6 million includes ChrysalisVentures' 1 million option

Mike Brown Is it just me or has the once-coveted Coach of the Year award been tainted all of a sudden, in similar fashion to the Heisman and the Madden cover Avery Johnson gets Coach of the Year and then gets his walking papers. Mike Brown hasn’t received his, and I’m not saying that he should He does needs to make smarter decisions though. This situation happened in one of the ECF games last year, and Delonte West shot a three from the corner and missed, giving the Magic the win Better decisions have to be made That’s all I’m saying 4. Other Teams The Cavaliers are not a team to forget about completely I wouldn’t say that at all It’s not like they’re the Knicks. They’re just not a championship team yet, at least not this year.

Sure, they got Shaq, which gave them what they really needed, but look at what other teams did. The Lakers got Ron Artest, who gave them hell in last year’s semifinals. The Celtics got Rasheed Wallace, who can definitely be an asset if he keeps himself in check The Celtics already have enough attitude. The Magic also got Vince Carter, who makes a deep Orlando team even deeper if he can stay healthy. These transactions are all better than Cleveland’s transactions, and if their home opener loss is any indication, other teams, especially Boston, who is currently steamrolling at 4-0, are just flat out hungrier than the Cavaliers. Therefore, after ruining the Finals that everyone anticipated, the Cavaliers have a lot to do this year to get to where they wanted to be last year. They can make it, but they have to do a lot more than what they’ve done so far in their 1-2 start It can’t just be the LeBron show One of the other teammates has to show up Hey, it took MJ seven years to get his first Maybe history is on his side after all Who knows.
