That said, I think it still boils down to Cleveland hitting shots. Cavs go cold, Toronto can pull the upset. If Cleveland hits, they win in 5, no more than six. Clevelands talent will allow it to find many open shots, especially threes. Add in Frye, and you get even more spacing. I would take a lineup of JR, Kyrie, Love, Frye and James as the best 5 man shooting lineup in the league. Better than Curry, Klay, Barnes, Dray, and 5th guy. (Not better team mind you, just pure shooting) Toronto just doesn't have that firepower.
