When Coach Lue took over for David Blatt last year, Lue’s philosophy was going to be push the ball, play fast and use lock down defense to create offense.
The team at first did not like it, especially LeBron but they eventually got used to it and figured it out. It led to a championship.
Now after suffering a man handling courtesy of the Spurs, the team is looking for answers.
The answer is simple, they have lost their way.
Lue’s philosophy is not being executed on the court. There are too many mental lapses on defense and shots just aren’t falling.
