The loss to the Bucks was predictable. Going to their place, where they are very good, without Love, LeVert, & Lamar would have made a win improbable (it literally spells out an "L"). Throw on Allen getting hurt early and we were playing without 4 pieces we certainly could have used. That meant 36 minutes for Wade who is coming off of sitting for 2 weeks, 32 minutes apiece for Okoro & Cedi, and 19 minute for Lopez. You put all that together and the loss is not a bit surprising. What makes it somewhat painful is the way it happened. They turned up the heat and we melted.

Yeah, 38+ minutes after not touching a ball for 10 days is nuts. I thought Dean was going to fall over and not make it to the bench with 2 minutes left. Minutes are nice but that was abuse last night.
 
Yup, nothing in the tank the second half. The Bucks have set the pace.
 
Cavs should look at adding demarcus cousins
As goofy as this originally may sound at least he’s a big who can shoot 3s. I really think that’s our biggest issue. We have no spacing with Allen and Mobley. And love is way too soft to play the 5.
 
We should look to bring back Hartenstein, the Knicks simply don’t deserve him
 
I’d love to see the Cavs add this type of “45 PNR” to their playbook.

It basically functions as a horns/Spain PnR child and one big sets a screen directly behind the other and the point guard attacks.

Garland, Mitchell, Mobley, and Allen all have the technical ability required to run it. It will force opponents out of their drop defense that gives us so many problems. You can also run drag screens before it, legit any cuts off ball, etc.
