Is Kenny Atkinson on the hot seat after the Cleveland Cavaliers horrific start to the season?
The seat for Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson “is starting to get a little warm,” according to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst.
In the newest episode of his Hoop Collective podcast, the NBA insider reported a coaching change isn’t yet imminent, though.
“My assessment in speaking to folks around the team is that they believe the best approach right now is to try to work through this, get healthy, and find ways to improve and get through it,” he said starting at the 20:32 mark. “I don’t think radical change or roster change is coming.” | https://bleacherreport.com/articles/25336329-nba-hot-seat-rumors-cavs-hc-kenny-atkinson-amid-firing-questions-losing-streak

Mobley was given a max based on potential… he never showed he was a max player and is looking like he's not one.
Why are the cavs better than the bulls ? Can someone explain that to me? The Bulls are healthy and have really good players. Cavs losing to the healthy Bulls should not be the measuring stick. It's lazy and ignorant
JA was on minutes restriction 1st game against bulls.. pointing to his lack of rebounding is also dumb.
KYRIE WAS INJURY PRONE UNTIL HE WON. Suddenly, after that, we never cared if he was injured. He wasn't injury prone because he had a ring. Cavs only have to be healthy once..
This team is just a bunch of fragile liberals – enough said – this team should be the #1 team in the east hands down..!!! Keep Donovan/Mobley and everyone else is available
Trade Dean wade
Bull you're right.. in my opinion, the Cavs players are a bunch of spoiled brats. I used to love this young roster. But now I cant stand the 5 foot nothing in DG. Allen is the softest big man in history. Mobley doesnt have the killer instinct. And the bench is trash with the exception of a player or two. Its sad
Cavs need a. A dog of a coach to light a fire Mike Malone b. PG upgrade C. Trey Murphy, Dillon Brookes type player.
There's been coaches that have been fired 2 years after winning a Championship. NBA is a joke when it comes to firing coaches.
Playoffs have shown what this team is all about but they keep running it back. Poor drafting going all the back to Grant and now Koby is trying to save face. There's a lot of young talent emerging throughout the NBA and the Cavs are getting passed by. It's over Johnny!
Donovan Mitchell in Utah going out in a second round Donovan Mitchell in Cleveland going out in the second round that seems like the common denominator
These guys don't know basketball idk why yall listening 😂
1:03 2009 Cavs had the most wins in franchise history
Hunter, Allen, Garland not living up to their contracts. That’s it.
Hunter was a Knick killer. I thought he was gonna put yall over the top
The problem is the attitude of a lot of guys on the team. They don’t play like they’re hungry, like they care about winning. They don’t have the IT factor.
Johnnie Bryant will be head coach
CAVS GM KOBY ALTMAN'S GOOFY A** SHOULD BE ON THE HOT SEAT. HE IS THE IDIOT WE KEPT TELLING TO BREAK UP THE THIS SOFT A** CORE 4 AWHILE AGO BUT DIDNT WANT TO LISTEN
You all are obsessed that Stefanski has got to go, when in reality, this is the coach that needs to go!
This is the Ultimate Cleveland Try to get the Coaches fired show. Who are these people. The fans deserve a better sports show.
Last year the regular season didnt matter but this year it does…
Not Atkinson, FIRE KOBY ALTMAN. He is responsible for so much cap given to the short guards, one who is unavailable half of the time.
Blow it up.
1st year as a coach doesn't count whether winning or losing. You see what a coach is really about during their 2nd 3rd year bc the 1st year still has the foundation of the previous coach while the new coach is building his foundation for the team fyi
I feel like trading Darius Garland and Jarrett Allen I feel like is more possible than Jason thinks, you would wouldn't get much for them, but you could get role players that are very physical, and maybe some good players. You would have to revamp the whole roster which isn't new for koby, and it would require the perfect situation.
This team isn’t it. They care about friendships than championships, sad to say but true. You got blow it up this year if you don’t, I could Adam silver stepping in and getting the Cavs as far away from the NBA as possible and putting in a more competitive team that will care
