NBA Finals 2016: 5 things we learned from Cleveland's win

4) Tyronn Lue made way better adjustments than Steve Kerr did

Not many expected Lue to win the NBA Championship with the Cavs

With the Dubs leading the series 3-1, and Game 5 going to the Oracle Arena, most people had written the Cavs off. Not Tyronn Lue though. The man who is best remembered as the guy who got stepped over by Allen Iverson had other plans for this series.

It’s ironic that according to popular belief, one of the many factors that lead to his team’s win was a step-over by his man, James over Draymond Green, a play that led to actions that got the latter suspended for a game (compounded by earlier misconduct as well).

However, it is one of the many many factors that potentially played a role. Take nothing away from Lue, he may not have been coaching the better team, but his coaching team had the better plan and executed that beautifully.

He made all the right adjustments, especially on the defensive end, which largely contributed to the eventual score-line. Even when Draymond was going berserk shooting those threes in Game 7, he did not panic and restricted the free flowing Warriors brand of basketball and forced them to make isolation plays and tough contested shots.

On the offensive end, his players made some key plays and got things done. He knew his group wasn’t low on talent, they were low on execution, he just got them oiled well enough to execute. The fact that he had two generational talents on his team, only helped his cause.
