Kevin Love returned to the Cavaliers last night after missing 21 games with a broken hand and mental health struggles. The All-Star forward played well, adding 18 points, seven rebounds, four assists, and two blocks to the 124-117 win over the Bucks. He did not play full minutes but told reporters it felt good to get his legs under him and is all set to increase his workload. Apparently it will be assistant coach Larry Drew figuring out the schedule instead of Ty Lue for now. Lue is stepping away from the team to focus on his health after leaving his third game early this season on Saturday night. Lue told reporters that he has undergone multiple tests but doctors cannot put their finger on exactly what is causing the Cavs coach to have chest pains and cough up blood on occasion. ESPN has reported that Lue is planning to be away from the team for around a week and hopes to return feeling healthy enough to make a playoff run. This will certainly be another obstacle for LeBron and the Cavs as they are still trying to fine-tune their rotation after the deadline acquisitions and the return of K-Love. April is creeping up and they are running out of trial time. These games are going to start counting real soon and the Cavs need to be firing on all cylinders before then if they want to win the East, let alone challenge the Western powers. I hope Coach Lue figures out what is ailing him and finds a quick remedy so he can return to the team for an exciting postseason.
