Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

Not trying to jinx it (is that even possible with this team?), but for some reason I have a feeling the Pacers series will be way tougher series than this Raptors once.

Only concern is 1 day off between games. Cavs might not have the juice especially without homecourt. Otherwise, I think these Raps are mental midgets and way easier matchup.

edit- would not have objected to Bron sitting this out and taking a "scheduled loss", plus other guys need experience/comfort at some point. If this gets out of hand, he may rest.

3:30 rest in 1st quarter...they may be focusing on game 2

Feels like the first time the role players truly got some extended time. They have no rhythm after watching LeBron's usage in the first series. They're awful, but I don't think they're as awful as they've looked. They need minutes on the court. As painful as it may get.

Maybe not popular/conventional, but I'm okay with it.
