Cleveland was credited with making things difficult for the Nets but in reality New Jersey simply doesn't have consistent shooters...
Jason Kidd and Richard Jefferson will never be mistaken for marksmen and Vince Carter is an average shooter behind the 3-point line. The Cavs are a good defensive team but they benefited from many missed opportunities when New Jersey had open looks...
Meanwhile the Pistons have shooters at every position and extend defenses because of their offensive touch on the perimeter...
btw... Cleveland is 0-11 in the franchise’s history when opening Game 1 of a series on the road...
