Love deserves 5 to 10 postups a game

Honestly a good 5 is all he needs. It's not even whether he converts or not it's just a comfort factor. Dwight Howard is terribly average in the post yet those touches keep him engaged and active. Love getting touches inside opens up his outside game not vice versa.

Bosh had to make the adjustment to capitalizing in the midrange game in Miami, where in Toronto he was a iso face up 4. It's not too late for the Cavs to adjust. Blatt needs to adjust his offense because even games with LeBron/Kyrie both out he's had Love floating on the perimeter.

Agreed. At some point it just became awkward watching it unfold especially with the announcers bringing it up every time he was on the floor, him blatantly not getting touches.. but they'll post up jr smith or do pick and roll options with thompson, all the while klove just stands in the corner. Part of the blame is on Blatt and perhaps Lebron/player politics... but blame also falls on KLove himself. You can't have a beta male mentality. Kyrie and a prime Wade (2011) 'supposedly' didn't have a game that meshed well with Lebron's.. but guess what? Neither of em gave a flying fukk and were going to get the ball where they liked it and do what they liked to do, regardless.

Love (and Bosh before him) at some point gotta say, "Nah fukk all that. After i set this baseline screen for you, i aint clearing out so you can isolate, I'm sealing off my defender and you finna give me the ball. :usure: " And i don't mean saying it verbally, I mean saying it with your body language and letting em know you aint budging even if they waive you off at first.

Saw this a second ago......

That was just the 2nd time during the Pop/Duncan era that the Spurs have shot 56 percent from the floor and lost. The SECOND time. 18 years.

What the fuuuuuuuck. Cavs won???? I turned it off when they were down 3 and had to foul the Spurs. What the fukk...

Kawhi missed 2 free throws. Irving had the game tying 3. Spurs played well in over time, but Lebron and Irving just went on a whole different level.
