The Cleveland Cavaliers offense has looked like anything but its normal self with shooters struggling to knock down their outside jumpers and center Kevin Love’s inability to post-up smaller players, leading to an offense that lives and dies with LeBron James.
Such a model is entertaining, perhaps, for the legions of LeBron fans that get to see him play the role of Michael Jordan, scoring nonstop as he imposes his will on the defense.
Nonetheless, it’s not a winning formula against the true powerhouse teams of the NBA, unless the Cavaliers continue to play impressive defense perhaps — something harder to do when there are multiple All-Stars on the opposing team.
