Unfortunately, injury problems hit the Cavaliers as they soared. Sexton collapsed in November with a meniscus injury, and then Rubio suffered a reimbursement in the best season of his career, the Cavaliers are in desperate need of someone to step up, and in addition to trading to Rondo, Love's performance on the bench is also particularly important.

3. Three-pointers
Love has consistently hit three-pointers at high shooting percentages this season, shooting 43 percent from the field, and shooting three three-pointers in just 21 minutes per game, and the Cleveland Cavaliers aren't a great three-pointer, with a team of 35 percent this season and 17th in the NBA, which is why Love is crucial.

At the moment he is more motivated to play on the pitch.
Championship experience
