    You cant plan for injuries to 2/3 of ur star players. No team can. They do the best with what they have left.

    Somewhere out there an analytical server just deleted the name Bazemore from its memory.

    Actually I think there's been some similarities with the Rockets. LeBron has had some mediocre games through the playoffs (like Harden) but role players have taken turns stepping up - JR, Shumpert, Tristan, Mozgov, and Dellavadova.

    Very true. Harden and LeBron play similar isolation styles. Though Harden is surrounded by streakier shooters who have bailed him out throughout the playoffs. I just don't see the firepower on the Cavs bench to last a 7 games series with Rockets or Warriors with better perimeter defenders.

    Has Webber gotten a word in at all? Reggie never shuts up.
