#4 Roster stability
As mentioned earlier, the Cavaliers were introducing plenty of new players to their roster at the start of the season. What made things worse and what eventually caused their early season struggles was injuries and that too to multiple players. They were unable to find reliable and stable rotations to field each game. Every second game, one of their key starters or rotations players needed a rest for recovery.
Over the past ten games, the team and the coaching staff have had a clearer picture of their rotation. A majority of their players (Derrick Rose, Iman Shumpert, Tristan Thompson) who were nursing niggles or sprains were going to be out for at least two weeks to a month.
