NBA News: Cleveland Cavaliers Fire Coach Mike Brown

And the full force attempt to keep LeBron James is on.

The move came hours before a deadline that would have paid Brown $4.5 million next season whether he was the coach or not.

Brown coached the Cavs for 5 year and led them to a 272-138 record, but failed to win a championship. His .663 winning percentange is the highest for any Cavs coach.

The move was rumored to happen ever since the Cavs were ousted from the playoffs by the Boston Celtics. Cleveland fans hope the organization allows James a voice in who the next coach is in order to keep James, who is a free agent as you may have heard.
