Because the Knicks were blown out on Wednesday by the Bulls, nobody thought the Cavs would fall to New York on Wednesday. Especially with what was thought to have been an energized LeBron James. But because of the way in which the Cavs lost, people are already starting to get nervous.
Kyrie Irving had a potential theory as to why things didn’t go as planned in their first game of the season: communication between he and coach Blatt. If the PG and coach are on the same page, that’s an issue.
“For us, it’s just a better communication between me and Coach Blatt,” Irving said. “That’s basically what it boils down to. I’m his point guard out there, and some things that I see, you know, he has plays in his mind and I have plays in my mind as well.
“We’re just going to continue to grow. It’s a process. Within practice, we kind of switch on and off [calling the plays], but for us it’s about what’s going on out there on the court and what he sees and what I see, and hopefully we can get on the same page pretty soon.”
