To all those screaming for JB’s head earlier this season
February 11, 2024
We’re tied for third in the league!
I agree, Go Cavs!

To be fair, those who actually had an explanation for wanting to move on from JB had valid points. JB just improved and matched those expectations we rational JB haters had. Now, he’s turned us into big supporters. We still need to see a playoff series win though.
Tldr; I agree go Cavs
Hi! It’s me. I’m the problem it’s me.
Seriously though, I’m happily eating my words. One of my complaints about JB was his refusal to use the bench. The injuries have seemed to forced his hand in this respect. Still have a couple questions about him going forward as a playoff contender coach vs a development coach but those will be answered soon.
Anyone screaming for JB to be sacked is happy now (including me) and I’d be very happy to be proved wrong in the playoffs. We’ll see what happens
My problem with him was: 1. Lack of adjusting for different looks the other teams throw at us
2 (This works with 1): The lack of using the bench. It took injuries for him to figure out how to game plan with different lineups.
I’m still saying we lucked into this with injuries forcing JB’s hand. But I’ll take a lucky JB if it means ripping off wins like this for sure
I’m still not sold on JB. He was literally forced to actually do some coaching and lucked out and found an answer while DG and Mobley were out. His stubbornness worries me, especially come Playoff time.
well according to Windhorst, he was coaching for his job when we played detroit in december. so any criticism we as fans had was also shared at the time by his bosses.
I don’t know how encouraged I should be by “An NBA coach finally started doing things people sitting on the couch were begging him to do and the team instantly became really freaking good” but I’m certainly enjoying the ride.
Too all those who don’t know that the front office forced JB’s hand
No one cares about the regular season record. We won’t be playing teams like the Raptors, Nets, Grizzlies, Spurs, Pistons, and Wizards.
