Game 2 | Cavs (1-0) @ Bucks (1-0) | October 20, 2017 | 7:00 pm EST

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Love with 6 assists tonight, he had only one game all of last year (RS+playoffs) with 6 assists.
Mind boggling stat. Let’s you know that ball movement is fucking godly important to this team. Getting love going early is key. He feeds off of it. I’m super impressed with Kevin’s ability to let the game come to him.
 
Wade will be fine. Lue just should have manned up and made either Rose or Wade come off the bench. This whole situation is on Lue

Once IT comes back Wade and Rose isn't going to work. One of them will be very much redundant.

Our best lineup could perhaps be without any of them on the floor, but we are going to have to play them for different reasons.
 
Zizic was in street clothes and Cedi will only play when we are up by 20 with 1 minute to go it seems.

Disappointing and really shouldn't be this way. Zizic will get 0 time in blowouts aswell..
this time will be reserved for Frye.

All this can be gleaned from the first two games of the year?

On a serious note, I think the "clear the bench subs" were going to come in a little earlier but MIL went on a little mini run and cut it to like 12-13 points with 2 and a half minutes left, so we need to quell that.

Kevin Love is really versatile but I don't think it's mind boggling that a PF playing with LeBron James and Kyrie Irving only had 6 assists once last year.

If he were the featured player on a team with a PG like Bledsoe and a bunch of good wings, he could easily average 5-7APG but next to Kyrie/LeBron that was never going to happen

Yeah. Zizic was in street clothes and Lue would like Frye to get some minutes cause he isn't part of the rotation.

I just don't see how playing 1 possession on offense with 1 minute to go is going to do for Cedi, especially when it's being played with the 3rd stringers. Game was effectively out of reach, why keep Wade on the floor? let Cedi play 3 minutes with the regular rotation.. it's much more effective for his development.

We have too many players though once IT comes back. I think as the season progresses our best lineup is going to be with LEbron at PG surrounded by big athletic shooters. Lebron/JR/Korver/Crowder/TT or Green or even Love
 
No Rose tomorrow means:

-Either Calderon starts or JR starts
-Get ready for Shump on the ball - ugh
-Ante and Cedi will both be active(with IT and Rose as the inactives
-Could see John Holland come up for the game since its at home

Also, screw Orlando. Looks like they're going to lose tonight to Brooklyn
 
Welp...maybe a chance for Cedi to get some mins...

Wade should play PG and JR should start.


Hope it's not serious. Rose is very good for us so far imo. He isn't being played to his strength at all yet, but he has been good.
It wasn't even his fault that time, he had a free lane and Monroe basically hit him from behind in the air. Shit.


Good night though, fucking 5AM here and the Nets are winning for gods sakes.
 
Figured so...that's ok.. rest him anyways.. start JR ?.. or does Jose get the nod

I think JR starts and Jose comes off the bench. Or Shump perhaps, but I hope we don't rely on him to run an offense.
