Not even sure he has tried to score - like in a very loooooong time.

I couldn’t remember him touching it so, out of curiosity, I went back and watched (since it was only 5 minutes with fast forward it didn’t take long). He literally never touched the ball on offense. Not at all. We were hot and it was 1 pass, or no pass, and shot. That’s got to be fairly unusual for someone to be in for 10 or more possessions and not get a single touch

As much as I love it, Darius why would you give them any sort of bulletin board material man.

Not sure that was his intention. That was literally what the Cavs were doing. Don's 8 point spurt to close the game came by hunting Herro on defense. When Miami tried to switch Herro off of Don, it did nothing but give him space to shoot and he took it.
 
I think I'll trust the Cavs are ready to be true contenders when they execute some movement and passing in the clutch. Not saying it doesn't end with Mitchell I'm just saying it's so obvious and the heat loaded up so much on him and garland that maybe running a simple action and then getting it to them would demonstrate their trust in their teammates
 
Tony Brothers with the attempted screw job was possibly the 2nd most annoying thing about that game. The way the Cavs ended the third quarter on offense is why they were in that doo doo in the 4th. Need to see them not BS around, even when they are up almost 20. No time for chucking in the playoffs.
