Exum is needed in this game playing more with KLove and TThompson. Exum playing with Love and TT gives Cavs are better chance of show casing them as Exum knows how to play a team game. In the last game Exum would have known who the hot hand was , penetrate into the paint and kicked the ball out to Love.If at the end of the game Exum is around 15/18 minutes and Cavs get thumped you have to wonder why a tall guard doesn't get minutes against a tall guard lineup of Detroit.

Cavs have been passing around a bad flu bug. Exum didn't even travel to Detroit.

TT had a game though.

Cavs showed a lot of desperation to get this win with Beilein playing his starters extended minutes, Tristan drawing up plays, and assistants clearly involved in the huddle. No slugs or thugs.
