CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Prior to Thursday night's game, Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue revealed plenty about his future lineup plans.
Then hours later he got a harsh answer to one lingering question.

He has plenty of championship experience and sent a reminder of his value during a recent win against the New Orleans Pelicans. With the injuries behind him, now in the best shape of his career after cutting out carbs, Thompson was eager to play a pivotal role in another postseason run. - CLICK HERE to read full story.

"Stop point shaving the first three quarters -- bout to give me a heart attack," Lue said. "If you play like that from the jump we win by twentysomething."
Lue's known for occasionally saying the ridiculous, usually (but not always) in jest.
In a different way, James has been ridiculous all season. He scored 33 points with 14 assists and nine rebounds in the Cavs' 119-115 win over the Washington Wizards. - CLICK HERE to read full story.

Lue missed nine games getting his personal health in order. His team went 8-1 with associate head coach Larry Drew in charge.
Suffice it to say, all the Cavs were feeling healthy and happy after this one. - CLICK HERE to read full story.
