| LeBron: Pavlovic should get more run |
Cavaliers coach Mike Brown didn't seem overly concerned that Orlando's bench outscored his bench, 25-5, in the Magic's 107-106 victory in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals.
"We know coming off the bench, we're not deep with our rotation," the coach said before practice Thursday.
James, who scored a career postseason-high 49 points in Game 1, suggested Brown give Sasha Pavlovic a chance.
"I think Sasha can be huge for us," James said. "Mentally, if Sasha's in tune, he could be really good for us with his 6-7 or 6-8, 240-pound frame, he could really help us on the defensive end, and he's also an offensive threat. You just cannot leave him open on the offensive end because he can make shots. Mentally, if Sasha's in tune, which I think he can be, and if he's called upon, I think he can be really good for us. We need that type of active body on the defensive end who can take a little bit of the load of myself and Delonte. . . . We could use him out there."
Said Brown, "Sasha is a guy we may consider."
