There’s various reports going around about the future of Mike Brown, some saying that he’s gone, others (including owner Dan Gilbert), saying he’s still here. SI.com broke the story, stating two sources have told them that Brown has already been dismissed.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have fired head coach Mike Brown, two league sources told SI.com. Brown, who won the NBA’s Coach of the Year Award last year, compiled a 272-138 record in five seasons leading the Cavaliers. He also led the team to the playoffs in each of those seasons, including a Finals apperance in 2007.

Cleveland’s inability to return to the championship round in the last two years, especially after nabbing the league’s best record in both seasons, drew criticism of Brown’s ability to manage his team and winning rotations. A source also told SI.com that GM Danny Ferry, who does not have a contract for next season, is still with the team for the forseeable future.

Owner Dan Gilbert came back and said that for now – Brown is still the coach of the franchise, and while they will look at each and every aspect of the team, he has not been fired.

“We are right now just going through the evaluation process, getting all the information, talking to Coach Brown, talking to [general manager Danny] Ferry, talking to everybody and anybody,” Gilbert said. “You have to do that because you’re not going to — as ownership during the playoffs — you’re not going to go in and ask a thousand questions.”

Simply put, stay tuned.
