He's a "name" coach with a couple of trips to the Finals and 50-win seasons on his resume, I can see LeBron getting on board with that hiring if his mind isn't already made up with the fallout of the 2010 season.
As Byron Scott establishes himself as the clear frontrunner for the Cleveland Cavaliers’ coaching vacancy, team executives have reached out to two of LeBron James’ friends – Chris Paul and Jason Kidd – to discuss their former coach.
Cavaliers general manager Chris Grant and assistant GM Lance Blanks made an initial round of calls to New Jersey Nets and New Orleans Hornets officials to research Scott shortly after the firing of Mike Brown, but are now digging deeper as they inch closer to making him a formal offer.

I yearned Scott's successful NJ career. Hornets? Sick job.
