Tyronn Lue said Sunday that he liked the physical approach the Cavaliers showed in Game 4 and his team needs to replicate the same mindset on Monday's Game 5 at Oakland.
Could Cavaliers-Warriors reach the level of the Celtics-Lakers rivalry? With the Warriors coming to town on Christmas, the Cavs are treating this edition as any other regular-season game.
Cavaliers guard J.R. Smith, who suffered a "complex fracture" of his right thumb on Tuesday, had surgery and will miss 12-14 weeks.
Although Grizzlies coach David Fizdale considers LeBron James "a one-percentile guy when it comes to basketball intelligence," he doesn't envision the Cavs star one day manning an NBA sideline.
Cavs coach Tyronn Lue said he's "moving on" after talking to J.R. Smith about his "embarrassing" gaffe during Tuesday's game.
J.R. Smith claimed he didn't remember a moment in the Cavs' blowout loss to the Bucks in which he ignored his defensive responsibilities in order to hug Jason Terry, who was on Milwaukee's bench.
