I said it first. Me
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.
There are coaches that can devise great schemes. Blatt does this on the defensive end.

I am happy for you. Is there any way I can give you a gold star.
I don't usually toot my own horn. I don't need credit. I was just making a point.
I am more partial to the silver star.
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.
Makes no difference. Guy has proven already win or lose this finals that he is an NBA caliber coach.
& it was imperative that it be enunciated, and we've done so, _Spurs.
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.
Yeah and it was Spo before that, and before that Mike Brown was a defensive specialist. Odd that Lebron played for all of them.
This is so ignorant. There is absolutely no justification to blame his religion or heritage. There is every reason to blame his Zionist pig mentality, one that justifies the slaughter of 450+ children.
Do you support the operation?
"Absolutely. In my opinion, this war is Israel's most justified war I can remember in recent years. I'm really sorry about what's happening in Gaza, but there's no doubt that we had to act there, so that Israel will have quiet there once and for all, and we can live in peace."
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.
Stirring it, yes, but, he's always been susceptible to influences: Amy, A/C, jump balls. Blatt is the one who defied NBA dictates that if one team does it all must do it. He went back to ISO. Blatt
I know, but, he's incontinent.
"Right now, one-man brutal ball is besting vibrant ball. The team that's fun, the one where everyone seemingly gets along, is losing to a squad with a fissure between its coach and some of its players. (It's noticeable when Dellavedova is the only Cavs player to return coach David Blatt's postgame hug attempts.)" -ESPN
ESPN..... you mean BSPN.
You know who Blatt reminds me of. Bill Parcells. A hard ass, no non-sense coach that steps on people toes. I am a Cowboys fan but you have to hand it to Parcells. His team's were tough as due to his hard-nose coaching.
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, , 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 great
Some coaches are hardass
Some coaches are unliked
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.
Because scruples are what you're all about, eh?
The year Dallas won the championship they moved the ball around something like the greatest team effort ever seen:
The 2014 SA Spurs making Lebron quit... Literally shoving movement down the bowels of the king and driving him whimpering to Cleveland.
Beautiful basketball killing ugly, something LA fans have only had a sniff of with Magic.
I understand the pain having to put up with Kirbyball.
Spurs fans suffered and laughed with you during the chuckfests.
Don't start your . I'm in a good mood. I just dumped Splits in the sand trap on #18 Beth Page Black. lmvictoriousao!!!
Video golf. Ever pull a virtual hamstring?
