Watching the TOR-CLE game ...... Halftime, TOR leads 56-54 after battling back from 18pts down.
Two-cents (from watching this and a few other CLE games):
** It's still way too early and he is a rookie NBA coach, but I haven't seen anything outstanding from David Blatt, so far ....... it's all isolation-heavy on offense and his team defense is far inferior to other 'new' NBA coaches.
** Again, it's all early, but Kevin Love does look lost in this CLE offense - all he seems to do is camp in the 3pt area, waiting for the kick-out ...... not much difference with Dudut Jaworski.
As for defense, Love has always looked lost since joining the NBA. Can't teach an old dog new tricks.
** TOR deserves its record ...... ball and people movement is fast and they have some very decent takeover guys e.g. Derozan, Lowry & Williams
