I'd like to see Exum and Zizic get more minutes. Until Nance is ready to return I would play TT and Zizic at center with Love and Henson at PF. Since Cedi can't play 48 minutes I think we'll see a lot of three guard units with Garland, Sexton, Exum and Knight getting a lot of minutes.
Beilein said that he was happy with the way Knight played even though he didn't make the shots he's going to make in the future.
Delly only played four minutes and was a -10. The night before he only played 8 minutes. He averaged 13 minutes in December. You'd think with Porter moving to a starting forward position last night it would free up more time for Delly but Beilein went with Knight and Exum off the bench instead. I wonder if Beilein is getting tired of Delly's 3-pointers banging off the rim.
It's going to be even tougher sledding the next week or two with both Nance and Porter out, plus Clarkson having been traded. That kind of guts our second unit. It showed last night as the Cavs were outscored by 14 in the second quarter and lost by 15. Last week in Toronto they were outscored by 14 in the second quarter and lost by 20.
Zizic put up TT numbers last night - 15 and 12 in 25 minutes with a couple of assists and a steal. I'd like to see both of them in the same games against the same opponents.
