They had yesterday off and the home side did not, which is the least fair arrangement in professional sport and happens to everybody eventually. Legs are gone by the third quarter, the rotation goes strange, and a coach has to decide in public which of two games he was ever really going to win. Cleveland will not be offering any sympathy about it. What makes a tired game worth watching is that nothing can be disguised - the execution is visibly harder, the mistakes are real rather than tactical, and you learn more about a roster in one exhausted Thursday than in a month of comfortable ones. The seats are also the best value of the week, for exactly the reason that most of the city chose last night instead of this one. Sit low if the price allows and watch the bench rather than the ball for one stretch; on a tired night the decisions being made there are the most interesting thing in the room.
