Locked On Cavs

On this episode of Locked On Cavs, Danny Cunningham (The Inside Shot, 92.3 The Fan, Cleveland Magazine) provides an in-depth analysis of the Cleveland Cavaliers' recent playoff series loss to the Indiana Pacers. He examines the impact of the Caris LeVert and Georges Niang trade, questioning its effectiveness given the team's struggles against Indiana. The episode also highlights the Cavaliers' bench performance, with Danny attributing their underwhelming showing to injuries affecting key players like De'Andre Hunter and Darius Garland. Donovan Mitchell's playoff efforts are scrutinized, particularly his resilience in playing through injuries, while Jarrett Allen's role on the team is reassessed, suggesting he is more of a role player than a core member. The podcast concludes with a discussion on the Cavaliers' 2020 draft choice of Isaac Okoro over Obi Toppin, defending Okoro's defensive contributions despite offensive limitations.Check out Danny’s Substack, The Inside Shot: https://theinsideshot.substack.com/
