The Cleveland Cavaliers have not looked like the ultra-efficient, elite offense that they were last season in 2025-26. In order to fix that, one seemingly simple adjustment is going to go a long way: getting more paint touches, which will naturally open up the offense from there.
Last season, the Cavs finished the year registering first in the league in offensive rating. This year, they're just outside the top 10 at 11th. While that's obviously not bad, and you could theoretically still win a lot of games performing how Cleveland is right now on offense, there's simply so much more that we know can be unlocked.
