THat's like saying Saunders could have a fit because Joe didn't give him all jumpshooters once he was hired. It just seems like all these assumptions and attributes only get applied to LB, but get explained as though every coach has some sort of input.
They guy is the coach, he has no power above that. Plain and simple. No GM is terrified that their coach doesn't have the guys he wants...they'll just fire him and hire the coach that will coach the guys he has.
