Depends. They certainly look great but Are the Cavs as good as they look or do they only look good because they play weak teams in the East?
They'll win it all if they can stay healthy unlike last years finals. Sent from my BLU LIFE ONE X using Tapatalk
The only difference with this years Cleveland team, is depth. I believe they lost a couple of key bench players. If healthy last year, they win it all. This year their bench is not as deep, which could make it harder to win it all. Toronto is done, they will be swept by the Cavs.
It's a combination of both, they should be taking care of inferior competition. When they matchup against the better teams the games will be closer but they have the best player in the NBA which normally is the difference maker in close games.
Interesting, Simmons has been pushing to go to the Lakers for that shoe deal. I wonder if there will be bad blood if Simmons goes to Philly.
I disagree entirely. The Cleveland team last year was light years weaker than this year and it is showing big time. Last year, Verajo went down, Irving went down, Love went down. They relied solely on LeBron James. The series were much tougher due to the injuries and LeBron was worn out because of it. They then had to go into Golden State and beat the Warriors. Last year, Mozgov was in the starting lineup. He rarely sees any playing time now. The lineup consists now of LeBron, Irving, Love, Thompson, and JR. Shumpert, Channing Frey, Mozgov, Delladova, etc, are all coming off the bench. The Cavs are playing at a level rarely seen. They are shooting better than Golden State. Are completely healthy. Are rested. And are playing as a complete team. This team is built to score and has a very very good bench behind them.
Am I the only one that thinks the Cavs series isn't worth watching lol? Sent from my BLU LIFE ONE X using Tapatalk
I'm leaning that way as well. If it's another blow out it'll just become background noise for me while I surf the internet or play a computer game. Luckily the Mets and nats play tonight so I'm not forced into watching it
every year the NBA has this bizarre scheduling so they can stretch the playoffs out as long as possible.
