Description: A talented Cavs team looked to be a late season test for a defense that was missing its best player, but the Lakers locked down Cleveland to start the 2Q and never looked back. The guys discuss how the changing coverages of that game were a microcosm of the team’s defense this season, and whether or not the Lakers can sustain level of play into the postseason.
