John-Blair Bickerstaff: Currently The 6th Longest Tenured Head Coach

[Kouki]

You know when the media starts posting things that could easily be interpreted as sarcastic and making fun of coach...there's some fire coming from all the smoke.

Yes and I tend to agree with the ones I like, and Jordan Zirm is one of them...

I feel like this is something they shouldve done after Game 1. And again after Game 2. And Game 3. It should not take 4 Games to look at the tape and see hmm what could we have done differnetly or better.

Should have done this last season.

are the odds better that JBB shrinks the rotation to 6-7 players (let's say: no Niang), keeps exactly the same rotation, or expands the rotation to 9-10 players (Morris? Merrill? Thompson) to see if something else clicks?

i feel like the odds here are 5%, 90%, 5% but wish it felt more likely to see some extra role players at least in home games where they might perform ok.

He's probably going to get rid of the 3.2 minutes Merrill plays and add an additional 10 minutes from Allen then give 13.2 minutes to Okoro. And move some of Garland's minutes to Niang.

Found the video where he basically says adjustments aren’t really a thing and it’s all about whoever executes better lol. If I’m a player, how can I trust this guy as the coach of the team?

His players are talking about adjustments ,so they expect him to make some. News flash , somebody needs to correct him about thinking and saying that.

Don't forget Porter..he has more confidence than Garland right now and that could be huge..Has JBB been asked why he isn't using these guys? I know you may not know but some beatwriter/reporter needs to question him a lot harder.

Porter has been scratched Games 1-5 due to injury.

JB has to know that he is getting fired. There is a 99.9% chance in my estimation that he is not surviving this offseason. He literally can say or do whatever he wants to try and win this postseason. He can hurt feelings. He can bench stars. He can blast the team in the media. He can take absurd gambles. He can throw out lineups he has never tried.

There is quite literally nothing to lose. Nothing. The only chance in hell he has at hanging around is putting Boston out next round.

Despite having this freedom, he has still managed to be atrocious and make no discernible adjustments over 4 games to try and get this team moving in the right direction. At least find new and exciting ways to fail. Go down swinging.

will the cavs top this after the series?

Nepotism hires don't think that way

I don’t know who we should hire but for the love of god no more internal hires. This team seemed to love to hire from within and it doesn’t work. The best man for the job doesn’t just so happen to be on the staff already.

Isn’t the charge coach pretty good?

Yes I found that out,,,but if he was healthy would he play Porter?
