#Cleveland denied the #Blazers request.
Fitch, who has been the only coach the #Cavaliers have had, has been publicly feuding with the #Cleveland owner for the past few months to get out of his contract. It is rumored his has been trying to get out of his contract in order to talk with the @Lakers about their head coaching vacancy, though Fitch has said, "If there was an expansion team in Nome, Alaska and (Cavaliers owner) #NickMileti wouldn't be involved, I'd go today."

I am saddened to learn that Bill Fitch has passed away. He signed my card twice, a index card, and left a nice note for me in May 2020. I will be forever thankful for his kindness! #RIP #YouWillBeMissed #BillFitch
#脱将Fitch逝く⑧:まあ彼の存在が私の記憶から脱することなど決してないことだが。最初はただただ“憎き相手”だったのに、こんなにもリスペクトさせてくれたことには本当に感謝しかない。ありがとう、そして長きに渡りお疲れ様でした。脱将 #BillFitch よ、安らかに。合掌：終
#脱将Fitch逝く⑦:彼を評する際、建や築の字も考えたが、ただならぬどん底の状態からチームを幾度も見事に“脱”出させたこと、そしてBOSとHOUの両方を指揮してファイナルで戦うという常軌を著しく逸“脱”したその功績を最大限に表現したく、脱将と命名した。 ⑧へ
#脱将Fitch逝く①:76年Miracle of Richfield にて愛するBulletsを退けた敵将。しかし悔し涙とは何たるかを教えてくれた、という点では #BillFitch は見方を変えれば恩人でもある。そして当初の憎き敵将も、時間とともにリスペクトせずにはいられない名将へと変貌を遂げた。 ②へ
@frostybias Great #BillFitch trivia question - where did he go to college ? I never even heard of this place. Btw, Bill’s next birthday will be his 90th! Wow!!!! @HonestLarry1 get ready to party!
Il decano degli allenatori #BillFitch, durante gli anni trascorsi nella #NCAA, era solito dire:
"Giocare una partita contro #LewAlcindor, è come andare ad un combattimento di coltelli e scoprire che il proprio manico è senza lama!" 🔝😎
Con el triunfo de ayer de @LAClippers, su director técnico, @DocRivers, superó a #RedAuerbach en la lista de más triunfos en la historia de @NBALatam.
Rivers ahora está solo en el 11mo puesto, con 939 victorias, a nada más que cinco de #BillFitch, el décimo.

I'd love to know where everyone's head is at now that you've had some time to clear your thoughts on #BillOBrien, #Romeo and the #Texans?
What should be ownerships approach now?
I think the #Texans are at that #BillFitch moment when the #Rockets moved on for #Rudy.
I'm all ears
@frostybias Obscure #Celtics fact: I once met #billfitch in #rhodeisland & he let me wear his 1981 world championship ring. Yes, I gave it back to him. #claimtofame
Sharp insights on the aesthetics of wine from @leviopenswine and #billfitch of #vinegarhillhouse : Burgundy geeks vs Nebbiolo geeks = Ingres vs Delacroix all over again, Classicism vs Romanticism https://t.co/Ln03LhWg6Q
