You have not chance beating GS at small ball with Kyrie out. Your only advantage at that point is size and you take it out? :what:
they went big in game 4 and lost by 20.

Golden State just pushed the pace and used their team speed.

if you were already conceding the finals based on that then the smartest coaching move of all would've been sitting james for the series :ld:.

if the Eastern conf. was such a cakewalk, would've been a great opportunity to tinker with lineups in anticipation for what was going to be a brutal finals opponent no matter who it was.
this is nonsense

like i said, you have no idea what he even did wrong that cost them the series.

Cavs with that roster had no business playing the defense they did all playoffs. Blatt is a top 3 defensive coach easily. They were the 2nd best D behind GS.......................They were a Bran 30ft leaning left fadeaway over Iggy away from going up 3-0[/QUOTE]
No the fukk they wasn't. You think if they won game 1 everything would of happened the exact same way it did?

Blatt is a victim of the rabid Lebron dikk sucking.

They were down 6 headed into the 4th in game 4. It's not like Cleveland had an answer for that with their small ball lineup. Which is why Blatt went right back to Mosgov in game 6.

Right. So how does that demonstrate that going small was a good idea? The only success they had in the series came from their big lineup.
when did I say it was a good idea?

He tried to adjust to it, and that did not work ether. My stance has been Blatt did the best any coach would have done in that situation.

When Golden State went super small, that was the end of the series.

Well my whole point was that it wasn't a good idea and the way that you responded gave a strong implication that you disagreed with that.

thats fair.

My whole position is that it didnt matter.

Only @dummy thinks Blatt could have done something different to win the series after Golden State went super small.
