Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
You are wrong... again. Dude is outta of his league and it has nothing to do with getting a 'rim protector' or not.

The Cavs have the 4th best offense in the NBA, their defense is 22nd, please explain to me how they can get better on defense when

Love gives up 61% FG at the rim
Thompson gives up 50% at the rim

Ontop of that they give up 44.7ppg in the paint which is 23rd in the league, so tell me how the defense gets better when it's clearly a roster issue.

Their defense is putrid because they're starting a 36 year old small forward at the 2, and their big men combine for less bpg than guys that play 18mpg.

:mjlol:

however, anyone could see this coming a mile away. since lebron didn't pick the coach, it was only a matter of time. these teams really be having to sell their soul to the devil when you bring in lebron cuz of all the demands that he makes for him and his team including personnel, coaching, and other ammenities such as team jobs for his entourage members.

well they hired the guy to coach kyrie, waiters, wiggins, thompson and bennett. They wanted a legit coach with an offense after the Mike Brown mistake (again). When lebron came back his job description changed from "develop young players" to "win a championship."

Dude is either not prepared or the players (Le-Iso) are ignoring his play calls. His rotations this season have been suspect and he relies on the big 3 way too much. We will see how things work out :snoop:

they was gonna respect a euro coach? GM should be fired as well
It doesn't matter if the team trusts Blatt if Bron doesn't and doesn't run his offensive system.

Blatt had no one to bring with him from Israel, likely because no one was qualified. His top assistant now, Tyronn Lue, was the runner-up for this job and is now believed to be the highest-paid assistant coach in NBA history. He also has James’ familiarity and trust. Whenever LeBron looks to the Cavs’ bench during games, he’s looking at Lue. Every time.

They were such strangers that at his introductory press conference, Blatt mispronounced Lue’s first name.
James didn't meet face-to-face with Blatt for nearly a month after signing with the Cavs, a supposed product of scheduling issues, though it is safe to assume the team gladly would've flown Blatt to any location in the world to spend time with James as the new coach was preparing for his new job over the summer.
"Instead, [Blatt] doesn’t dare say a cross word toward his superstar publicly or privately. Nobody right now is telling LeBron what he can or can’t do."

His career was doomed as soon as LeBron went to Cleveland
c/s

I didn't see nothing wrong with the hiring of Blatt in the beginning. Cleveland wasn't even on the radar.. then low and behold the great one is returning home once more. I'm sure the Cavs would've let LeBron pick the coach had they known he was returning
