Cleveland Cavaliers head coach John Beilein apologized Wednesday evening for calling his players "thugs" when he meant to say "slugs"....really?! He told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski that he’s already reached out to several of his players to apologize.
quote:
“I didn’t realize that I had said the word ‘thugs,’ but my staff told me later I did and so I must have said it,” Beilein told ESPN. “I meant to say slugs, as in slow moving. We weren’t playing hard before, and now we were playing harder. I meant it as a compliment. That’s what I was trying to say. I’ve already talked to eight of my players tonight, and they are telling me that they understand.”
