CLEVELAND -- All season, Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue said he would prioritize health over postseason seeding when it comes to managing his team. As the Cavs enter the last week before the playoffs begin, he's trying to achieve both.
Lue said he intends to play both LeBron James and Kyrie Irving until Cleveland clinches the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference.
Entering Friday night's game against the Atlanta Hawks, Cleveland held a 1 ½-game lead over the Boston Celtics for the East's top spot with four games left to play, giving the Cavs a magic number of two to clinch.
