Blatt got fired for freezing up on the sidelines, calling plays for players not on the floor, and the infamous attempt to call a timeout he didn’t have in a close playoff game. Lebron emasculated him, but it was justified. Blatt’s game plans were often very good, but he couldn’t keep up with his opponent for 48 minutes and could not draw up a 4th q inbounds pass to save his life. In case it needs to be pointed out, Blatt has not gotten back to the NBA. He probably never will. In NBA circles his rep is trash.
Beilein has a chance to be a good hire if he develops the young guys as a venerable instructor, but I can’t quite shake the feeling that he took the Cavs job to boost his retirement account.
