The Cavs didn't collapse, and just maybe showed that they're going to be a much different team when they face the Raptors. By the time James checked back in, the Cavs had pushed their lead to 10 and only had to withstand one more charge to silence the Pacers. Not only did the Cavs survive without James, they thrived and potentially gained some confidence. His presence made the Cavs better at both ends, and he brought an interior toughness that had been missing against the Pacers. Fortunately for the Cavs, James has been indestructible.
