How critical is Game 4 to deciding the first-round series between the Cavs and Raptors?
In this episode of the Wine and Gold Talk podcast, host Ethan Sands and cleveland.com columnist Jimmy Watkins preview a critical Game 4 between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Toronto Raptors after Toronto cut the series deficit to 2-1.
The discussion centers on the resurfacing of the Cavaliers' historical playoff struggles, specifically physical fatigue, perimeter defense lapses, and struggles to contain Scottie Barnes and Toronto's transition offense.
While Sands advocates for adjusting the rotation slightly by playing the energetic but inexperienced Craig Porter Jr. over struggling veteran Dennis Schroder, Watkins argues that Cavs head coach Kenny Atkinson is highly unlikely to abandon his trusted veterans in a high-stakes playoff environment.
