I think I watched game 1, 2, and 4… In game 2 and game 4, I think Cavs didn’t do their best in terms of time management and strategy. I am not used to seeing a team giving up a game when they are down by ~10 points with more than a minute to play. Game is far from over, isn’t it? I have seen so many games (including regular season games) where a team comes from behind to win or tie in such situations. Especially when you are in the finals, why ever give up?
The crunch time is when coach’s strategy and execution matter most. With a player like LeBron, I think Cav’s coach could have deployed many setup plays such as drive, get fouled, and score / screen help + 3 pt attempt / etc. etc…
During the crucial last minutes of the games, Cav’s players seemed lost and I couldn’t see any determination from LeBron (can’t understand why – ).
Is it just me?
