Maybe not Romar. But like I said above, any coach with half a brain would have eventually moved Lebron to the post.allpurpleallgold said:
Anyone with half a brain could see Lebron needed to be in the post. It was getting the best player in the world to do something that he didn't want to do that was the accomplishment. Romar can't control college kids, he wasn't going to get Lebron to do it. Get fucking real.NeedleInTheSky88 said:
It's not like it took a genius to have Lebron play in the post. It was just a matter of time. Even Romar would have eventually done it if he had coached Lebron.allpurpleallgold said:
Spoelstra is the one that got Lebron to play in the post. That single coaching move is better than everything George Karl ever did.RaceBannon said:It's funny how all the great championship NBA coaches have all time great players.
Then you have the tier of guys who stayed employed a long time, won around 50 games a year, made the playoffs but never won it all. George Karl, Don Nelson types. Is Karl a better coach than Spoelstra? I would think he is. -
Do we all agree at this point that Love is an overrated POS?dnc said:
I know you're being sarcasmic but trading Kevin Love to LeBron for Andrew Wiggins was the best decision that franchise has ever made.NeedleInTheSky88 said:
Remember when the TWolves were seriously thinking of hiring LoRo a couple years ago? Best decision that franchise has ever made.Tequilla said:Bringing Romar into a conversation about whether or not coaching matters proves that coaching matters.

How can you hate a blue collar guy? The type who brings his lunch pail to work every day.TierbsHsotBoobs said:

Not really, I hated him at UCLA but I think he's just a bad fit in Cleveland. I think he'd be a really good #2 on the right team.TierbsHsotBoobs said:

Wiggins might be good enough to win a title as a #1 one day. He's definitely going to be good enough to win a title as a #2. BronBron blew that one.

Love couldn't do shit as a #1 and got benched in the fourth quarter in Cleveland.dnc said:

He's a statwhore.

Maybe you're right. One of his two dads does bleed grellow, after all.TierbsHsotBoobs said:

Probably a little overrated, and definitely wasn't a good fit with Lebron. And Lebron allegedly pushed for that trade too. So LBJ just flushed the ROY for not much in return.TierbsHsotBoobs said:

Lebrons a great player but he's gonna make MJ look like Jerry West if he ever becomes a GM.

LeBron fucked that up, but I also understand why he wanted Love instead. It was arguably dynasty changing. LeBron, Irving, Wiggins, and Thompson could be a great core for many years.dnc said:

LeBron will probably win a title in Cleveland, but Wiggins would have been perfect for the Cavs. Even right now he would make a big difference in this series. He's going to be really good. I bet he takes a big leap in year two. -
Love's numbers in Cleveland look just like Bosh's in Miami. Bosh was a better defender but Love a better rebounder and shooter.
He's not overrated. He's just not as good as Lebron and Irving.
It is funny that some people are calling Love a good stats bad team guy and sucking off Wiggins in the same breath.
I think Love is back in Cleveland next year. He'll do the same deal Lebron does. One year with a player option on the second. Then sign a max deal with the Lakers next year when the cap sky rockets. Unless LA does something dumb like give Rondo 10+ million a year before then.
And the guy that would be perfect for Cleveland right now is Kevin Love. -
Wiggins was a 19 year old rookie putting up good numbers. That's rare. It's a FS point to compare him to Love as being stat guys on shitty teams.allpurpleallgold said:Love's numbers in Cleveland look just like Bosh's in Miami. Bosh was a better defender but Love a better rebounder and shooter.

The Cavs obviously miss Love. He's good. Nobody disputes that. However, Shumpert is starting at the 2 for the Cavs. Wiggins is already much better than either Shumpert or JR Smith.
