All that matters is pleasing the coach

From Jason Lloyd:

"5. [Cleveland Cavalier Coach David] Blatt went with an old school lineup for the fourth quarter Monday. The three new acquisitions, the three pieces that have injected some life into the Cavs and turned their season around, all sat the bench for the fourth quarter. Timofey Mozgov and J.R. Smith didn’t play at all, while Iman Shumpert played less than a minute.

6. That left [Matthew] Dellavedova to play the entire quarter. Good thing, too. He scored 10 points in the fourth and went 3-for-4 on 3-pointers, including two in the final three minutes. His 3-pointer with 2:35 left was one of the biggest shots of the night and extended the Cavs’ lead to 91-83.

7. Don’t look now, but Delly is shooting the highest percentage on 3s of any Cavs player (42.4 percent). His assist-to-turnover ratio is better than 3 to 1..."

The author also writes that Cav fans, or at least the ones who reach out to him, aren't happy that Delly is playing. Weird.
