Beilein scares the crap out of me.
He kept calling the Cavs a Program instead of franchise in his interview today.
Thats pretty common at least in the NFL I've heard coaches call teams programs before. Not really sure why that's worrisome.

he blabbers a bit in his interviews
Sometimes I struggle to understand what he’s talking aboutHe's a rambling old man, but that is good because he let's stuff slip all the time

The stuff he says...
I'm worried about his style of coaching around NBA players. The smoke signals are there for this to be a Blatt style breakdown.
Edit: To be clear, I think Beilein is maybe the best X's and O's coach they have had since Fratello or Wilkins but he's got a very stickler attitude to him that won't be popular around ego driven NBA players. (Even if they need to hear it.)
I really have no idea what to expect. I'm terrified that he's only a system coach, that the players are giving lip service, that he's not read for the NBA, etc. At the same time, I'm excited to see how he helps our players develop and I love how Garland has looked during the preseason.
Never liked the hire. I think it was a mistake and won't end well. But I'm about as far from an expert on such things as you can get. Hope I'm wrong and he does well but I'm not sure it matters all that much. This rebuild is going to take time - almost certainly more time than a 66, going on 67, year-old head coach has left in the tank. Hell, he's 25 days older than me!
Beilein is folksy, and is a teacher first and foremost, so he will answer any question you ask him.
He reminds me of a coach version of Paul Pierce...Beilein reminds me of a drill sergeant.
