Sideline reporters have to be careful with how they phrase their questions.
Kevin Love was on fire from the field Thursday night — helping the Cavs take a commanding 3-0 series lead over the Boston Celtics.
During a postgame interview, Mike Cairns of WEWS in Cleveland asked Kyrie Irving what it was like to witness Love “stroke it” so well.
“Kevin Love in that 14-2 run hit four straight threes,” Cairns said. “You’re a part of that, obviously, but how much fun (was it) to sit back and just watch that guy stroke it?”
Irving paused for a few seconds — before regaining his composure and answering the question.
