    That was not really a stupid move by Blatt. LeBron was not shooting well that game, and that look he got from the corner was definitely not a high percentage one. They had a difficult time inbounding the ball and it makes sense that the Bulls defense would try to prevent LeBron from getting the ball.
    So yea, he made that shot in the end, but I'm not sure that was the best play for those 1.5 seconds.

    Actually I think Blatt isn't doing too bad considering the roster at his disposal, the limited time that team has played together and the injuries to Love and Irving.

    So. This guy was heralded as a tough, no-nonsense coach that would control the lockerroom, manage egos, and draw up genius plays.

    And he's just sitting here making excuses lol.
    This is and always has been LeBron's team.

    I don't think anyone would care, if he was coaching say Jeremy Lin, instead.


    That was evil, sorry folks.

    JVG is getting really annoying this year, his ranting is becoming the unfunny version of Dr. Cox in Scrubs: constant, long and many times way off topic. He was already doing it, but he rarely comments on plays in a normal way anymore. Guess his buddy being back might have something to do with it. I feel sorry for Cavs-Bulls fans that they have listen to that ****.

    I'm fine with ranting during the dull moments in a game but he starts ranting during big plays which is kind of annoying.
