I don’t like that Okoro’s iron man stretch may end

Yeah, time to start resting guys now that they have made the playoffs. Final 6 games are pretty irrelevant, outside of trying to win one or two to retain the 4 seed.

I doubt they stop pushing until the 3 seed isn’t possible. It’s unlikely, but Cavs are 2 behind the 6ers and the 6ers have a really hard stretch to close out while we have a very easy one.

I was at the game and a few things really jump out at you Garland gets chipped, bumped, or checked on almost every PNR. Allen gets fouled relentlessly. LeVert's defense is still pretty bad.
Kind of ridiculous how many minutes our starters played against a team like the Rockets. None of Cedi, LeVert, or Stevens look that good when they're out there with other bench players.

I don't think the Cavs should want the 3 seed, Heat are a much tougher challenge than the Knicks or Nets.
As well, Cavs have 3 more losses than the 76ers and lost the season series.
I say be happy with the 4 seed and go into the playoffs healthy.

If something is working, don't fix it.

9-2, now; that's ending the season in a very competitive mood.
We should keep it this way.

Of course we could run some honest Load Management here and there and even being over cautious about preventing any risk of a minor injure getting worse.
Other than that, let it fly.
