Cleveland Cavalier 2017-2018 Season

^^^^^^ Ha Ha! That's actually pretty much how it went!

SC’s top 10 was LeBron’s GW from 10 different camera angles. Pretty cool

Gotta give Lue credit on the last play. Sure LeBron made his move, and he play was get LeBron the ball. But, not advancing the ball there was a very, very smart decision. Not sure many, if any, coaches would do that.

I didn’t think they had any timeouts

I agree. That's what was being talked about last night about how Hubie questioned it. 

IMO, to take the full court in bounds to LeBron over the half court was very very smart. 

The Cavs didn’t have any timeouts. They couldn’t advance the ball. 

Idk the rules on advancing the ball as it pertains to timeouts but if you look at the play by play after Anunoby makes the tying three pointer with eight seconds left it says Cavs call full timeout.

Oh good catch. I didn’t see it live, so I was only going on what the ESPN score-bug said. Which obviously was after the 3. 

With the time it took, it had to be a timeout. I'm gonna see about this.

Basically you have to call the timeout as soon as you gain possession. Whether it be a rebound or a made bucket. Can’t dribble or pass it and then call the TO to try and advance.

And, I'm back after a quick Google, first article paragraph one comes from USAToday:

"CLEVELAND – LeBron James’ epic game-winning shot began with Cleveland coach Ty Lue’s decision to take the ball out of bounds under the basket after a timeout instead of halfcourt with eight seconds remaining in the fourth quarter."

Did you all also note how Love was able to run the baseline?

I lol’d

They called timeout, elected to not advance the ball. Lue wanted LeBron in open court coming up to be able to avoid double teams and get going toward basket faster.

Exactly. 

TY for helping to explain.

Lots of people, cause when do you ever see it by choice?

Hopefully the Cavs don't fuck around today and close this shit out.
