The Cavs experimented with a new lineup Saturday night in Miami, starting Kevin Love at center and Iman Shumpert at the four. The pair combined for 11 total points.
The first test-run of this lineup did not go well, as the Heat crushed the Cavs 122-101.
There are only 13 games remaining, but the Cavs still are trying out different mixes and matches this late in the season.
Dwyane Wade scored 24 points, Josh Richardson scored 19 off the bench, Joe Johnson and Goran Dragic each scored 18.
Hassan Whiteside came off the bench due to the Cavs starting Love at center, and the big man still had a big night, scoring 16 points and grabbing 13 boards.
LeBron James led the game in scoring with 26 points, but the Cavs trailed all night long.
The Cavs have Sunday off to rest and regroup before returning home to take on the Denver Nuggets.
