those of you who think the cavs arent in any danger at all must not watch games. the cavs are not an athletic team, outside of lebron. this is the root cause of the poor defense. they also have no rim protector. with that said of course they still defend better than they are now by simply digging in, focusing, and communicating. their deficiencies will still be there though. do NOT sleep on the raptors if lowry comes back. they have a big physical frontline, and a great backcourt. derozen will get any shot he wants, lowry is one of the outside shooters in the league. the wizards will use and abuse the cav back court as well. they have shooters all over the court, and most importantly, they do not fear the cavs. once the fear is gone, thats when they REALLY come at your neck.
lebron is getting too old to have to carry this shyt the way he does.
also the lue is dumb as shyt if he thinks the team needs MORE rest. this team needs as much time on court as possible. they have no chemistry right now.
