David Blatt's Camp Believes Firing Was '1,000 Percent LeBron

David Blatt's camp believes that his firing was "1,000 percent LeBron," as one supporter said over the weekend.

The Cleveland Cavaliers and LeBron James have each said that he played no part in the decision.

The Cavaliers hired Blatt in 2014 before they realized how seriously James wanted to return.

James has reportedly preferred a head coach who was formerly an NBA player, something he's only had in Paul Silas during his career. James and Tyronn Lue had also grown to have a healthier working relationship than he had with Blatt.

LeBron is a ego maniac. Pat Riley is the man for not bowing down to LeBron.

It's because LeBron James feels more comfortable around Black People.

Lebald had a meltdown after Curry humiliated him

So LeBron wants a head coach who's played in the NBA. So he doesn't want a great coach like Tom Thibodeau or Gregg Popovich on the Cavs.

...LeBron is a ego maniac. Pat Riley is the man for not bowing down to LeBron.

lebron is an egomaniac, but then so are most superstars. i think his standout problems are moreso his passive-agressive approach to decision-making, his large throng of yes-men, and the overestimation of his own coaching / GM skills.

the head coach is also way too important of a position to undermine or simply not get the best effort from. lebron should ordinarily be helping to build trust and communication with the coach, not waving off his plays, making him look bad, and making his job a PITA.

similar thing with kevin love. i mean, considering how much he persuaded the cavs to trade for him, it's rather mind-boggling the way lebron has gone out of his way to make love feel marginalised. it's like lebron is saying "we're going to win a championship at the time and place of my choosing, but it has to be done my way, with my people...... because i know best."

so yeah, maybe it is just pure egomania at the bottom of the well. and/or maybe a truckload of insecurity.
