enjoy.

**

It's getting to the point where you all are wielding more axes than the banking industry. D-West and Boobie got invites back to participate next season. The team then followed suit. But since then, we have been releasing players left and right.

While we could attempt to delve into Ben Wallace, I have a feeling I know the result. Zydrunas Ilgauskas would be a solid conversation, but we'll save that for later. For now, let's change things up a bit and discuss the man behind the curtain: Mike Brown.

Strengths: Defense.

Weaknesses:Offense, occasional rotation management, play-calling.

And while it appears that there are more cons than pros above, that sole strength has won Mike Brown an awful lot of games. You could say that it has been LeBron James that has provided the bulk of said wins, but like it or not, they are a part of Coach Mike's record.

Brown has continually shot down the notion of bringing in an offensive mind to help with the whole scoring aspect of things. And truthfully, I would prefer to just have another player that can take care of that portion of the game and we would not have to have this conversation as often. However, given the handcuffs that are a part of Danny Ferry's recent wardrobe, the change may have to be made within.

So what say ye, Cavs fans? Can Brown be trusted to make the adjustments needed? Many of you weren't too thrilled upon the Game 7 loss to the Celtics. Has the overall opinion changed?
