David Blatt has said that playing three games in five days has had an impact on his Cleveland Cavaliers side in the NBA Finals.
The Eastern Conference champions slipped to a 103-82 defeat in game four against the Golden State Warriors, leaving the series tied at 2-2.
The coach told reporters: "[Thursday] was the third game in five days, including the trip back from the West Coast, and it seemed to have an impact on us, yes."
The teams meet again in the Warriors' Oracle Arena tomorrow.
