After falling to 0-2 this season, Cleveland spoke of how they miss the play of Delonte West.

"It definitely hurts us," Mo Williams said. "Look at what happened with (Kevin Garnett) with Boston last year, it doesn't matter the stature of the player, it is losing a valuable player. It's evident we miss him."

According to Brian Windhorst of the Plain Dealer, the team is acutely aware of West's absence because he is still practicing and traveling with the team but not yet able to take the floor for actual games.
