Miami still isn't shit. I bet you they don't make the finals next year. Not money of course, but a Mountain Dew. How about that.

I think the coach's reaction is less sub-par at best. You always show your true colors when your feelings get hurt and you get upset when something doesn't go your way. Why does Gilbert wait until Lebron leaves the team before he tries to gather some morality and call Lebron out on his inadequacies? Saying it's about time someone ousts Jamers? If he had such good character, why didn't he say something while Lebron was still a Cav? What a joke. "I'm taking my ball and I'm going home!" Later, QD.
Dan Gilbert is the owner and not the coach. As far as his reaction and why he didn't call him out before, he's the owner and it's bad for business to trash your own players. He probably did it quietly within the organization, but never publicly. I think he has a right to be that upset because HE personally did everything to make Lebron happy while he was in Cleveland. You give the guy exactly what he wants and he still leaves you, that's kind of messed up. His crew got to travel with the team and got seats right behind the Cavs bench for away games. Lebron didn't pay for any of that. Not only that, but Lebron always talked about loving the city of Cleveland and then he leaves for Miami which is almost a complete 180 from the kind of city Cleveland is.
