Will Mike Brown be fired?
Will that be enough to make Lebron bolt outta town?
Note: I know some of you will just say.....It won't happen, Cavs cannot lose to them. I am aiming more for what kind of shit storm will come down if it does....
For the record, I think the Cavs win in 6 games.

The next three series if they continue to win are going to be great match ups. If Leboob is not 100% it could spell the end of the run, however the rest of the team is playing very well, so they could pick him uf in needed.
Mike should be gone if they don't win. This is the best team ever assembled in Cleveland Cavs history. The weapons they have are endless, and if Brown can't get a championship with this group, then he's toast.

Brown should be fired before they leave the floor if they are eliminated in this series.

He will be fired if they lose but it will take a huge meltdown the way everyone is playing, not just LeBron this time.
The best thing Cleveland has done this year was to move Mo Williams into the 3rd to even 4th scoring option right now. Jamison is dropping 19 a game and shooting 49-50% in the playoffs.
Boston has no one to stop LeBron and Cleveland is too deep and athletic for the Celtics.

I just hope it doesn't get chippy and one of our key players gets injured. I could see the Celtics stooping to that level out of desperation.

What the Celts do have is plenty of experince. Aged...yes, but experienced none the less. I look for this series to go 6 or 7 games. Watch for fireworks with Big Baby and Shaqdaddy.

I think Brown will be gone if it would happen, but I think Lebron stays regardless.

He would be fired, unless they lost because of injuries.

^^^No doubt.
If they don't get it done this year, it will never happen for a Cleveland franchise.

If Mike Brown doesn't get this team to the Finals he should be fired. Regardless of LeBron's decision. There is no excuse for this team not to make the Finals

If LeBron is healthy, and they lose, MB should be fired. But if Lebron isn't healthy, and they lose, then you really can't blame the coach for too much, and he should stay.
To answer the other question, I think Lebron stays either way. No team is closer to winning an NBA championship than us. He would have to go to LA Lakers, or Orlando, to have as good of a supporting cast as the Cavs.

I think Brown gets fired if they don't make it and I think the punishment would fit the crime. This is a great team. No excuse for them to not be in the Finals.
Somewhere Pat Riley has his fingers crossed. This is his forte. Taking over a loaded team with a bumbling head coach that can't get them to the next level.

Brown is gone for sure, I think Bron would be gone too. I can hear it now "I love Cleveland but I need to do what's best for me and my family, and that's to move on to a team that can contend for multiple championships"

If the Cavs lose to the Celtics the NBA would have been a great season.

Hard to blame Brown if Lebron isn't 100% and they lose because he is everything for the Cavs to win a title. I wouldn't even blame it all on him last year because Mo Williams and West went in the toilet against Orlando after playing well in the first 2 series.
But to answer the question, assuming Lebron is healthy, he is probably gone if they don't win the East, regardless if they lose to the Celtics or the winner of Magic/Hawks/Bucks.
