I'm blaming Eric Spolstra for the Heat losing this series. - Message Board Basketball Forum

He obviously didn't know what he was doing out there. Where was he on those missed rebounding opportunities? Why didn't he complete basic block out training?

He is a bad coach. Look at game 5 mates, he only coached Wade good, but LeBron? He coached him to only 8 points, 8 points, shame on the coach.

His coaching ability changed after the Eastern Conference Finals. It had to, there's no other reason to explain the 4th quarter failing for the Miami Heat.

Don't blame LeBron, blame the coach. We have done this for 8 years America, why on earth would we change now? We have to stay consistant.

I agree with this a bit. I think he shouldn't have played Eddie House as much as he did, and he should have let Joel Anthony guard Dirk way more...

He did terrible with the subs. And also why did he never play James Jones? Decent defender, plus best 3 point shooter for the Heat.

I knew it was over tonight when he made the move to start chalmers. Chalmers what the only pg who was able to somewhat say with Barea. He wore down as the game went on and Barea riped the heat a new one. Spo is a fuking moron. Lucky for heat fans he's about to be an unemployed moron.

Agreed. He just couldn't coach those players to defend better.

Yeah I forgot to mention. Why did he start Chalmers? Chalmers was good at being the 2nd string PG. Spolstra will probably get fired.

SPO is a really good coach.. The only thing he should have done was play a bit more zone against the Mavs when Dirk went to the bench.. And in the fourth quarter when the Mavs would kill the HEAT he should have taken bron out..

I believe most are blaming LeBron for not showing up for the moment.

Not Spo.

But we know your agenda.

The only mistake Coach Spoelstra made was not benching LeBron in the 4th quarter

Spoelstra has to do a better job of motivating LeBron in the 4th quarter. There's no excuse for a coach not to motivate a player like LeBron James.

If only Lebron could clone himself.....

wait..then the Heat would score about 8 points in the 4th quarters...

man was bieng sarcastic....it aint the coaches fualt for 2 top 5 players and 3 allstars choking

10% Spo
90% LeBron

If LeBron showed any heart in the 2nd half maybe they would have won two games in Dallas.

TheAnchorman · 06-13-2011, 01:02 AM

Lol OP clearly taking shots at Lebron and basically showing us the stupidity of always 'blaming' the coach.

Keep Spo, I think it would be a great statement to keep him with the Heat, not to mention he's Rileys guy. Do you honestly want a completely new coach to come in and try and coach the Big 3 even though Spo's done it for an entire year?

If Spoelstra has to motivate a player of LeBron James' caliber on the biggest stage in the NBA, then LeBron doesn't deserve to be a champion
