Summary

Ken and Lima are beside themselves after the Cavs blew a 22-point lead without a single timeout called, and the coaching decision is now the centerpiece of a morning that starts with both hosts at each other's throats before redirecting their anger where it belongs. The fatigue excuse gets some sympathy, but the failure to make adjustments as Brunson went on a one-man 18-1 run gets none, and Kenny Atkinson's breezy postgame presser made everything worse. The series isn't over, but the Cavs have a lot to answer for before tip-off tomorrow night.
