What's wrong with our defense?
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Might take awhile for our offense to get going. There have been flashes thus far in the preseason, but I haven't liked the quality of a lot of our shots that we've been taking. A lot of iso jumpers and early shot clock jumpers.

The Cavs are just outworking The Celtics so far....

It seems like there's no chemistry  (which is odd considering that our roster is almost identical to last season)

For the 3rd preseason game, this is awful basketball.

Too overconfident with their preseason ranking

I agree with this.

Yeah, they are just outworking us right now.  Which is unacceptable.
We aren't so talented that we can coast through typical games.

Not working hard in this one but also missing a lot of easy shots.

Yep. They certainly don't look like the have any chemistry. Though I would argue that adding both Kyrie and Hayward back in the lineup is more of a change than you intimate.
