Woj: Cavs fire David Blatt

[lebron23james]

First place in the East with the team finally healthy, why was a change needed?

I thought they needed a trade more than a coaching change imo

Ty Lue taking over, per Woj. Multi-year deal.

It usually takes days for this to happen. This happens within minutes of Blatt being fired. The Cavs are a joke. You seriously can't make this stuff up.

 

[ManuForever]

I should have been, easy chip with me at the helm no doubt

You'd have gotten fired after being found in an affair with LeBron in the team locker room.

 

[lebron23james]

Wonder what the reasoning is for firing him. Cavs are 30-11 and the best team in the East.

Don't hate cuz we are efficient

They've made so many moves over the years, they just need to realize that successful teams typically have built great chemistry. Look at the Spurs, same core every year basically with minor moves that help them out. Warriors had some rough years with Steph and Klay but they stuck it out and didn't do anything drastic and got lucky that Green turned out to be a stud in the draft, but again… no major trades.

Sometimes the best moves are the ones you don't make. Let guys build chemistry on the court, it's one of the most underrated aspects players can have and be the difference between winning a title and going home empty handed.

Think Lebron casually mentioned flirting with going to another team.??

Better give him his demands or else Gilbert.

"has Gilbert by the balls" doesn't even BEGIN to cover it...

Zero titles. Efficient, got it.

 

[Heatles84]

You'd have gotten fired after Lebron files for a restraining order on you.

FIFY

Windhorst said lebron wasn't even consulted about it

 

[purguy12]

83-40 with a trip to the Finals just ain't good enough I guess. Watch them hire Thibs lol.

wow that would be scary.

 

[Heatles84]

So, this is why Lebron needed Pat Riley and his structure. Pretty rash decision, IMO.

With this move, Lebron can't fault the coach if he comes up short again.

 

[Heatles84]

wow that would be scary.

Don't worry. Lue's already agreed to a multi-year deal to become their new HC.

uh huh...

I have beachfront in Colorado I can sell you...

 

[Arizona_Sting]

Breaking: LeBron retires and assumes the head coaching position and has also bought the team, state and entire country. Details to follow.

[Iggloo]

This is absolutely hilarious.

Dan doesn't sneeze without checking with Lebron first.
