Ferry to resign as GM

so the cavs have basically fired their head coach and GM, after winning the regular season twice.

fire Lebron next.

 

If you could fire a free agent....

 

Lebron ran his GM out of town. This guy did a phenomenal job to put a team around the "King".

 

Thank you for summarizing this for me. Eyenga was the dude playing overseas that Ferry recently wasted his 1st draft pick on.

Anybody who think Ferry has done a good job building around Lebron doesn't know good team management. He's literally like some random dude walking on the street who got a GM job, the guy simply didn't know what he was doing.

Overall I give him a "D", right up there with Chris Wallace and David Kahn.

 

heh. the only king that i know that has no jewelry on his hands.

 

I think he did a terrible job. All he did was recruited old players that had no where else to go. Did Mr. Ferry brought the Cavaliers any quality player that required the least bit of effort? Seriously? I really don't think he did.

 

but before the season Shaq was going to be awesome, and a game changer!!!!

 

I'm really curious to know just how much of Ferry's acquisitions were influenced by Lebron. I know there were lots of rumors regarding Lebron wanting the Cavs to resign his favorite guys. And I wonder if Ferry actually tried to acquiesce Lebron's demands at the expense of the team.

 

see this is what happens when your player runs a team, but can't back it up. '

 

I agree. Its a good move for the cavs organization. There has to be changes made after several frustrating seasons.

The decision making in the front office and the coaching was not that good.

First they get dominated by dwight howard so they anticipate this by acquiring shaq.
the next season they get dominated by rajon rondo, a pg, and they don't even meet the dominant center they prepared for. Now they are trading their pgs possibly because of the rondo threat.

The decision making seems to be short sighted and the coach hasn't built a system that is championship caliber.

Phil Jackson has his triangle defense, rick adelman has his princeton offense, Doc rivers has his own system which emphasizes execution, Mike brown usually ran isolations for lebron james.

This is not the era of mandated man to man and illegal defenses, where you can just run an isolation play for your star player and anything goes from there. It is now more complicated with zones, man to man , and half breed man-zone defenses.

How could danny ferry miss that Ben Wallace and Larry Hughes are overpaid and overrated?

 

And right after the Jamison trade, we heard it's the final piece.

 

of course. but when lebron fails and the playoffs and quits and has 9 turnovers in the elimiantion game, everybody on his team SUCKS

 

On paper it absolutely should have been. The Cavs organization needs to look no farther than the players if they want to know why they are not in the NBA Finals right now.

 

what antics? actually carrying that team to an NBA Finals three years ago, or eventually losing to the Eastern Conference champs the last two seasons?

you might not like to Lebron, but the guy tried to win, bottom line.

 

More like his coach offensive gameplan sucks. That give the ball to LeBron and everyone move out of the way stuff works in the regular season but you can't win a Championship that way when teams are able to put all of their focus on your team.

 

I'll take Lebrons' side on that. He has never had a coach/dad

Kobe grew up around pros, and his dad played. and he has Phil

Lebron has not had that. but would you agree his stats will absolutely go down, when he gets a new offensive game plan? that is a fact.

 

It depends on what offensive game plan he plays under. I think it is a good chance his assist would go down slightly not a whole lot. I think his scoring would remain about the same in any offense.

 

I didn't see Woj's article posted. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=aw-lebroninfluence060510
