18. LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers
I’m listing LeBron James as the head coach for the Cavaliers, because we all know who the real coach of the team is. I’m convinced Dan Gilbert could have hired Yi Jianlian, and the Cavs would have won the same number of games. When I watch a Cavs game, I imagine Blatt sitting on the sideline, playing with a coloring book (same goes for Brendan Haywood despite his pivotal role on the team).
Honestly, has anyone actually seen anyone on the Cavs listen to David Blatt during a timeout? However, I feel obligated to rank James/Blatt here, because despite the Cavs apparent lack of respect for their coach, they still made the NBA Finals.
