    LeBron yells at Lue on the bench in loss.

    A few days later Lue is taking a break.

    Coincidence?

    Sounds more like stress and sleep deprivation. The expectations and pressure in CLE must be off the charts. First Kevin Love with anxiety attacks and now Lue with this. I don't mind seeing the downfall of the Cavs, it would be nice to see someone besides GSW and CLE in the finals, but I hate to see it go down like this.

    You know, that was my first thought, but I wasn't quite sure how to say it. You've summed it up nicely.

    Yeah, it was pretty clear who was in charge there. At that moment I remembered why I wouldn't want Lebron to pollute my team's chemistry with his shit, no matter how good he is at basketball.

    I'll stick with Dame and the Damettes, thank you.

    :cheers:

    LeBron definitely seems to like to have quiet little mousy coaches. Spoelstra is also a bit of a Dormouse, but Riley was always lurking in the shadows so I'm not sure if that was the same situation.

    I don't know how LeBron would do with a guy like Pop or Doc Rivers. Terry is a players coach so I'm sure they'd get along fine.

    Call me crazy but I’d still trade Stotts for Lebron.

    I'm more concerned with his affect on the players and team chemistry. Although I'd also worry about his coaching and his GM acumine. I like the team and management we have. Prima donas need not apply.

    I'd trade my sister to the Arabs for Lebron.

    Because Mike Brown was a mouse?

    People are actually entertaining NOT getting LeBron if it were even remotely possible?

    Pop likes to win and respects talent and hard work. I'm sure he'd get along just fine with LeBron.

    I know the nuggets game when to 2 OT, they just don’t play any defense. They are not giving themselves a good chance to make the playoffs.
