    Do they suck or just not trying?

    I’ve seen their last 5 games and they literally have Zero effort. As soon as a shot is put up they all run back down looking down no 2nd effort. Wade is showing his age. JR has faded, love is too small to play with the big boy centers. LeBron will get his.

    Teams know let Lebron get his and shut everyone else down, they aren’t elite like Lebron is.

    IT is a defensive liability and when in Boston he had 4 other great defenders to help him. Cavs don’t have that.

    They will get bounced 2nd round. Celtics have 4 players in top 15 defensive ratings. Raptors or Celtics coming out the east for sure.

    I was watching part of the game against OKC
    Teams are literally bullying IT on both ends
    Unless he gets the foul calls and allow to continuously palming
    (which they called him for . .. meanwhile they allow Westbrook to routinely dribbled over his shoulder/high dribble)

    they just missed so many open shots . . . it was ridiculous
    they simply play NO defense.
    Their rotations are wack

    They do not suck that bad but they are ignoring good basketball as well.

    People were saying the same thing last year. They were 0-3 against the celtics and then went blew they out like 4 times. I think they can't beat the warriors, but thats about it.

    They’re not nearly as good as they were last year, and they’re not even trying to make it work. The sad thing is I still see them coming out of the east, but they won’t beat us or the warriors in a 7 game series.

    They won’t trade their best asset(Brooklyn’s pick) cause they’re worried about Lebron leaving so the path to improvement this year is hard.
