Cavaliers are still so illegible

It is definitely not easy to track and analyze the results Cavaliers this season. The face of the Cleveland team is not always the same, but it is often average, even mediocre. However, that was the case against the Nuggets, victory is achieved. It was better against the Pistons, but with defeat at the end…

However, the Pistons were without Jalen Duren and Tobias Harris and had a the first zone of turbulence.

“It’s hard to win when you lose possession”, explains Kenny Atkinson while his opponents made 15 more shots. “We were hurt by their physical attack. They put their hands everywhere, they defend very well. They are very physical in the pick and roll. It complicates things on offense. You have to give credit to their defense. They are first or not far this season. We haven’t been able to do much.”

“Our record speaks for our level”

Donovan Mitchell with his 23 points in the second half (30 in total) will give hope to the Cleveland team that has dominated since the completely failed second quarter.

“We fought at the end, but we weren’t there for the whole game. They had the advantage for a good part of the match. They were better”insists the coach. “We can’t relax,” warns the All-Star guard. “We started well and caught up. We will always fight. We should have won this match and we didn’t. It’s our fault.”

If we follow the words of the former jazzer, we can say that the Cavaliers are recovering a little after the estate “stole” success from the Nuggets last friday. Even if it is not surprising to see the leaders of the Eastern Conference dominate in a very irregular formation, eighth in the Eastern Conference with a record of 20-17.

“It’s a really good team and we feel like we’re a good team. We scored, they responded. It was a battle. As it wasn’t enough to win, we look at the second quarter and the mistakes we made. And, at this level, against very good teams, small mistakes cost money and undoubtedly we made too many.” Sam Merrill’s book. “Maybe we’re not playing at the Pistons’ level right now – our record says our level – but we’re starting to show what we’re capable of. There are ups and downs in the season and sometimes the downs last a little longer than we’d like, but I’m confident about our future.”
