PREVIEW: Cavs kick off West Coast road trip Wednesday night against Nuggets

1. Playing some defense

These two faced off at Quicken Loans Arena on Saturday, and the Cavs struggled mightily to stop… pretty much everyone.

Gary Harris lit them up for 32 points, while Will Barton added in 23 off the bench. Jamal Murray and Wilson Chandler also each had 16. As a team, Denver shot a whopping 54.7 percent from the field and 54.3 percent from deep.

Throughout the game, the Cavs were lazy defending off the ball and got stuck in a lot of long close-out situations that cost them. They will need their wing defenders to play with a little more pep in their step tonight.
