In a disheartening loss to the Toronto Raptors, the Cleveland Cavaliers defensive woes and shooting inefficiency were on full display. The teams effective field goal percentage was a dismal fifty-five percent, while the Raptors soared to sixty-two-point-five percent. Clevelands three-point shooting was particularly abysmal, missing thirty-one attempts and converting only ten. The Raptors, however, made thirty-eight-point-seven percent of their threes. Torontos offensive rating of one hundred thirty-two-point-six was the highest the Cavaliers have allowed this season, highlighting a significant defensive breakdown. The Cavs reliance on Jarrett Allens interior presence was evident when he scored only six points, and Evan Mobleys limited shot attempts raised questions about his offensive role. These individual struggles, coupled with the teams defensive lapses, underscore the areas the Cavaliers need to focus on improving.
