The Cavs had no issue scoring on the Warriors. Their problem was stopping them in transition and on defense. They have no + perimeter defenders besides Lebron. Paul George replacing Kevin Love is a huge upgrade on defense and a decent upgrade on offense as well. They would be able to switch every screen.
The Cavs might have had a better chance if Kevin Love didn't see the court. He is that bad defensively.
Kevin love was an excellent and better scorer than George as a number one option. George isn't even that amazing as a number one option offensively with no one else on the pacers fighting for usage. On the cavs like love he'd be third option and I'm not sure if he can handle that role that well. Love is also a better three point shooter which seems to be paramount when playing the four with bron.
I'm not sure if drat is a great stat any means but love had the best one on the cavs starting lineup in the playoffs. Loves drat is also the best by far in the finals on the cavs.
