What did MJ use to suggest?Jordan used to make demands to the Bulls front office and they just ignored him and did other shyt... lucky for him though, because he was out there suggesting some dumb shyt anyway.
LeBron is bringing in a new era out here of the star player just controlling everything. There's been examples of this before, but nothing quite like Bron... most superstar players before have just been content being employees.

I can see AD getting this power soon. Not as much as LeBron, but eventually dude gonna realize he can call the shots.
The word was barkley and Ed Davis. But there were other....as a kid growing up media folks would swear MJ would go to management and recommend that Krause trade for one of his friends.
Would be nice. I am all for these brothas making these owners invest in the teams roster.
No, I didn't forget. I just don't make excuses for players when they fail.
You forgetting how bad they played? Forgetting that Shumpert was brought in to play D and hit open jumpers and Smith was brought into create shots and hit open jumpers?
LeBron was still able to get his team open looks. Those boys had every chance to put up 15-20 a game. They were flat out bricking wide open shots. Uncontested 3s and 18 footers just clanging off the rim.
That's on Love and Irving? If Kevin Love wasn't hurt JR would have not missed those wide open shots?
You mean how Blatt switched up their defensive scheme in the second half of the season - resulting in the #1 defense in the playoffs - DEFENSE being the main reason why they actually made it through to the Finals? If you're suggesting that LeBron ran his own plays against the Bulls/in the playoffs, it's certainly nothing to "thank god" about, when he had the WORST postseason (efficiency speaking) of his career:thank god LeBron is the coach
Cavs wouldn't have made it past the Bulls if they ran Maccabiball's plays at the end of games
39% shooting (25 shots to score 26 points) and 10% 3-pt shooting against the Bulls
41% shooting (27 shots to score 30 points), 22% 3-pt shooting and 29% on ALL jumpshots in the playoffs.
I'll let you [and your stupid ass agenda] cook though.

don't play dumb now @Gil Scott-Heroin
you know i'm talking about the last possession in game 4 when Blatt originally had Bron inbound the ball
and if you wanna talk about agendas you defending Blatt at all costs (just like Marc Stein on ESPN) is also an agenda
I'm well aware of the ONE possession you're talking about, the question is, why are you using ONE play as your argument instead of the ENTIRETY of the playoffs? Ya'know where defense kept them afloat - the very defense in which Blatt was the mastermind behind, or what about integrating JR/Shumpert/Mozgov midseason to the point where they were by far the best team in the East, or what about the rapport he built with the players en route to the Finals?
I defend him because dudes like you criticize him unfairly. It's not an agenda, because I wouldn't need to defend him if dudes like you actually used your [rock] brain.

GM bron need to add some depth to the bench if he wants to give coach bron the pieces he needs to win player bron another ring
