Tyronn Lue on the Cavs’ defense improving: “I’m not confident, but we have to.”
WTF did he actually say this lmao
Yes, he actually said that. I watched it live.
My biggest criticism of Lue right now (if I had to pick just one) is the accountability factor. He seems to be making a LOT of excuses as to why we’re not winning right now...different player ailments, JR’s “training camp” comment, that quip about how we’re saving our “playoff defensive schemes” for the playoffs to not tip our hand (which Kyrie kind of refuted 10 mins later), the list goes on.I wanna see what happens come playoff time. There were a lot to of people freaking out about Lue last year, and then the playoffs came and our offense came out of their shell and murdered everyone and we weren't great but we were average enough defensively to win.
We'll see. He's certainly earned some criticism, but there's also massive overreaction going on.
I would like to see our head coach be more accountable and take more responsibility for losses, not just have an excuse ready for everything that doesn’t go right.
It’s in Lue’s best interest that he starts doing this now, because if the playoffs roll around and these same issues are happening, he will have run out of excuses by that point, and everyone will know the stuff he was saying earlier in the season was BS.
