As a Cavalier fan, it was real hard watching some of his coaching decisions. There were some playoff game moments, where the opposing team was putting on a clinic, and I found myself yelling at the TV for him to just call a timeout, give our guys a set offensive play to run so they can find their rhythm, and he just never did. Some of his line-ups were similarly mystifying. But overall, he was a good coach for our rebuilding team, that turned them into a fantastic defensive unit. We might have been a bit stale on the offensive end, but with Mitchell and Allen out for those Celtics games, we were never getting out of the second round.

I just hope that we can keep both Mitchell and Allen for next year, because our core group of guys are really special, and barring injuries, we'll be back in the second round next year, hopefully coming out on top.
