Cavs sticking with Kevin Love as starting center, Tristan Thompson as reserve

TORONTO - The Cleveland Cavaliers, at least for the time being, will stick with Kevin Love as their starting center despite the All-Star's individual struggles at the position this postseason, Cavs coach Tyronn Lue said Wednesday.

"Whatever is good for the team is what we're going to do," Lue said. "I think it spreads the floor out for us. (Jonas) Valanciunas is going to go to help and try to block shots. Kevin is going to have open shots all night, so, whatever is best for the team is what we're going to do.
