    I think legal liability should be a factor if you state something not true and it hurts a player and coach relationship. I think Lebron should sue and donate the proceeds to charity.

    Lebron was calling the plays
    Lebron was running the sideline
    Lebron was calling time outs
    Lebron was making the substitutions
    Lebron was guarding Iggy

    Tell me again how it's Blatt's fault?

    How do you know this as fact? This is Blatt's first year. Maybe he understands that winning with Lebron will do better for his career than losing with a team like Denver -- at least for the first few years.

    I for one am glad Stein had the balls to call out Lebron. These antics are something LOTS of writers know about, but few write about because no one wants to jeopardize their access to LBJ. Good for Stein to put out there for the general public and kudos to ESPN for not suppressing the story.

    I think blatt should really try to limit Lebron's minutes. He has more career minutes that Bird or Magic. He will pass Micheal in a year or two.There is a lot of mileage on that body.

    Just as a reminder...SI.com broke the Lebron to Cavs story...

    In regards to all of this BSPN crap, the truth lies somewhere in the middle. Hard to coach "the best player in the world" but Lebron isnt "emasculating" David Blatt.

    I'm sure they're both out of their element right now. Neither should be coaching a team with that much talent. In the corporate world it's not good or easy to bring in an up and coming, rookie, hotshot to lead someone who's considered the best in their industry. Employees will b**** and moan. Same problem here. Easy to see coming.

    The key is this : sure Theon did not kill any of the Stark children, but he was trusted by Robb Stark to find a solution to win the war and that's why he was sent home.

    He failed the trust of the Starks and hence he got his dick cut off.

    Blatt maybe not hurting the Cavs much in the playoff, at least he was not playing Perkins and Haywood together on the floor.

    But he surely did not help them to win at all, hence if he will lose his job or get insulted by the best player in the game now, he deserves it.
