That was a questionable call on that rebound. If they're gonna call that, what about Green pushing Young when Young is jumping for the rebound on the previous possession?

I'm giving some credit for Bogdanovic too. He hasn't backed down from LeBron just as much as Lance hasn't.

I understand getting Dipo some rest, but with LeBron off the court, I think he should be in. Need to close out this quarter well.

Put Dipo back in now. He's the only one attacking the rim...and with LeBron on the bench, NOW is the time to make a push.

To think I was giving him credit also for the three guard lineup they had earlier this game that went on a mini run. I just don't understand not putting in Dipo (or even Collison, who was doing a solid job getting to his spots) when LeBron was on the bench. They kept settling for jumpers when they reason they're in this game was because of their ability to get in the paint and collapse the defense.

it's not just drop off, although they did both drop off. the game changed a lot since guys like melo and love first came into the league. it's faster than it was and a lot more 3 point shooting. a lot of the shots they used to take they don't get anymore.
