Cleveland Cavaliers 2012-13

    That's hysterical that they ranked Miami heat number 1. I'd put them middle of the pact or worse
  • SportsAndLady
    Heat #1? Sheesh, credibility instantly gone forbes
  • Tigerfan00
    A basketball crazy city like Chicago and no Bulls in the top 5-6 or no Lakers?

    The Brooklyn Nets? Its their first year there and somehow are already in the top 5?

    Hes done exactly what ANY other coach would be able to do with this team lol. If after this next season when you add 2 more first rounders and Andy is healthy(maybe for a full season) he still doesnt take them to at least the playoffs, id say firing him would be justified. IMO

    No other coach would do better than bottom 5 in the league every season?

    With the roster they have? Probably not.

    With what he had to work with?

    Edit, Wildcats beat me to it and I didnt look

    As a Cavs fan, I agree with this. Given roster + injuries, this team isn't good. Any time Kyrie comes off the floor, there is NO ONE that can create their own shot or any offensive threat. Thompson will get his, but only on rebounds. His offensive game needs A LOT of work.

    I think if (big if) Kyrie would have played 100% of the games this season, a different coach could have possibly had them contending for the 8 seed. Cavs have lost a lot of close games this year. When you lose a lot of close games, I place that on coaching.

    No coach would have gotten then out of last place in the division all 3 seasons? Give me a break...

    That doesn't answer my question at all. What is something Byron Scott has accomplished to earn a 4th season?

    Its possible Scott was the scapegoat all along. I dont like it, because he has had success with former teams, but I think it is a high possibility.

    Phoenix down 15, but the Cavs might not need them to lock up the #3 ping pong seeding. 34-16 Charlotte after 1.
  • bases_loaded
    The game isn't on HD on dish wtf
  • wes_mantooth
    Probably better to watch it a little blurry
  • Mulva
    Cavs have come back and made it a game. Phoenix has not.

    But Utah is down 17 in the 4th. Looks like the Lakers pick is ours.

    Byron Scott fired by Cleveland Cavaliers after 3 seasons.
  • dlazz
    Doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me, but I also don't care.

    This helped.

    Interesting to note, Cavs Fired Scott, Tribe fired Acta, and Browns fired Derpmur. Finished the tri fecta of shitty seasons for Cleveland sports.

    The stretch from 2010 to present has been the worst in Cleveland sports history. Usually at least 1 of the 3 teams has been good historically.

    Called the Byron Scott deal as soon as he got hired. Dude has a history of teams quitting on him. Never understand the thought process of hiring somebody who has already had two other head coaching jobs go sour
  • Gblock
    Cavs had one good player and zero talent after that. maybe if highest payed player verajo didnt get hurt. thompson led the league in getting his shot blocked and your second highest player is a 50 year old luke walton

    Rick Carlise disagrees with you. Nice fail though.

    Also, link to you calling this firing after the hire? I am pretty sure you were too busy being a passive agressive troll when LeBron left.
