    So, he should. Waiters and Irving just look to gun. They don't get anyone involved. Basically, dribble dribble iso iso shoot shoot.

    Also, he's the second best player on the team. He should be option 2 when James is playing and option 1 if he isn't.

    His long-ball threat is a valuable weapon; the reason head coach David Blatt is utilizing him in that fashion. Love says the offense calls for him to be out on the perimeter, but he says he has to make sure he remembers to go inside more.

    "Yeah, the offense is built that way but I just have to make a conscious decision to get myself in there," Love said. "There are a lot of times where I just find myself fading to the three-point line. For me, it's a mentality and that's easy to fix.
    People overreacting hard.

    Sounds like he's putting more blame on himself than anyone else. It's preseason and the entire team is practically new and under a new coaching staff running a completely new offense. Love, Kyrie and the rest of the team will be fine.

    I wonder how many times this season kyrie and dion will take more shots than bron and love

    Got a feeling we'll still see a lot of isos and long 2's from them.

    Love will get plenty of touches.

    LeBron loves to pass because he's scared to score. He doesn't like the pressure of actually shooting.

    Love will have no problem.

    it will test Blatt's coaching, that's for sure.

    if Blatt is a real coach, he will put Kyrie and Dion in the doghouse if they do that.

    So if dude is scared to score averaging 26 points a game, then I wonder how many points he would score if he wasn't scared.

    You're such a bumbling idiot your troll efforts aren't even generating a reaction out of me anymore.

    What does Waiters have to do with Love getting the ball? He's a shooting guard. You people are clowns.

    Kyrie, I'm the other hand...

    One thing I noticed is he said that the coach wants him to play out on the perimeter.......Then he says he needs to make a conscious decision to go inside more and he "knows the coach wants him to that". No, I don't think Blatt wants him to go inside that much, that's why the offense is mostly designed for him to stay out on the perimeter...

    I think is going to have to accept the fact that he will be on the perimeter most of the time, just like Bosh. But Bosh doesn't want to play inside anyway. Love used to play inside most of the time in college, when did he really start shooting a lot of 3's anyway?

    If David Blatt were smart, he'd move Kyrie to SG and have Lebron running point. That is the only to fix this.

    Not a troll effort at all little guy.

    Everyone knows LeBron is scared of pressure and plays hot potato when the pressure mounts.

    All I'm saying is that LeBron's "unselfish" mentality just stems from the fact that he'd rather have someone else take the chance to score. That's just who he is as a person.... very passive, timid, and doesn't deal with criticism well.

    Love and Irving aren't scared to shoot in pressure situations which is why the Cavs are such a scary team on paper

    Not to mention they have great post presence with Andy V and other great role players who love pressure.

    Miller and Waiters are guys who can hit clutch shots as well.

    This team is the most stacked team in history, and I've been studying the game for 30+ years. Never seen a team more stacked relative to their competition.

    If this team doesn't at least win 5 ships together.. I would personally consider it a massive failure

    And for those of you guys who have a hardon for LeBron and actually consider him the leader of the team... well guess what, the blame is going DIRECTLY to him. Period.
