Limiting James Minutes This Season 

 Tyronn Lue is worried about keeping his 14 year veteran refreshed this upcoming season. Lue talked about how the Cavaliers schedule has two 5 game in 7 day stretches which is key because he wants the players to remain healthy. Not driving his players into the ground is a strong point. LeBron James minutes were at a career low last season 35.6 minutes per game. Then jumping up to 39.1 minutes per game which is smart. Last year midway through the season Lue gave James two weeks off. Lue said that James came back looking noticeably refreshed. Although his ideas revolve around James this doesn't mean other players won't be seeing the same type of concept come start of the season. The Cavs' training staff uses biometrics to monitor the players health. Grading them by their body being in the green, yellow, or red zone. This is based on the minutes they play, activities, workouts, stress, and more. When a player enters the red zone Lue is advised to sit that player out.

Welcome Back


 Hello Cav's fans! Welcome back to another year at my blog spot. I was lucky enough to have this same blog continue on in another class. I'm excited to post about your 2016 NBA Champions the Cleveland Cavaliers. LeBron James, Kyrie Irving, and the supporting cast brought home to Cleveland the first championship in any sport since 1964. The Cleveland Browns brought a ship home that year with the Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown. It has been a long time coming but it finally paid off in the best way. The Cavaliers are the first team in NBA history to ever come back from a 3-1 deficit in the series. The record for 3-1 deficits in the playoff finals in now 1-84. The Cav's have that one comeback. So to do it in spectacular fashion against the best record to ever be put up in the NBA by the Golden State Warriors is pretty phenomenal.
