Joe with a brilliant timeout after two consecutive poopy possessions (both turnovers) with about 5 mins left. Cavs cut the lead down to 9. They were about to **** their pants again. Joe put a stop to it. Cs ended the game with 5 easy buckets, all assisted.
I voted for Al for obvious reasons and coach/team because of this exactly. After the timeout you can see Joe waiving his arms every time to hurry up and go while the team wanted to default back to slow it down. He's not flawless, but definitely showed Joe was not the reason we were milking the clock with way too much time left to do so. Hopefully between this and getting killed by every announcer and the media whenever we do it the message finally sinks in. Cavs, although extremely shorthanded, were getting into their stuff with 20-21 seconds left and we were doing dribbling drills until under 10 almost every time. Credit to both players and coaches for righting that ship after the timeout.
