Spoelstra's tactics were slim to none, making Carlisle look like a bloody genius. The zone defense stifled Miami EVERY SINGLE TIME. A good head coach would know how to fix this. Spo has done a brilliant job managing egos, but I think he's more of an assistant coach right now than a head coach. He can't think of quick hitting, game changing tactics on the fly.
He will learn, there's no doubt about that. But if the Heat want a HERE AND NOW solution? Time to find a seasoned coach to sit on that bench next to Spo, and whisper in his ear what he should be doing...or just take over for Spo outright.
To me, it's extreme to do anything from a coaching standpoint to the guy who got you G6 of the NBA Finals (and one of the BEST FKING FINALS I'VE EVER SEEN too). Let him learn, he'll be fine next year.
