The Cleveland Cavaliers were the best team in the Eastern Conference last season, at least record-wise. As such, not making any big moves made sense to a degree, even though most fans agreed that their core was flawed.
Considering that, it wasn't much of a surprise to see the front office make only marginal moves. Trading for Lonzo Ball, however, looked like a potential catalyst to bring some much-needed grit and toughness to this team.
Now, nearly 50 games later, it's become painfully evident that the fans and the front office were wrong. Watching Ball play has been painful at times.
