The Cavaliers’ scorekeepers must have realized that Brandon Knight hasn’t been getting a whole ton of assists this year, because they were giving him some ridiculous ones. Passing it around the perimeter to OJ Mayo, watching him take two stationary dribbles, then driving to the basket using two more bounces should never count as an assist. EVER.
This is the kind of behavior I expect from the Cavs organization, to be honest. They rig everything. They rigged the lottery three times, they hand out frivolous assists, and the conspired to get LeBron’s mom living in Ohio so that he’d want to play for the Cavs. Don’t even get me started on the James Jones situation. LeBron comes back, and it just so happens that his Heat teammate comes along with him? Please.
