NBA Rumors: Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert is ‘enraged’ team missed playoffs
By Josh Hill
The NBA Playoffs are right around the corner but the Cleveland Cavaliers will not be there to participate. Despite making bold trade and giving up a first round pick to acquire Luol Deng, the Cavaliers are on the outside looking in and that has reportedly drawn the violent ire of owner Dan Gilbert.
Understandably, Gilbert is not happy that his team missed the postseason as Sam Amico from FOXSports reports that Gilbert is ‘enraged’ that the team is out of the running. That being said, Amico passes along word that Gilbert isn’t going to let his emotions get the best of him and force him to start dropping the guillotine left and right.
"How displeased is Cavs owner Dan Gilbert his team missed the playoffs? Well, “enraged” is the word most used to describe Gilbert’s overall feelings. “Inside the organization is like a time-bomb waiting to go off,” said one."
It’s believed that Mike Brown could and likely will be fired this offseason and more inside the organization could follow him out the door. A major trade has been teased as well which means it’s only a matter of time before the Cavaliers make some huge changes.
