GM says no problem with Blatt

Published on January 6, 2015 by Scott Shirley   ·   No Comments

With the Cleveland Cavaliers getting off to a rocky start naturally the pressure will come on the coach. There have been rumors of riffs between Coach Blatt and management. Saying that GM David Griffin says that is not the case.

“This narrative of our coaching situation is truly ridiculous,” Griffin told reporters. “It’s a non-story, it’s a non-narrative. Coach Blatt is our coach, he’s going to remain our coach. Do not write that as a vote of confidence. He never needed one. It was never a question. So don’t write it that way.”

“It’s such a ridiculous assertion. It seemed giving life to it is what would happen by talking about it so I didn’t want to do that,” Griffin said. “At the same time it’s just time for everybody to get on with it. We have a chance to galvanize ourselves and grow and move in a positive direction so I want to make sure we’re doing that in a fresh environment.”
