The Cleveland Cavaliers<\/a> have struggled against their last two subpar opponents. The Chicago Bulls are better than the Washington Wizards<\/a> and Charlotte Hornets, but are still a team that, on paper, the Cavs should be able to handle.<\/p>\n

The offensive side of the ball let Cleveland down in their overtime loss to Charlotte<\/a>. As has been a theme all season, they weren\u2019t able to get the three-ball to fall. This made it more difficult to get inside. It also didn\u2019t help that Donovan Mitchell had a rare off-night, shooting 6-24 from the field on Sunday.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll see if the Cavaliers can get back on track on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
