How did we lose? An argument for no big changes.

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I certainly don't have an "ANSWER" but what i feel is that Lue mollycoddled the bench, and never gave them his trust. Given the weakness of ECF, hard to see big fear. But that lack of trust & chemistry really showed when starters left floor.

Additionally, expecting role players to hit big 3s on the road in the playoffs is hard task. Note that Iggy & Livingston do most of their damage inside the arc. Cavs welcomed Iggy 3s. But everyone on Cavs bench is jump shooter who notoriously have more issues on road. Probably behoove Cavs to add.... a playmaker who can get to the basket and create own shot. But you probably already knew that. LeBron did.
I wish Cavs could make a move for Eric Bledsoe. I've been saying that on here and Twitter since we lost, but it makes too much sense to me, he'd be the perfect sixth man.

Bledsoe is a lead facilitator, creative driver, good defender, and a phenomenal rebounder for a point guard. His numbers are not reflective of his talent the past few years because he is playing as the #1/#2 option in Phoenix. I think, in a sixth man role, we could see a guy who would solve many of the Cavs' bench problems.
