The entire organization from top to bottom should be on the clock and questioned from now on. I've been all in on the rebuild and patiently building through the draft but it's past time to actually attempt to put together a roster with legitimate NBA talent rather than half filled with no talent stiffs. Give some support to your young core talent. I still believe it can be done without harming cap space and flexibility.
Have no problem questioning Scott and don't feel he's the greatest coach but it can't all be put on him. Does say something when at most I might only have interest in bringing back 6 or 7 players on the current roster (some of those I don't even feel overly strong about) and feel the other 8 or 9 would never be missed if they didn't return.
I also wasn't as thrilled as some others might be with the Dan Gilbert defensive first tweet. I'd prefer to be a team that's strong at both ends and not overly focused on one area. Cavs need to learn from every mistake from the past.
These two things don't go together. If you are patient, then you wouldn't say its past time to put together a better roster. Season one was a throw-away, seasons 2 was last year, considering this is season 3, and you're saying its past time, I assume you wanted them to make a move prior to this season? That's not very patient.
Anyway, I think anyone with a brain can guess where one of the complaints is coming from: Speights. It's who he is. He's a trouble maker who likes to stir shit up when he isn't getting 30 minutes a game.
It would be total bullshit and a sign of a poor organization to fire a coach whom you've given no chance to succeed. YOu have the GM openly saying he'd like to land in the lottery again and he puts together a roster that is designed as such, and you then lay that on the coach? If they fired Scott after this season my opinion of Gilbert would go from very high to very low, and my hopes of a turn-around would be slim. You can't keep changing coaches every few years w/o actually giving them a fair shot. And this roster is not giving a coach, any coach, a fair shot.
