Almost every player on the Lakers can create their own shot as we witnessed last night. The Cavs are a very different team altogether...they are role players on Lebron's team. It's always been their nature. If one person doesn't perform their role, the entire team will struggle.

It's very easy for the elite teams to see how they can shut down the Cavs primarily bc they have all the right pieces and don't have to sacrifice any of their positions. Let's face it.....if we had a center with a little bit of speed, energy and jumping ability, we wouldn't be in this situation. Or at least another big forward that is offensively capable. This is indeed a matchup problem....as everyone has stated thus far. It was the same problem in the reg. season.

It's gonna take a miracle for the Cavs to pull this series out.....unless the Magic get all panicky and start to choke
