Blatt won multiple Euro and league championships. Won an Olympic bronze medal. He has proven, he can win without Lebron. But it takes a very good coach to make what you call nobodies in to better players. And name one coach that led a team to a NBA championship with out a bonafide superstar. Maybe Brown's piston but again, all 5 starters were all star caliber players.Quote:

Just a joke man. I know where your coming from. People just want to throw Blatt under the Bus as riding Lebron's coat tails or just simply because he is Jewish.Quote:

So no other team in the East has a coach as good as David Blatt. No other team has a center as good as Timofey Mozgov. Oddly, it was Kevin Love and Kryrie Irving being credited before. People will do anything, turn somersaults to keep from giving Lebron his due.Quote:

Do you feel support for Israel in the US?
"There's support, although sometimes it's not enough. In my opinion, though, there's more support this time than before."
lebron is the straw the stirs the drink. but Blatt is doing a good job with a bad roster.Quote:

Even former players that played under Parcells said he was unbearable at times, BUT, they all said they were better players because of him. Even the Cowboys players said that about Parcells when he coached them.
Some of the players probably aren't used to Blatt's bluntness. But, hell, from this NBA finals performance thus far, you can tell the Cavs has taken on Blatt's toughness. Without it, the Cavs more than likely would be down 3-0 right now especially with Irving being out.
And no, I never gave any credit to Love. I always thought he actually held the Cavs back with his horrible defense and inability to play the inside outside sets of Blatt. Cavs have been playing much better since he got injured.
Some coaches are greatQuote:

Doesn't mean being an unliked hardass makes you a great coach.
And Media has already judged & labeled Blatt= He's white, he's above James in the supposed hierarchy, he's white, he won't play Media's game, he's white. Let's see if he keeps his scruples, win OR lose. Him & Dova both.Quote:

I understand the pain having to put up with Kirbyball.
Spurs fans suffered and laughed with you during the chuckfests.
Don't start your shit. I'm in a good mood. I just dumped Splits in the sand trap on #18 Beth Page Black. lmvictoriousao!!!Quote:

Look at Pop. Duncan has a knee problem, 1st round lost against the Sonics. Manu gets injured, Lakers Backdoor sweep Spurs. Manu get injured last game of the season, 1st round exit as the #1 seed.
'08 through '11 playoff drought was all due to injuries to Timmy, Parker and Manu.
Blatt has been dealing with injuries all season and in these playoff and has his team 2 wins away from a title. I am sorry, Pop, Spo, Jackson, Rivers, etc. have never won a championship with 2 of their best 3 players out. Just admit that Blatt has proved everyone wrong.

Watch from beginning to see Cavs quit on Blatt after he made a lineup change away from shitty Mo Williams/Richard Jefferson to Shump and Delly (which ended up taking them to the finals, stupid egotistical LeBron...).
Skip to 4:05 to see LeBron get son'd by our own mute cancer Kawhi
It's stuff like this that puts those chinks in Lebron's armor as the #1 of all time. There are all these talks about Lebron playing LeCoach and LeGM, essentially to the detriment to winning to stroke his ego.
I still think Blatt would be able to be a great coach for a young team.
fuck blatt that zionist scum
