    I know the cavs have a second gear for playoffs and whatever but honestly watching them now if I was a cavs fan I'd be seriously concerned.
    The Lebrons have some work to do to get into gear for the playoffs.

    They gave up 120 to the Lakers and trailed the mix of rooks, second year guys and filler that make up LA by 10 going into the fourth Q.

    The fans should be worried a little...I think the coaching staff is.

    There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.

      I don't think any of the fans are worried. The belief is that they'll be able to 'flip the switch' and become better defensively when the pressure is on (similar to the 2001 Lakers who had a bottom ranked defense during the regular season then annihilated teams in the postseason with the league's best defense).

      It's not crazy to think history could repeat itself... They've got the talent (well... LeBron) to pull it off.

          They'll lose more games than they did last postseason, I'm sure of that much

            • This Cavaliers team is far more 2002 Lakers than 2001 Lakers I suspect given the age and beginning of the physical breakdown.

              Like there is an element to which they are unbeatable untill they aren't. They will seem ineviedtable untill one year someone takes them down. (Still I doubt its this year lol)

              • On paper, our remaining schedule looks easier than what the Wiz have left.

                They have more games on the road and slightly tougher competition on a few more games but man we can just never trust this team to beat the teams they should. This could be a down to the last game scenario.

                  Wouldn't it be sad and ironic if the last game with the Cavs, would be decisive for both us at 3/4 seed and Cleveland with 1/2 seed? That would suck. Pretty unlikely though.
