I'm all for getting K. Love getting going early but when the other team is tilting his way, we've got to pass out of it.

We might have to go back to a TT & Love front court. We just can't get an offensive rebound.

Cavs need to serious consider attaching that Miami 2nd to Calderon or Rose and picking up Liggins. They just don't have a guy on the roster who can cool off a hot player once they get going now.

Based on their body language, something is going on with LBJ & Love and it's not good.

Things started going downhill the second we moved him past season. Lue is terrible defensive coach and doesn’t care about that end at all.

I think Lue sacrifices too much of the game to pace and spacing but personnel/age are issues as well.
