Very shocking. Lebron must have decided he didn't like Blatt anymore.
What the hell?
Did he park in Lebron's spot or something?

100% Lebrons call
The fired him and gave the job to Tyronn Lue. What is going on in Cleveland?
Lue will do everything LeBron says
Every time I hear the name Tyronn Lue, I think:
quote:i texted my brother: "Lebron better step over Lue before each game instead of throwing powder in the air" when i head lue was going to be the coach
Every time I hear the name Tyronn Lue, I think:
LeBron is a fantastic player who knows a lot about basketball, but he isn't qualified to be the gm, which he seems to think he is. One of the largest payrolls in NBA history and he barely has any players on the roster who play defense.

Wow he isn't even the interim HC while they look for someone else. They've already signed him to a three year deal. A 38 year old with no HC experience and he gets a three year deal mid-season before he's ever coached a single game. Gilbert is an idiot.
DAFUQ?!
Just one more reason not to watch.
Unsurprising. Lebron is too headstrong and too much of a superstar to be coached by a lesser, unproven, coach. I think things worked in Miami because it was Wade's team and he must have liked Spolestra so Lebron went with it.
Blatt wasn't a Riley, Pop, or Phil so Lebron wasn't going to follow him if things got tough. We already saw it when he vetoed plays drawn up by Blatt.

Herein lies the Faustian Bargain for Cleveland.
You can stay bad or you have the opportunity to take at the time, the best player in the game.
The cost: control.
LeBron is 2-4 in 6 finals, and without a team to challenge them in the east, I think it is realistic he goes 2-7 or so.

You have to feel bad for Blatt. He didn't sign on to coach the lebron super friends.
Cleveland. Is every team in that town a flaming bag of dog ****?
i'm genuinely surprised there isn't someone on this thread upset that Johnny Manziel didn't take over as coach.
quote:No, but what it shows me is that Johnny is better off without LeBron's "Sports Group" in his life.

The lesson, as always, God hates Cleveland.
Stupid overreaction by Cavs management. They are so desperate to win this season. Unfortunately this is the same season that there are two historically great NBA teams. In a normal year, the Cavs would be the favorite to win the title
I was surprised Blatt didn't quit last year after it came out that James and the rest of the team were disobeying/ignoring anything that he had to say. Seems a bit like finding out your wife is sleeping with other guys and then just meekly pretending like you don't notice.
Cleveland gonna Cleveland.
If any of that stuff was true, it would've come out before blatt's firing. Not really buying that angle
It's woj though. He's not a rumors and speculation guy.
And you can't deny the power James has. Tristan Thompson is on a five year 82 million dollar deal because of James . 82 million!
I think James is still mad at Gilbert for the Comic Sans rant, and is trying to cost Gilbert as much money as possible while not giving him any championships.
Apparently Blatt was telling friends last week that he felt they would get rid of Kevin Love or himself soon. (This is according to Peter Vescey)
So yes, it appears the Cavs would do anything for Love, but they won't do Blatt. (joke ripped from r/nba)

Blatt also said to a reporter that Love wasn't a max level player. Players thought Love was getting traded.
