You think a rookie and 2nd year player will fair well against a Lebron led team in the playoffs?

The regular season is not indicative of the playoffs whatsoever. How do you guys fail to learn this lesson every year?

The Cavs are a horrible defensive team. You really think a team is a favorite of the East if they neglect the other half of the court?

Yes, I do, until they meet up against the Warriors. IT is going to make their offense overwhelming as well.

You don't play defense, you're not gonna go far in the playoffs. Period. And if you do get far, you'll eventually get eliminated by a better defensive team

:dahell:

You gotta be delusional to think a Lebron team is not going far in the playoffs because of defense. Well I know you're delusional because you're a celtics stan convincing yourself that the celtics are ready this year to take out the Cavs when that most likely isn't the case. There's no super secret defensive scheme to shutting Lebron down.

You look like you're delusional to sportscenter and believe a high powered offensive team with no defense is winning a title or even going to a Finals

Look at the Warriors. High powered offense with a great defensive system. Same with the Spurs. Cavs won the title in 2016 because of DEFENSE. It's like every year people pretend defense ain't the reason a team goes far in the playoffs, only to be proven wrong in the playoffs. It's like clockwork, wash rinse and repeat

Were Cavs a good defensive team last year?

They were better last year than this year. Do the Cavs have the same effective perimeter defense and rebounding ability this year like they had last year?
