There's a new king in the Land, and he's wasting no time marking his territory.
After sliding over one chair in coach's row, newly-minted Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue minced no words with respect to his former superior David Blatt.
Tyronn Lue on what he'll do differently than Blatt: "I wouldn't say 'differently,' I would say 'better.'"

Lue will have big shoes to fill, as Blatt did lead the Cavaliers to a 83-40 record and a Finals appearance over parts of two seasons. But with it being a championship-or-bust season for Cleveland, that wasn't enough.
What Cleveland is looking for is exactly what Lue said: They're hoping for better.
