I saw that too. I don't really follow pro basketball, so I didn't know how they were doing. I just assumed that they weren't doing well despite Lebron being on the team, but then went to check their record and realized that they're doing really well. That's just crazy. I wonder if it was one of those situations where the coach didn't get along with some of the people in charge...the GM, the owner(s), or something?

Answer: LeBron

That is problem #1 with pro sports this day and age. The coaches are merely figureheads. It never used to be that way. Just think back to the days of Lombardi and Auerbach if you don't believe me.
