Stingy Bulls Spoil Lue's Debut

Wrap-Up -- The Cavaliers aren’t the first team to struggle shooting the basketball against the Bulls this season. But they had hoped for a different result in Tyronn Lue’s debut as the Wine and Gold’s new head coach.

The day after replacing David Blatt with Lue at the helm, Cleveland couldn’t find any sort of offensive rhythm – shooting 37 percent from the floor, 16 percent from long distance and 41 percent from the stripe – falling to Chicago for the second time this season, 96-83, on Saturday night at The Q.

The Cavs jumped out to an early six-point edge, but that’s about as good as it’d get in a primetime showdown with their Central Division rivals.
