I'm actually surprised this didn't happen after last season.

Haha okay sure why not!

So Tyronn Lue until they sign Luke Walton in the summer?

My surprise by this can only be expressed by one of the many pictures of Mike Brown looking utterly confused.

Multi-year contract?!? That's confident. Of course, it could also mean "this year and next," but still.

LeBron fired Blatt, not the Cavs. Bad thread title.

This reminds me of all the times that Lou Lamoriello would randomly fire whichever non-Jacques-Lemaire stooge was coaching the Devils to coach the team himself down the stretch because he "saw something he didn't like": one time he fired Claude Julien in 2007 with 104 points and three games to play.

To be fair, Gilbert has appeared to be almost as willing to pay multiple fired coaches and GMs at a time as another Cleveland franchise.

What he has been for last season and a half. Probably will continue.

Timing seems about right given the circumstances. Couldn't do it last year in the first year of the marriage.

Let's find more excuses as to why the "second best coach in the NBA" is still on the outside looking in. What's the excuse now? Thibodeau philes just new that this was going to be his job. What now?

The job was never open for any other candidate besides Tyron Lue.

LTG: There is no relationship between a coach's current unemployment status and his reputation as a coach. Coaches have agency they can exert whenever they feel like working again. The better coaches, like Thibs, can afford to be more selective. BTW, Hoiberg sucks and will never come close to Thibs' W-L record while with the Bulls.

So unless the Cavs win, LeBron becomes the Bizarro Magic?

Cleveland's gonna Cleveland. :lol:

A few years ago I would have taken a million shots at LeBron but I can't now because I like him.

It's odd, I've never really had any feelings one way or the other about LeBron. I won't ever question that he is a top ten all time player, but I've never had strong feelings about him one way or the other.
