“We know that things are going to work out,” Cavaliers forward Kevin Love told USA TODAY Sports. “I know that we have a lot of talent here, guys who can do a lot of different things, so I tend to look at that more than the negative stuff.
“You saw what J.R. can bring (in scoring 27 points on 11 of 23 shooting against the Warriors). Whether he starts or comes off the bench, he can fill it up. Shump, he can add a lot, especially defensively, he brings a very high energy there and is a big player. With T-Mo (Mozgov), I’ve never played with a guy of that size and you saw a little bit of what he’ll be able to bring tonight (Nine points, eight rebounds, one block in 26 minutes).”
For all the chatter about the Cavs’ demise and this notion that they have no shot at winning the title that so many oddsmakers claimed was theirs to lose going into the season, the reality is that all this recent skepticism has only fueled this proud group. From James on down, there is a sense that the critics are doing nothing but fueling their fire while sparking the eventual resurgence that remains possible because of the considerable talent that is on board.
