The Cleveland Cavaliers lost home court advantage in Game 1 of their second-round playoff series to the Indiana Pacers, falling 121-112 on Sunday night. The top seed in the East left the game with more than just the loss, too.
Speaking to reporters on Monday head coach Kenny Atkinson revealed two key Cavaliers—Evan Mobley and DeAndre Hunter—were questionable entering Game 2. Mobley tweaked his ankle and Hunter dislocated his thumb on plays Atkinson felt were pushing the boundaries of what's acceptable. He stated he didn't think the plays were dirty, per se, but called the Pacers out for crossing the "line of physicality."
