Kenny Atkinson not calling that timeout in Game 1 might've cost the Cavs the entire series.
Combo brought up the butterfly effect and honestly he's right. We've seen it before with Cleveland getting swept by Golden State. Lose Game 1 on the road and everything shifts.
I'm not someone who loves burning timeouts either. I believe in letting your guys figure it out. But in the playoffs, you can't let a team claw all the way back like that without stopping the run.
And then the Harden-Brunson mismatch on top of it. There was a simple schematic fix the Cavs just never used. #shorts
