No Kyrie Irving? No problem.

Yes, that is the optimist's outlook in Cleveland heading into Game 2. If Irving is done for the year, no worries -- as they would say in Australia.

I was not expecting to find much optimism among Clevelanders following the Cavs' Game 1 loss in which Irving aggravated his knee injury, but then I went on 92.3 The Fan radio in Cleveland with Adam "The Bull" and was hit with a dose of non-negativity that seemed so unClevelandish, it required further investigation.

And upon further investigation, I learned why "The Bull" was preaching patience. It is because he is from Brooklyn, not Northeast Ohio. Not that there's anything wrong with being from Brooklyn, which is where Chris Bernucca hails from, but even Bernucca knows that things look dire for the Cavs heading into Game 2 unless somebody from their bench steps up in a huge way in Game 2.

Will that player be Dellavedova? Maybe Mike Miller? Does David Blatt have an ace in the hole with Joe Harris?
