Cavs' Brown rips team's effort after loss to Wizards

Mike Brown isn’t necessarily the type to rant and rave, but that didn’t stop the Cavaliers coach from calmly launching into a blistering critique of his players following Cleveland’s 98-91 home loss to Washington on Wednesday night.

“We didn’t compete,” Brown said bluntly, in comments recorded by Fox Sports Ohio. “We had one guy that competed the entire time he was on the floor, and that was Matthew Dellavedova.”

“I’m not trying to be funny,” Brown continued. “[The effort] is a concern. That’s a concern for anybody when you don’t go out there and compete and play hard."
