He didn’t misspeak. Come on. At best, he said slug but slurred/didn’t annunciate and everyone thought he said thug. There is no way you say thug when you mean slow and lethargic/slug. 

Why would he say "nice to see you aren't still playing like a bunch of thugs" when a) he supposedly meant slow & lethargic and b) unless I've missed something, the 2019/2020 version is as soft as the previous groups so thugs would be stupid to say.

Why would you misspeak a word that doesn’t even start remotely the same? The two words aren’t really interchangeable in speech. I can’t really beleive someone would mix them up. Who calls someone a slug, anyway lol?

Exactly and the coach is 66 so it's not a stretch.

I’m not arguing what he said wasn’t bad. I’m saying he is lying to cover it up.

And I asked a couple of my kids who are in their late 20’s if they ever heard someone be called a slug. 
 

Answer: no

You're a little older than me but we're cut from the same cloth. I probably use the term slug 3-4x's per week. lol

Heard on my drive in that Sexton apparently said that Beilein calls them slugs all of the time.

Whether he did or not, who gives a fuck?  For anyone who played sports beyond middle school, are we actually going to pretend this is the worst thing a coach has ever said? Lmao.

I don’t care. Pretty dumb to lie about it though. I don’t think most people cared, but a lot of us figured in 2020 that would be what got him canned.

Thought I was watching 7th graders in the fourth quarter vs the Bulls – ten turnovers, almost in a row ……..to blow a 15 point lead.

In hindsight, COA was spot on...Sexton is garbage

He can score, but not sure he can do it on a winning team. And he cannot play PG with that assist rate. Thankfully, Garland is showing tremendous vision coupled with bursts of scoring as of late and looks to be a building block at the 1.

If they can somehow swing a deal for Love/Tristan/Sexton plus this years pick three may have a team to get excited about moving forward.

He can score but his efficiency is brutal. I agree that Garland is solid. Love is an albatross and not sure what, if any, value he has. I've heard teams want a draft pick with Love just to take him off the Cavs hands.
