Losing a game happens. It's the NBA. Nobody goes 82-0.

Losing a game to a team that is down 4 players also happens. The Cavs did that to some others earlier in the season.

Losing a game on National TV happens, it does.

Losing a game to your rival is bound to happen sooner or later.

That is what happened to Cleveland tonight. Except the problem was, they seemed to revert back to some of their old tendencies. Late turnovers. Lack of execution when the game was on the line.

Josh Hart was still giving them trouble, finishing with 13 points, a career-high tying 19 rebounds and 10 assists. Jalen Brunson got hurt in the first minute of the game, and this team came out and won by nine points despite being down three other starters.

Is JB Bickerstaff the answer at Coach? Should Tristan Thompson re-enter the rotation upon returning? Are the Cavs headed for another disappointing first-round exit?

Answering the burning questions and assessing the performance on tonight's recap episode.
