Old man Beilein curiously used it to describe the play of his players in a film room and it almost cost him his job. He has two "whiteys" in his starting lineup but the others took issue with it anyway.

I guess it is when you have to have it explained to you by assistants hours after the fact

It can be but I believe with this guy it was just a slip. Cavs are terrible with very little reason to be optimistic with their current roster. If it allows Gilbert to void his deal, maybe coach gets chopped. Otherwise, this is a non-story imo.

I'm sure garland and sexton took offense, since they're younger but overall yeah, i can see that. He could have said kids, noobs, amateurs but went with thugs? Surprised cavs came out and said his job is safe lol.

Considering stepping down now, just half way through his first season. Thugs rule?

Sexton is the problem. Trade him for a 2nd rounder or cut him. Cancer.

Cavs have made some awful draft picks over the years. Garland might be another one -looks an awful lot like Devonte Graham whom the Hornets snagged in the 2nd round.
