There was a lengthy film session ahead of a Cleveland Cavaliers practice in Toronto not so long ago that popped up in memory on Wednesday, as the reigning Eastern Conference champions touched down north of the border on the heels of a blowout loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The last time Cleveland coach Tyronn Lue held one in Toronto was December 2016. The Cavaliers had lost three in a row and it was reported that the focus of a pre-practice video review was defence — or the lack thereof — with Lue showing about 80 clips of Cleveland’s mistakes during that slump.
