Cavs don't have enough depth and experience

[Hey Yo]

J.R. Smith is only 2 seasons removed from winning 6th MOY

Apparently you don't watch them play.

Who did you think the Cavs starting SG was?

Not this year. Perkins and Marion are in the bottom 30 players in the league (along with Dellavaova). And Mike Miller has literally barely played all year.

James jones as well forgot him..

But they have LeBron.

The deeper the playoffs go, the shorter teams' rotation get anyways. Depth is overrated when the playoffs start and your main guys are playing 35-40+ minutes a game. You can't do that over an 82-game season when you have back-to-backs, two week-long road trips on the opposite coast and five games in seven nights.

In the playoffs, where you have at least a night off in between every game and are not traveling every day, there's really no need to go beyond your best 7-8 guys. That's where versatility comes in handy and the Cavs have a bunch of guys who can play multiple positions. Not to say they'll definitely win it all or even come out of the East... but, if they don't, I doubt it will be because of their "lack of depth."

The bench is especially lacking vs all other contenders minus the clippers.
