Everything About This Cavaliers Possession Was Bonkers, Especially Kevin Love's Pass

This Cavaliers possession was all over the place and still somehow managed to work.

This Cavaliers possession in the third quarter got about as close to total anarchy as a possession can get while still managing to succeed. There was no order, and if there were any laws, they were all ignored. And still, they got two points out of it. Cleveland got the rebound off a Phoenix miss right as the shot clock expired and pushed up court to LeBron. He quickly avoided a steal with some nifty behind-the-back spin move and then whipped an english-heavy pass to Timofey Mozgov near the rim. Mozgov couldn't handle it and it spilled over to Kyrie Irving, who whipped another english-y pass to Kevin Love in the corner and then shit got real cool.

What even is this? Love, in one spectacular and fluid motion, took Irving's pass and didn't so much pass it, as redirect it behind his back to LeBron, who finished with a chaotic driving layup. You think you've seen just about every possible offensive possession in a basketball game and then this happens.
