PHILADELPHIA, Pa. -- The Cavaliers and coach Byron Scott had a day off on Monday to reflect on the tumultuous past week, during which the team lost four games, including three blowouts, and fell hard in LeBron James' return with the Miami Heat.
Scott admitted he was struggling to find the right mix, especially on the defensive end, but he was a bit evasive when asked whether he'd make changes tonight against the Sixers in Wells Fargo Center.
"Not to start the game,'' he said after the morning shootaround. "We'll start the same lineup and then we'll go from there.''
Will that mean rookies Manny Harris and/or Samardo Samuels will be activated? Or will Jamario Moon, who didn't play at Detroit, be inactive?
Scott didn't say. Asked about Moon not playing at Detroit, he did say, "Just looking at other guys. Joey [Graham] played pretty well for a while and hasn't played real well the last few games. Jawad [Williams] has played pretty good. He hasn't shot the ball good but what he brings...a sense of toughness that we need on both ends of the floor. I thought the last couple games he has given us that. So I'm just searching, trying to find answers.''
