John Beilein failed in Cleveland because he treated NBA players like college kids
I think he thought that what his methods were in college. Were going to work at the NBA level and it just wasn't even close... one person described him as a dictator and that's not the way you talk to NBA players... once that Thug comment was made and he went back and said nah, I'm at slugs.

I kind of need to sit down.
