Now Comes The Tough Stuff

Darius Garland couldn't make his free throws in crunch time against the Houston Rockets and Cleveland Cavaliers fans are losing their minds. Is this something to really get bent out of shape about, or did it just happen to be one of those moments you brush off?

Also, are slumping role players becoming a problem? What's going on with Sam Merrill's jump shot? Will Isaac Okoro return to form with an injury to his shooting shoulder? Is Dean Wade reliable enough to start at the 3 and 4 and also be a backup big man?

Spencer German and Spencer Davies chime in on the latest episode of Courtside with Cavs on SI.
