I haven't been able to see any games recently so I've tried keeping up by following the games online but one thing I noticed is that iman shumpert is now starting ahead of Jr smith. I'm saddened if Jr lost his starting spot because of the suspension. That's usually something you'd see a coach do to college players, not NBA professionals. I see that shumpert was an absolute monster for the cavs before pulling his groin and perhaps that's why he's starting now. Could it also be because with shumpert the cavs are less of a three point shooting team than with Jr, and thats what it needs to be without love providing the spacing and additional shooting. shumpert is more of a slasher and has perhaps a smarter offensive game. It makes me wonder how the team woukd have looked with the shumpert of this series starting when love still played. The starting lineup with Jr getting heavy minutes was a team that scored a lot of points and made many three pointers.
Do you like shumpert over Jr in the starting five?
