Cavs close to hiring Scott as head coachBasketball Betting Lines07/01/2010 - Cleveland, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Cleveland Cavaliers are reportedly close to hiring Byron Scott as their next head coach. Several media sources report the Cavs were in negotiations with Scott, who started last season as head coach of the New Orleans Hornets before being fired just nine games into the 2009-10 campaign. Scott was in his sixth season with the Hornets and was in the final year of a two-year extension he signed in May of 2008 when he was let go. Scott compiled a record of 203-216 during his tenure in New Orleans. The Cavs fired Mike Brown after a second-round playoff loss to Boston. Brown spent the last five seasons with the Cavs and guided the team to a record of 272-138. The Cavs were looking to make a splash with a big-name coach by trying to lure Tom Izzo to the NBA ranks, but Izzo opted to stay at Michigan State for what seems the duration of his career. Lakers assistant Brian Shaw also was a finalist to coach the Cavs, but withdrew his name from consideration Wednesday. The Cavaliers face the possibility of a bigger change this summer should reigning two-time MVP LeBron James leave the team. Before taking over in New Orleans, Scott guided the New Jersey Nets to a record of 149-139 with a pair of NBA Finals appearances in three-plus seasons. After leading the previously-moribund Nets to the league title series in the spring of 2002 and 2003, Scott was fired with a 22-20 mark midway through the 2003-04 campaign. Scott was an assistant coach with Sacramento for two seasons after a 14-year playing career with the Lakers, Pacers and Grizzlies. He won three NBA titles during the late 1980s with the Lakers.
