There are plenty of rumors swirling that LeBron James ultimately got former Cleveland Cavaliers coach David Blatt fired. Coaches are pretty upset with the firing and most people who aren't Cavs fans are either confused or hilariously delighted with general manager David Griffin making such a monumentally dumb decision. However, it seems that the decision might have been LeBron's all along as he's tried to do this before.
Thank goodness Erik Spoelstra wasn't fired because he ended getting two championship rings out of it and went to the NBA Finals four straight times! He's now one of the longest tenured coaches in the league only behind Spurs coach Gregg Popovich. This kind of back door dealing has made James an enemy of some people and it sounded like broadcaster Jeff Van Gundy is one of them. The firing prompted an incredible quote from him about being coachable.
And he isn't wrong. Instead of complaining about the coach you have, just work your butt off and be glad you don't have Tyronn Lue's new run and gun system.
