Mike Brown is a better basketball coach than you are

He has the award to prove it.

Brown was named NBA Coach of the Year today after leading the Cavs to the best regular season in franchise history and the No. 1 overall seed in the playoffs. His defense-first philosophy has turned Cleveland into one of the NBA's top defensive teams every year. He's also wisely deferred to his assistants when it comes to running the offense. Oh, and that LeBron fellow chipped in a little bit, too.

LeBron will probably get his first MVP award in a few weeks, and he's a dark horse for Defensive Player of the Year, too. It all means jack shit without the Larry O'Brien Trophy, but it's a great time to be a Cavs fan nonetheless.

Smile for the cameras, coach. You earned it.


Now I'm gonna go eat some pot cookies.
