Adios Blatt.

[ElNono]

Blatt is dropping the truth nukes because he knows he's gonna get the pink slip soon... probably before the All Star Week...

[Splits]

This is why Jews own teams and don't coach them, this Zionist pig wouldn't pay max shekels to Yahweh.

[scanry]

He's not wrong. :lol

[Robz4000]

Truth nuke. Must mean he's getting the axe soon. Tomorrow maybe?

[Brunodf]

25/10 -21 :lol

[DJR210]

Love is a max Knicks player.

[Malik Hairston]

Sucks for Blatt, tbh..

I keep seeing these idiot fans blaming him for the Cavs' defense :lmao..

Let Pop and Thibodeau form a coaching duo with their defensive knowledge, and they still wouldn't be able to get anything defensively out of a roster with Kyrie Irving, Kevin Love, Mike Miller, Dion Waiters and no rim protector..their best defenders are current Lebron(an average defender, at best) and 38-year old Shawn Marion:lol..this team is relying on Iman fucking Shumpert, ranked as one of the worst defenders in the league this season, to be their defensive stopper..

He's going to get fired, despite the fact that he didn't want anything to do with LeCoon's version of the Cavs, he joined them before LeCoon and Love even agreed to be Cavs players:lol..

LeCoon's supporting cast in Miami was overrated, but his situation wasn't..Riley ran the organization and called the shots, which is why it worked..we've already seen that allowing LeCoon to call the shots only leads to failure..

[ViceCity86]

Lebron is currently player/coach/GM/Owner

[100%duncan]

Sad thing is he's gonna get the blame from casual fans.

[Sean Cagney]

Damn right he is not, a loser stat padder is what I thought he was in Minny and now he is one in Cleveland with Lebron out, still losing and overrated but good stats. Love is a flat out Jump shooter man, can't play D nor has a great post game, shoots way too many outside shots for a big IMO. He is good no doubt, but not a max or franchise player, a good #2 or #3 on a team but that is about it.

[mavsfan1000]

Also needs a lot of shots to shoot well. Not a good fit for a legit team.

[HI-FI]

If he's fired looks like I'll be wrong in my "the Tribe will take care of its own" prediction. He'll get another shot somewhere else though.

[Malik Hairston]

Love is fine, tbh, he is what he is..

A team that signs Love, a known defensive liability, but surrounds him with other defensive liabilities, and literally no competent defenders to negate his flaws? That's just terrible roster construction..

[sook]

It doesn't fucking matter if he's right, you don't say that to someone you traded your #1 pick for :lol

You keep your mouth shut and throw the drink in his face by trade deadline. If you can't trade his ass, he walks.

exactly... this is like when D'Antoni said he hates the post up when the Lakers wanted to make Dwight happy :lol

[Malik Hairston]

^^ I'm assuming it was a misunderstanding, tbh, Blatt thinking Love isn't a Max player yet, since his upcoming Free Agency has been widely discussed..

He's not the GM, he's the coach, and he's new to the NBA, so it's possible and probable IMO..I don't think he would randomly take a shot at Love, unless there's some shit going on behind the scenes..

[baseline bum]

I'm going to die laughing when they hire Mark Jackson.

:lol would be the perfect ending to this disastrous Cavs season, tbh..

:( But at least White people love me again :(

[ElNono]

I'm going to die laughing when they hire Mark Jackson.

Gilbert looks like the guy that would hire Mike Brown for a 3rd time, tbh

[Robz4000]

You're both wrong, Vinny Del Negro is getting the call...

As I said back in the summer, the role they wanted Love to fill could have easily been filled with a cheaper player. Love didn't make sense for the Cavs at all.

But there are teams like the Spurs (post Duncan) who could slot in Love effectively. Spurs need a first option and have more than enough defenders to cover up Love's deficiencies on that end. Even GS would have been a good fit for him.

[Chinook]

Also :lol at people thinking he's better than Bosh.

Blatt is mediocre and now publicly throwing his players under the bus, but Media has already carefully set up the narrative that no matter what happens, it's LeBron's fault that he's getting fired :lol

Meanwhile, Kirby can go through coaches like used toilet paper with nary a peep from Media.

thats really the conclusion you got out of this?

Stop cocksucking Lebron. Put Pop in that roster and he still wouldn't win the East with how things are going.

[hater]

Love is one of the most empty stat paders in history. Never seen him dominate any game, just coast to 20 and 20 or whatever.

Even young Pau Gasol in the Grizz could take over games and took his team to the playoffs although he got bounced easily. But as I said even young Pau Gasol was more of a difference maker than this ghost called Love imo

[Mr Bones]

George Karl said it best: If you ask NBA coaches and scouts, there are 12, maybe 15 max/franchise players. If you ask agents, there are 35.

If every knowledgeable basketball fan on the planet identifies you as a defensive liability, you aren't a max player. It's that simple.

So how long before you flip flop on LeBron like you did with CP3 and fivehead, imo?

[Clipper Nation]

Nothing to flip-flop on, tbh. LeBron has rung as the alpha, something that neither Fivehead nor Choke will ever do.

[RsxPiimp]

Love is far more important than anyone not named Lebron in the Cavs. If you really want to point fingers, it should be at Kyrie who completely disrupts chemistry on the court.

Anyway his comments have been blown out of proportion.

[Koolaid_Man]

Kobe led Paussy surprised Lebronze can't lead Love...no pun intended btw...lol
