    Tyronn Lue's total inability to coach his team makes Cavs unbettable.
    The Finals is over for me now, the bets I've made will
    stand, but there is no way I would put another nickel
    on Cleveland after what I saw last night. And it's all
    about the head coach, not about the players.

    The Splash Brothers only combined for 20 points, and Green had 16,
    so how did Cleveland allow the Warrior bench to run away with the
    game ? Bad coaching by Tyronn Lue.

    Lue wore out his starters. Lue sat his talented bench except for
    garbage minutes at the end. Lue forced an injured JR Smith
    to play when his hand was blistered. How stupid can he be ?

    Consider the differences in minutes in a big Cavs road win
    (Game 5 at Toronto), with last night:

    Richard Jefferson 20 minutes, last night 12.
    Channing Frye 13, last night 7.
    Mo Williams 12, last night 2.
    Dahntay Jones 9, last night 2.
    James Jones 12, last night 2.
    Timofey Mosgov 12, last night 2.
    Shumpert went up in minutes, was overplayed.
    Dellavedova about the same.
    Those 2 minutes above were useless and would have
    been zero if the game was close at the end.

    Ok so please explain to me why you leave JR Smith in the game
    taking up 36 minutes when he scraped his hand on the floor
    in the first quarter and was obviously worthless ?

    How do you not play Channing Frye and the Joneses ?

    How do you not give Mosgov minutes when he started all games against
    the Warriors last year - and Bogut is eating up Love ?

    Why didn't Mo Williams relieve Irving at point ?
    Why did you overplay Shumpert who did nothing but
    3 points in 17 minutes when you have better players sitting down ?

    Why did you force your starters, who rallied back to take the LEAD
    in the early 4th quarter, play 40 minutes of basketball against
    a fast team whose pace is relentless and bench is eating you alive ?
    Why ? Because your starters are burnt out and JR Smith has no hand.

    Seriously how is this guy a coach ? What did he do in this game ?
    He did not manage his team. He did not manage the flow.
    He did nothing and has no idea how to utilize.

    The Cavs have no chance to win a game if they don't use the bench
    which is a very talented bench, because the Warriors and Steve Kerr
    are not a team you can burn out your starters against.

    Wasn't it K.Love who 'scraped the skin off' his hand in the opening quarter?

      Golden State is nothing on defense. Cleveland can hurt them
      in so many ways, there is nothing they can or will do about it
      except keep looking up at the scoreboard and getting more and
      more desperate as Curry and Thompson try to make hero 3's when
      they are down 10+. Over and over again.

        Game 5 against Toronto was a home game for Cleveland, and it was a 40 point blowout win. That's why their bench played more minutes.
