In Defense Of Iman Shumpert

We’re about three weeks into the NBA season, and things are looking good for the Cleveland Cavaliers. They sport one of the best records in the NBA and lead the Eastern Conference. They seem extremely comfortable playing together, and the only concern is an irritating ability to take their foot off the gas pedal that has been a characteristic of this team ever since LeBron James returned. For the most part the players, coaches, and even the fans seem happy.

There has been one player with whom fans expressed displeasure in the early going, and that’s backup guard Iman Shumpert.
