    Never understood the signing. This had to be done, surprised at the timing.

    Thibs is next?

    GM Bron Bron had enough him telling him what to do. He gotta remember Lebron the mayor of Cleveland.

    That GS game was the dagger. Crazy to think a coach that got his team to the finals and currently sits at 30-11 would be canned. Insane actually.
