Yes, the Cavs have a very good defense.
Stuckey and AJ's continual improvement over the next 8 weeks and their ability to be able to carry that over into the playoffs along with Maxey bringing his A game in the playoffs will be the major factor in determining how far we advance in the playoffs.
If the second unit can go there in the playoffs and at least keep us even when they are on the floor we will have an excellent chance to advance to the Finals and maybe win it.
Whether Flipper will play them or not is the question. He may figure that the starters are rested enough because of the lower minutes they are logging this year. However, in my opinion that won't be enough.
In my opinion we will need to play the second unit in the playoffs and they will need to be able to hold their own when out there. That will in my opinion be the key to our success in the playoffs.
