The Official "Bump" thread

[Stifle Tower]

So the shove of Blatt by LBJ is being spun as a "smart" play to keep the coach from getting a "T." Personally, I think it was a huge show of disrespect from LBJ. And the look on Blatt's face tells me he wasn't all that thrilled.

So tell me, Jazz fans...smart play by LBJ or stepping over the line?

Personally, I think when you are protecting a coach or another player from a technical, you get in front of him, talk him down while you're walking him away from the ref. This was a push from behind and to the side when Blatt had barely started to argue. Blatt is coaching his last days in Cleveland,

Even at the end of that Blatt was still talking to the ref. I honestly don't think LeBron would push his coach out of the way just to push his coach out of the way. He didn't take the best approach, which as you said, would have been to get in front of Blatt, but I don't think he was being disrespectful either. That being said, it sure seems like Blatt won't make it past the All-Star break. I'm sure Tyronn Lue will take over for the balance of the season whenever the Cavs let Blatt go.

Cleveland is a hot mess. I remember saying somewhere that they should never trade for Kevin love, and getting blasted. (Not saying jazzfanz blasted me, I'm sure most of you agree Cleveland has some questionable intelligence) anyway, they suck and it is awesome to watch. Lebron seems awfully immature, trying to play and be gm.
