Rotations are awful. IT (Isaiah Thomas) is so much worse than Kyrie defensively it's insane," said a league source. "There is not a great feeling anywhere. They need to limp into the All-Star break and get away from each other."
Concerns abound for a roster (the league's oldest) that appears ill-fit to match up in a seven-game series with the mighty Warriors. Golden State has beaten the Cavs in two of the last three Finals, in seven of the last eight games overall, and is again the NBA's best team at 36-9.
There are questions as to whether the pieces put in place by owner Dan Gilbert's new front-office team, headed by general manager Koby Altman, fit together -- regardless of opponent -- and whether the Cavs will make a trade by the Feb. 8 deadline. (A league source said that the team would certainly "try" to make a move.)
Thomas was 8-of-21 shooting against the Warriors and finished with 19 points. Thomas again mentioned the Cavs "don't practice" -- an apparent shot at the organization considering the number of times he's mentioned it over the past several days. He's continually cited a lack of practice as the reason he's playing his way into shape.
