    A bit from the Cavs Insider on Cleveland.com.

    Calling on pop:

    Cavs coach Mike Brown said he's been talking to close friend and mentor Gregg Popovich over the past several days in working on game plans. The San Antonio Spurs coach and Brown talk often during the season, but this is the first time the Spurs haven't been alive in the playoffs and the Cavs have, enabling Brown to seek more advice.

    "Pop's always been a great sounding board for me," Brown said.

    As for people calling Brown, that's quite different. Brown said over the past few days he's had plenty of people come up to him or call him with ideas of how to help with the Cavs' issues with the Magic -- especially on defense and in guarding the 3-point shot.

    "I've had a lot of suggestions on how to stop the 3 from my son to my best friend to you name it," Brown said.

    Anyone else notice that twice this series in crunch time, Brown, the coach of the year, has had one of his assistants draw up the play?

    Hmm I wonder if this would help Lebron come over to San Antonio when he is a free agent?

    Coach Brown is a fraud, if Lebron wins this series it'll be in spite of his teammates AND his coach.

    Even TIMMY DIDN"T HAVE TO PUT UP WITH THIS Crap.
    He had both Pop and DRob when he entered.

    Lebron's equivalents of DRob has been Varajeo and Big Z.
    The only thing Coach Brown has been good at is stressing team schemes and defense. He's learned well from Spurs ball at installing "boring basketball" however I've yet to see him prove in-game to series adjustments.


    I hope Pop's pupil will prove me wrong in the next ECF games, in helping Lebron to make it to the Finals as a "Good" coach at least...I want him to be successful since he's an extension of Pop.

    Who knows, maybe Coach Brown will eventually take the mantle away from the Zen Master, when it's all said and done by riding on his own "MJ's" coattails

    I wish PJ were still here to do that for Pop when he can't run anything or slap him out of it.

    @ people thinking PJ ran the offense.

    As for Mike Brown, sometimes he's not even in the huddle while the assistants are instructing the players. He seems really lost in this series. But I don't think it's unusual for coaches to call on each other during the playoffs. Pop called on Larry Brown in the past too.

    No, but PJ gave Pop some ''guidance'' when Pop would temporarily malfunction during games.

    Totally disagree.Shows he is not an arrogant ass thinking he knows it all. Meeting of minds , sharing of ideas , sorting things out, cannot harm in any situation coaching or otherwise..

    I believe that is his coach in charge of offense.
