ESPN: Bickerstaff fired
(15 minutes later)
ESPN: Lakers are interested in Bickerstaff
Only if LeBron says so
Nobody knew or cared about anything Cavs related during Bickerstaff's run, but now all of a sudden everyone pretends to know everything about the Cavs.. any Cavs fan saw this coming a mile away..
Facts
EXACTLY!!! All these idiots see the playoffs and play-in, but don't see some of the antics
right, heard reports that he lost the clubhouse awhile ago, and cavs want better development for Mobely and Garland, and likely going after a offensive minded coach.
Boo hoo cry me a river 😭
Very true. These 3 dipshits know nothing about the Cavs.
Bickerstaff has always been the footstool for the next coach
Have you witnessed JB...
That’s sucks because Cavs garbage prior to him getting there.
@@gxhtdythey’re not good now 😂 the Cavs are lebron without him they will do nothing ever
@@redz8274 So your saying it doesn’t matter the coach they are going to garbage? GTFOH they went from 22 wins 4 years ago to making the playoffs the past two years. That’s progress because of JB.
@@gxhtdy honestly they had a down 2 years rebuilding after going to 4 straight finals… then they made the playoffs or play in each of the last 3 years. Honestly in 2020 they were rolling after the all star break and could have made noise but the season was cut short
Clearly these guys know nothing.. JB bickerstaff almost lost his job in December then guys got hurt and we went on a killer run BECAUSE OF DONOVAN.. then we get our players back and they wet the bed again.. he doesn’t call plays, he doesn’t make in game adjustments he only plays 7/8 deep and he just yells at the refs the whole game … he’s not as good as yall think
This is the most accurate comment I've seen. Straight facts. J.B. had to gooooo
is that why he was there for 4.5 years?
@@adotintheshark4848 I don't think J.B. was able to fit Mitchell into his gameplan effectively. All he did was iso ball with him. Not very good playmaking for him.
Fax
I'm guessing a lot of people didn't really watch the cavs this season especially during the playoffs.
They had the guy for 5 years. Why are they acting like Cleveland is running through coaches ? 😂😂
Yea he had his run, he reminds me of Nate McMillan , no philosophy comparison, but he’s a good coach, just not enough to win it all.
Key don’t want nobody to ever get fired bless his heart
Its trauma lol
@@JustTweakin from what? I don't watch NFL
Because their black
@@123shoshancorrect
@@kaysheye7784 he got fired before he got on undisputed from the show with jay Williams & max kellerman
JB was coach for 4.5 seasons. That is NOT changing coaches all the time...
What coach are you going to get to do better
@@PhoenixRising82672 no clue who is next. JB did a good job, made some questionable decisions but they all do! I just hope it is someone with Offensive creativity and a Defensive guru..Gotta see what players stay and who's coming in.
@@PhoenixRising82672it’ll be Kenny Atkinson, Borrego, or Vogel
Sounds like he had a problem with upper management. JB was always a bridge coach for other teams.
Contextually it is; especially since NO MATTER the coach, that roster isn’t winning anyway
Paul “didn’t hear any rumblings about this”? It’s been talked about since the end of last season. 😂😂😂
Exactly
Meanwhile my Bulls committed to Billy Donovan after winning only ONE playoff game with us SMH..........
Meanwhile doc has a job from getting carried to a chip almost 20 years ago😂
Billy will be done next year after the bulls pull a Detroit lose 29 in a row
@@johnnybraxton5539 Hopefully, my Bulls will be fully healthy so that DOESN'T happen. However, we almost pulled a Detroit *this* season with our HORRENDOUS start!
@@TheUltimateRage Lonzo is only 70 percent healthy after 2 years lol it's over
I agree SMH he's the number one bulls problem
If anyone is questioning this move they clearly didn’t watch the Cavs the last few years.
His rotations, offensive schemes (including ATO), and his feel for when to call timeouts were abysmal. The team lost faith in him by all reports this year.
JB is the type of coach to get you from the bottom to a good team but not the type to take you from a good team to a champion. He also had no idea what to do with Mobley or DG this year. The lack of growth from Mobley and DG is also a reason since he clearly didn’t have a plan and let micthell play hero ball a lot.
Well, that was the justification for the Bucks firing Coach Bud and Milwaukee has been spiraling down since. Same reason they fired Adrian Griffin, because his defense schemes were lacking, even though they were 2nd in the EC at the time. Now they’re stuck with Doc Rivers 😂
I get what you’re saying, but if there’s not a better option in the open market, you’re just chasing your tail. There are no Nick Nurses and Ime Udokas available. They’re going to hire Frank Vogel or Darvin Ham? 😂
Mobley has no offensive game.
@@ninocrown3247 and it was the same reason the warriors got rid of Mark Jackson and went with Steve Kerr
I would assume the Cavs have a plan and they’re a better coaches out there than JB (imo) like James Borrego and Kenny Atkinson. I also think a guy like Micha Nori from the wolves would be a great hire as well. I would also take Vogel or Quinn Snyder over JB but they wouldn’t be my favorite targets in this coaching search.
You are ryt
I agree with you bro
They only watch highlights everyone in Cleveland understands why! They only talked about this because it have something to do with the Lakers they hope 😂😂😂
They don’t watch Cavs games obviously
Just goes to show how little these guys pay attention to Cleveland sports. I think every Cavs fan knew and was hoping Bickerstaff would be gone after this season
I like JB as a coach but this was the right move… he’s a good regular season coach but not ready for deep playoff runs…
The Cavs are on a timeline right now and they can’t wait on that development
Donovan Mitchell played for Freakin' Rick Pitino......I have spoken
Seriously, NBA teams shouldn't have a head coach. All these players think they know better and don't want to listen to anybody telling them anything.
He was bickering with the staff too much.
And the refs and everyone else dude is always complaining
😂
@@LOVEisACTIONABLEWhich every coach does.
I see the word play bickering with the staff😂😂Lol 😂
Womp womp
You can tell they just don't know anything about the cavs and never watched them. Don't even know garland broke his jaw.
I like JB, but his tome was running out, because they were regressing, looks are deceiving. Offensively, it had to change. Garland and Allen are getting traded, the Cavs needs more athleticism and length on the wings
I agree
Yup ✅
JB ISN'T THAT DUDE NEXT
Lebron coming is coming back to Cleveland and Lebron just wanted to make sure the coach was fired before he gets there.
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
😂😂😂 Lebron getting blame even when he’s not on the team 🤣
It was well known he lost the locker room not just Mitchell.
They’re just not good enough
Skip: “You interested?”
Key: “Idk enough about him”
How do you not know about the coach you’re paid to talk about on TV???
Key must be working on a discount 🫨
I watch EVERY Laker game and I’m not familiar with Bickerstaff, I get that Key is getting paid to discuss this topic, but to truly be familiar with a coach, you’d have to follow that team consistently. Lakers only played the Cavs 1-2 times a season.
Undisputed needs to be Skip: Unleashed 😂 Get a Max Kellerman to spar with 🥊. No worries on racial undertones if against another white guy either. He can play nicer with other panelists, but go at it with Max 💯
Max would be good here, especially on topics about boxing.
@@karlblackwell4819 max ventured out well into other sports against SAS. He at least is someone skip can get into it with. He is playing too nice to point of hug sessions with Key soon 😧
Are you sure about the no racial undertones with Max, last I checked Max was black 😅
@@nicholashewitt6556 haha SAS didn’t like he had more cred than em 🤷🏾♂️
His “Staff was Bickering “ literally.
This didn’t make sense! Sometimes you just got to look at the players
I heard they wanted to give Allen a shot for the pain but he said no😂
If Donovan Mitchell had something to do with the firing of the coach, Cavs pounced. I'm hearing Mitchell is happy to be in Cleveland and he didn't have any disregards for any of the coaching staff. Sooooo... this firing is cryptic.
At this point all the top coaches got multiple guaranteed contracts😂😂😂
JB couldn’t even call plays it was just give Mitchell the ball and bail me out he was terrible I’m sorry
Cleveland Cavaliers fired 5 black head coaches
There hasn’t been a new coach in Cleveland for over 3 years. That’s a decade in Cavs time
Reach the playoffs. Your reward: fire the coach. The NBA is weird. That’s why I love the NFL. Can’t let the inmates run the asylum. This is what you get. Teams regress because there is no leadership. Players CAN’T be leaders like coaches.
A lot of coaches are former NBA players. Try again.
The NFL Is Garbage Ngl
@@mprcapo666 why? Because divas don’t run it? Getting winning coaches fired because of their feelings? 😂
Dan Glbert is such a 🤡
@@michaelolmedo6764 Paint Drying On Dirty Wall Is More Entertaining Tbh
Damn Lebron James got another coach fired.
Stop it
.... idk if it's CTE or what, but we didn coach hop...JB was our HC for 4 and a half seasons. We let go of Beilein because he was a terrible coach and there was a rumor he said some racial stuff to his players
Mitchell needs a running mate in the name of a small forward who can score and rebound. Mobley has not been coached properly and is not the guy. If you haven't seen his brother Isaiah play, he is better than his overrated brother and sat at the end of the bench all year. Too many ongoing concerns with no answers for over two years is inexcusable and it caught up with Bick. He was topped out. They were lucky they got past Orlando, because his team was embarrassed too many times.
I guess y’all gonna blame Bron for this too
The national media all year have tried to send Mitchell to LA, Knicks and any other team except Cleveland. IF they watched the Cavs play you would see JB was not the guy.
Keyshawn is too handsome to look like he sells copy paper for a living😊😊
This is like dating a girl who is 225 pounds. You train her and get her to 170 and she dumps you. Cleveland has to remember they are Cleveland. Lebron ain't walking through that door.
Sounds like it odds are he's coming thru that door soon enough
@@LOVEisACTIONABLE Why would he? Mitchell won't even be there. He'll be in Miami.
What does LeBron have to do with this? Dude was an OKAY coach. His rotations were god awful and his offense was pathetic! It was time for him to go and most Cavaliers fan’s knew it.
@@kennethsmith6367 At the end of the day this is CLEVELAND. The second round is likely their ceiling plus their main star was hurt. They weren't beating Boston regardless. Not this year for sure. I say they should have kept him and continued to build. Getting rid of the coach because either A Donavan didn't like him or B you believe it will help keep him and possibly lure Lebron is a bad move. You're CLEVELAND.
paul p right on the money. i cannot think of what else this coach could have done to deserve to get fired? like we could talk about other top coaches who do not get their teams ready for games 2 or games 7 and nobody talks about their responsibility
“When your best players IS.” Great grammar
Bickerstaff not a bad coach. I just wouldn’t have played Caris LeVert as much
Paul Pierce should just stop talking.
Think about all those teams who got their coach fired … they usually do not do well
Paul is right---the Lakers should go after Bickerstaff...better than Redick...the plumber.
Worst firing since mark Jackson when he was coaching the warriors!
Dumb comment, Warriors became a dynasty after he got fired
No comparison.
Bro this a dumb example
@@A_Class216 how?
@@demetriusmorrison1301 how? He built that team took them to playoffs
Cavs and Bickerstaff was the 6th longest tenured coaching tenure in the league. These guys need to do more research
Dan Gilbert is a terrible person. It's that simple.
Period
Personally I thought garland did well because we got to see the potential of Mobley by him being more of a playmaker.
I think it's a big mistake to fire the coach before you sign Donovan or garland if he or both had a problem with the coach. Sign whoever is coming back first then fire him .
To me you definitely need to improve the bench. You need someone besides levert who can score and be a facilitator.
Jarret Allen Is a great piece. But with mobley garland and Mitchell his contract would limit the bench potential talent. I think you trade him to get a cheaper center with a similar skill set and add another position or two pieces. Possibly you could trade him for 2-3 players no picks either way.
Big question is what kind of style are you looking for with the next coach and are you only invested in Mitchell and garland as scores or do you want to see what mobley can do as well.
You don't want a talent like him getting D. Payton out the offense
They have a severe issue with the make up of the team. I think the GM should have been the one to go. At the end of 2021 they had Garland, Allen, Markanen, and Colin Sexton and all their draft choices. Imagine how different things would have been if they drafted Scotty Barnes instead of Mobley, and not traded for Mitchell. They would have had a front line of Markanen, Allen, and Barnes with Garland as PG, Sexton as heat check sixth man, and they could have used the draft and free agency to find a shooting guard. So they would have had that line up instead of two mismatched bigs and two small mismatched ball-dominant guards. Mobley looks like a good starter with no outside shot, nothing more, and the guards can't get out of each other's way without Garland severely underachieving, because he's not a spot up shooter. Bad chemistry and probably two of those players have to go to fix the spacing and defensive issues.
The Cavaliers were good before Donovan got there. He's in the way of Cleveland being great. Bradley Beal got the way of the Sun's greatness.
Bron and Bronny are going home
Coming home to retire. I thought LeBron liked JB for some reason
Good. Bye 👋🏿
They clearly don't watch the Cavs. It is ridiculous to listen to these uniformed opinions. Why did they fire Bikerstaff? Look at his career record before the all-star break and after. That is why they fired Bikerstaff.
I smell a trade for Mitchell! Lebron to Cavs, Mitchell to LA!
Lose the lockeroom lose your job
I have seen coaches cost their teams playoff games by not doing the obvious, they all still have jobs. Meanwhile the coaches who get their teams to outperform expectations get fired. No wonder certain organizations are bad for 20 years 😂
All of a sudden, every coach is bad.
Maybe it's the players.
As a Cavs fan this was not “out of nowhere”. Every Cavs fan knew Jb was gone, he has been terrible in the playoffs and does many things bad. Things as simple as calling timeouts/ substitutions. Not to mention holding player accountable and getting the best out of them and lastly his play calling was TERRIBLE. So many times with the game on the line after a timeout his play was Garland driving to the rim and 90% of the time getting blocked… even tho he had 2 7 footers in the game (Mobley and Allen). He was good for the rebuild era but now we need an experienced guy who’s gonna help get our guys to the next level.
They don’t have enough talent
Besides LeBron, the Cavs are truly an embarrassment of a franchise. How TF you fire a coach who won 51 and 48 games with a series win this year? They're not as talented as the top 4 teams in the East and to be competitive with those teams is ridiculous. Yet, somehow, someway, Glenn Rivers has a job still...
You clearly don't watch Cavs basketball with that take. JB is probably the worst play caller in the league (the only 2 plays he runs are ISO, and pick and roll), has failed to develope Garland and Mobley, and continuously fails to take advantage of easy mismatches on offense
Better than Milwaukee, at least they did not hire Doc mid-season. 😂
Lakers need to grab him fast
no way
ASAP
Here we go again lakers always try to get everyone
Lebron wont respect bickerstaff.
@@216betto how would you know? Your feels told you cupcake?
Do research. J.B been there for 5 yrs the whole team was upset with stuff. His style ran its course time for the next step. Garland broke his Jaw but its more on the coaching . appreciate J.B but if the players dont love the coach or believe this happens. Having a guy that knows one sport and not all sports when all u got to do is research makes no sense
Will get him instead of JJ to coach the LAKERS
Mitchell, who hasn't signed a new contract yet, got a good coach fired. Go figure. Who does he think he is, LeBron? I guess we know who runs that team.
Keyshawn is always taking cheap shots at Paul like the NBA is not as structured as the NFL with the coaches always being fired. What's wrong with you guys. I don't know how Paul holds it in and doesn't go ham on this clown. There's been plenty of coaches in the NFL fired after 1 or 2 years. Paul is killing this dude on topic debates and he keeps trying to bait him into an internet debate where it becomes an Stephen A yelling match
This is nothing new. JB should have been fired last year already. Im GLAD he's out as my cavs coach 🙏
pierce is like vigilante. On KGs show he is... Paul Pierce. On the undisputed he is Mr. Pierce.
Redick/ Sam Cassell are the coaches of the Lakers, they are more knowledgeable of the game than any of the current candidates that have been considered. They are your coach that will take the team far into the future as well as a minimal contract initially. They will manage the locker room along with input from veterans LeBron and AD; they are players coachs and understands the needs of there coaching staff. We need two real bigs, Valanciunas/Drumond/Dwight ( ie 2020 chip) along side AD, we need a six man, Dramond/Bobby Portes etc. We need a two way guard to manage Jamall Murry and Anthony Edwards.... Demar/Donavan/Caruso/Keli Ubrea/Marcus Smart/JaMonte Murray/Brogden/Bones Hyland . We have the assets, the picks and the money to make this happen. Doc Rivers, Ty Lou, , Chauncey Billups had no direct coaching experience other than one of many assistants.
Paul pierce is a welcome addition ❤
Ham is already on the second interview.
He shouldve play Emoni Bates
RACHEL NICHOLS IS THE BIGGEST LAKER HATER
Lebron isn’t going back. He’s building a $100 million facility in LA.
What facility?
Let the players be the coaches. Problem solved
It's mess up the Cavs fired they're coach maybe the Lakers should hire him he did an ok job in Cleveland but injuries got him fired plus Darius Garland & Donovan Mitchell won't work so trade Darius Garland, Craig Porter Jr, Emoni Bates, Carvis Levert, Tristan Thompson, Marcus Morris Sr, Pete Nance, Isaiah Mobley, Damian Jones, to the Nuggets for Reggie Jackson, Collin Gillespie, KCP, Hunter Tyson, Justin Holiday, Michael Porter Jr, Braxton Key, Vlatko Cancar, Jay Huff,
Anyone defending the coach did not watch cavs games
This was a move to get JJ Reddick if the Lakers choose someone else..that would make LeBron think about opting out .cavs have the #20 pick,they can use that to take bronny as a further incentive..the pelicans can hurt the Lakers by opting to take this years #17 pick and ending their chances to get bronny
Bad move for Cleveland any bad coaches get fired like with losing records this season
Exactly key is a good man stop the hate people
U Can’t blame LeBron for this coach getting fired lol
You may never know, LeBron is pretty big in Cleveland, plus he was at the game 😂
Unless Lebron said he's coming home only if such n such coaches me....
Lebron going back home Dan Gilbert setting everything up for his return
"THE TRUTH" is telling the truth....
Great show
The curse of the Jersey burning 😡😡💰💰
As long wat decent coach is available on the market
Who in tf would want to tryout for the Cleveland Cavaliers Head Coach job, where let's be honest, the Cavaliers are not NBA Championship contenders with Donovan Mitchell, and has to pretty much kiss his a$$$ walking through the door and will already be in the hot seat, with a target on his back???
I don't care who they hire as new coach the Cavs are a poorly constructed team with some talented players but no culture. Get Spida out of there he thought he was going to Knicks when trade to Cavs went down and 2 years later he still hasn't gotten over it. He sees how Brunson is embraced in NY...the opportunities NY offer off the court.
I mean it sure seems like it’s the best time to do a reset since Cavs lucked into the top pick and this current roster just seems off chemistry wise. Don’t gotta go full rebuild but trade Spida and get more younger depth/assets.
Sexton is far better than Garland. The injury of Sexton made him have that max contract .
Let me guess, it's LeBron's fault?
reason? because COACH BRON WILL RETURN with STACK ROSTER
Man, these guys are ignorant on this topic. No specificity whatsoever.
paul pierce doesnt seem present lately
Wym?
JB Bickerstaff firing made 0 sense, Cavs had Mitchell and Allen being out for a lot of the playoffs and they still made progress from last season (first 1st round series win since LeBron), only losing to the 64-win Celtics who a lot of people think will win the title
Very sad! Players should not have that kind of power…Pray it’s not so!
Remember when that loser JB pulled his starters in the last game of the season to tank to the fourth seed? Yeah, nobody wants to play for somebody with a loser mentality like that. No surprise here...
first off...alot of you all dont watch the Cavs. JB got outcoached alot in games and the talent succeeded despite him. JB also refused to use his bench and often ran down his starters--of which injuries occurred due to it. He would often have better lineups and winning percentages when he used his starters ALONG WITH HIS BENCH.But once back to full strength, JB would rely too much on the starters again and lose more games. He is an idiot when it comes to common sense basketball 101. He coaches like its the 1980 and is not in tune with plays and schemes for todays NBA
Reddick, Bron, Bronny coming
