The Cavs are proving one thing. LeBron James can't win games all by himself, and the supporting cast is very mediocre. While James was going 12-21 last night against the lowly defenseless Knicks, the rest of the Cavs were 23-69 or 33%. It's been an ongoing saga for this team, and they have now dropped 9 of their last 11 games. They are getting out-scored by five points a game, out-shot in FG percentage and sit in the bottom third of the league in points allowed - certainly not a winning formula. The Lakers are playing their best basketball of the season having won six-of-seven, surpassing the 100-point mark in all seven games, averaging over 110 points per game. This is an offense that is really clicking right now and it isn't just Kobe. The Lakers have had five or more players in double-digits in each of the last three games, and five of the last seven. Will back the surging “Lake,” show who is simply clicking right now against a struggling Cavaliers’ team.
