Miami needs a coach

[mviale]

Someone needs to direct this team and slap them upside the head when necessary.  Spoelstra? Really?

I say this rarely, but on this topic -- who cares?

Miami needs a new coach? Uh, OK. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Superbar?

Miami needs a SHOOTER and a solid CENTER/REBOUNDER.

Not sure they can afford much more.  I think they have the talent, just need leadership when the game is on the line. Who leads that team?

Like LBJ or not, I thought this was pretty funny...

Miami needs LeBron to get out of the corner he hides in for fourth quarters. He needs a "just give me the damn ball attitude" not disappear.

 Why do they give LeBron chicken wings without bones?

Because he has a tendancy to choke

Spo looked pretty brilliant taking out the COY Thibs just one round prior to the Finals.

I think it was game 3 where Wade was yelling at lebron during a timeout
No doubt to me that Miami is Wade's team. I also think that public flogging/embarrassment may have been the beginnning of the end for lebron in the finals.

you mean when lebron was hitting ridiculous fadeaway 3s at >50%? His average is somewhere around 30%. Easy to coach when one of your players is shooting lights out

I actually thought Mario Chalmers played pretty well in that role.

I think they need some more guard depth off the bench, and a big badass defender in the lane.  They need someone to do for them what Tyson Chandler did for Dallas.

A coach is very good when his players perform. He is very poor when they don't.

Case in point: did Phil Jackson suddenly become a bad coach this season? The Lakers were heartless. Closer to home, Buzz was crap on March 5th and great on March 19th according to many fans. Difference? Player performance.

For a third year guy, Spo isn't bad. The whole team, and coach, needs time to grow together.
