It is virtually impossible to summarize the Cleveland Vs. Toronto Game, considering that I did not sit for the entire contest (lack of interest). But I can give a very educated input as to why the Cavs are in a 0-2 hole right now!
Final Score: 101-91 - Raptors.
The Cavaliers are obviously uncomfortable. Z is not used to coming off the bench, which is a minor disruption in the rotation. Anthony Parker is not prepared to play with LeBron and he lacks the defensive edge that Delonte West had. The Cavs clearly miss him.
There is no solid PG behind Mo Williams (and he seems uncomfortable without Delonte beside him), which means that Gibson is the only option off the bench. Tonight he had 12-points going 4-8 at the arc, which isn't bad at all. The bench added 26-points overall and that is excellent for the Cavs, but still they lost....??
The rotational problems will continue to be a hassle with the Cavs. There was no pre-season for this team, so their preseason is happening now. The flu and injuries caused the team to never have the early opportunity to play together, so now they must suffer in the regular season.

Mike Brown has no idea how to hide his flaws. He sucks as head coach. Yes you are a defense first coach, but on the offensive end he does not know a THING! The Cavaliers lost their Offensive Coach this summer to Detroit, which means Brown is left to coach alone. I say fire him now, and give a new coach time to figure out a real rotation.
It's all going to be tough, but they will pull it off. Last year the Club started of 1-2 and still went on to win 66 games.
STATS:
LeBron - 23-points 11-rebounds 12-assists.
Varejao - 0/5 FG - 2-Points
Shaq - 12-points 7-rebounds
Mo Will - 15-points
Team FG - Whopping 34%.

There is much room for improvement! Lets remain optimistic. "ONE GOAL."
