The Cavs are built to play an inside game, much like the Lakers are. When it comes down to individual match-ups, I think Orlando was too small to play against the Lakers front court. The Cavs have the size to play in the front court, but against the Magic they didnt have the back court to defend the inside out game. That wouldnt be nearly the issue against the Lakers, who also had a lot of issues with the inside out game. The Magic got A LOT of wide open shots that they simply missed. Those missed open shots were the difference in every game except game 1.
