Now for the defense.
Again, the Cavaliers were effectively playing their backups for this game. Their #1 defender (and league MVP, guaranteed) LeBron was out. The insanely underrated interior defender known as Z was out. Solid on-the-ball defender Mo Williams was out. 4-time defensive player of the year Ben Wallace was out (with a knee-lump or something). And again, tremendous defenders West and Varejao were relative non-factors as well.
