Over the past eight games, the Cavs are allowing 115.8 points per 100 possessions, which would rank no. 29 in the league—far below their third-ranked defense before this stretch. Cavs players have spoken recently about the need to rediscover their defensive identity. Even Bickerstaff said he thinks the team has gotten too comfortable. Sunday’s win over Toronto was a nice performance to get back on track, but it wasn’t just the team’s defense that came up big.
