Love due back next week.
Smith has been moved to the bench. Korver started last night, but Hood will assume the starting role when he is back from injury.
What took Lue so long? Smith has been killing the Cavs for two seasons.
Ahhh yes
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2764321-jr-smith-on-role-after-benching-honestly-i-dont-knowCleveland Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue elected to switch up the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns, leaving JR Smith to come off the bench.
"Honestly, I don't know," Smith said when asked what his new role will be, per Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com.
Kyle Korver started in his place, but McMenamin noted Rodney Hood will assume the starting position when he returns from his back injury.
"But I think it's good for the first unit, though," Smith clarified. "Because we actually get to have someone out there we're going to run stuff for and who is a threat, as opposed to having somebody who is not an option."
According to McMenamin, Lue said he had a talk with Smith about moving him out of the starting lineup, but Smith didn't seem to think it was much of a discussion.
"We didn't talk," Smith said. "He sent me a text [Monday], and I told him, 'No problem.' I didn't know that it was a 'talk.'"
He continued, saying: "That's all right, though. I'm not upset about it. I just wish there would have been more dialogue, I guess."
So Smith seems like he is trying to say the right things, but then throwing in comments about not knowing what his role was, wishing there was more dialogue and disagrees with Lue's assertion that they talked about it. This sounds like it will go well. Lol
