awful start.
the offense works if the players commit to the details of it. i see players not setting good picks off the ball, not cutting hard, not ready to make a catch and shoot. ive seen ton of brush screens but no hard picks to give shooters opening. ive seen a ton of kevin love open threes where he just pump fakes and drives to the basket. shoot the damn ball when open.
kyrie and dion can get into the lane but are more concerned scoring and not setting up the offense. i know it takes time for young guards to understand when to draw the defense or when to score. i just hope they learn fast.
lbj is also not aggressive enough. just stands around on offense and defense. set good screens, fight post position, challenge shots, make crisp passes, just do something. if lbj thinks he can take a back seat to the finals with this team he is in for a rude awakening. a team with no playoffs experience needs lbj more than a team with dwade and bosh.
lastly,
the defense looks awful. pick n roll defense is non existent. our bigs over commit to every pick which causes the defense to scramble and leaving the guards to defend the paint. the lack of a long shot blocking center is still an issue. the cavs desperately need the length and strength to guard opposing bigman. varejao is soft, k love just want to rebound, and tt is an overrated defender.
