The playoffs for the Cleveland Cavaliers were seen as a microcosm of their season.
Despite a roster overhaul in February, the results in the playoffs mirrored those of the team throughout the year: pushed to seven games by the Indiana Pacers and Boston Celtics, a sweep of the Toronto Raptors and now a sweeping loss in the Finals to the Golden State Warriors.
Cleveland now has less than three weeks to figure out what went wrong, how this team can improve and what the future holds -- with or without LeBron James.
