The Cavaliers’ slow start is alarming but we’ve seen this movie before. This is very reminiscent to the start the Miami Heat had back in 2010. It will take time and there’s too much talent on that roster for this not to work.
LeBron has a theory as to why the Cavs have started they way they have. He feels that old habits are tough to shake.
“There’s a lot of bad habits, a lot of bad habits been built up the past couple years,” James said. “When you play that style of basketball, it takes a lot to get it up out of you.”
“I’m trying to do other things, to try to instill what it takes to win,” James said. “My mission is not a one-game thing. We have to do multiple things to win. […] I think a lot of people get it misconstrued on what it takes to win, you know just scoring or just going out and trying to will it yourself,” he added.
“A lot of guys that’s gonna help us win ultimately haven’t played a lot of meaningful basketball games in our league,” James said.
