Bah, damnit!!  Didn’t think they would sweep them, but they got close to 3-0.

They wouldn't have been in it without Cade.  But he also sort of pissed it away.  

True. And we wouldn't be up 2 games to 1 without him. Its a loss, it was kinda hard to beat Cleveland 3 in a row. Win Monday and go up 3-1.

I understand he took Ausar out for spacing on offense.  Still not a fan of it.

Reed earned game 4 minutes IMO.

A winnable game ruined by JB sitting Reed and re-inserting Duren and no Ausar on Harden when Harden was cooking the Pistons. JB is a glorified motivator, his X's and O's leave A LOT to be desired.

Reed earned more 4th quarter minutes in this game. He outplayed Duren and it wasn’t close.
 

Just JB doing JB things.

It’s too bad Stewart couldn’t become more of a 3 point threat and/or Duren didn’t have to be in the paint on offense.  Finding Reed minutes at C wouldn’t be so difficult.

That’s probably got to be top of the to do list this offseason?  Thompon’s offense overall and maybe back to the drawing board for Stewart on the arc?

Or maybe it’s move Duren in a sign and trade if some team (hopefully with lots of assets) offers him max?
