“Pride. Pride. We’re at home. We don’t lose at home. And me personally, I don’t take that lightly” - Tyson Schroder is out, Strus is starting in Wade's spot, and that leaves Cleveland with exactly one usable two-way wing on the bench. That's Tyson. The numbers back it loud: Cleveland is -40 in this series, and Tyson is the only rotation player who's been a positive every single game he's stepped on the floor, going 0, +3, +3. Atkinson said postgame he has to expand the rotation, and a closeout game on your home floor is where you actually do it. The fit matters more than the workload. New York runs five-out with KAT as the hub and hunts the weakest wing defender every possession with Brunson screens. Cleveland needs a wing who can space against that and chase Bridges or OG without giving up the rim, and that's Tyson's exact profile. He shot 44.6 percent from three in the regular season, and his per-minute work has been clean defensive boards and active off-ball cutting. Atkinson has to shake things up and it would be smart for Tyson to get extended run. #PlayerProps @everyone
