If we're starting from scratch, then I'd bring in Ettore Messina. Depending on the style he wants to play, that could trigger a few years or more of rebuilding."Stay steamy"

Pop could not coach this roster past LeBron. Pop wasn't able to coach the Spurs roster with hall of fame players past LeBron on a few occasions. It sucks, but I feel like we have to wait out the age of LeBron before there is any hope of advancing.

So I don't think it's fair to assume Pop or another elite coach wouldn't be able to lead us farther.

A bit off topic thought....but it isn't all about Lebron being the terrific player he is. Ownership of the Cavs have invested heavily in the effort and is paying a large tax penalty (?). If Gilbert decides to pull back that team is not the same. There are also non-core good players on the team playing at under market rates.
The intention with the above is not to not upgrade the coach, change the style nor the personnel. It is clear the NBA has changed and the Raptors are woeful in both it's O & D re the 3pt. skill.
