I contend the Cavs will win it all. Here is my reasoning: they have a dynamite eight man rotation with specialists and the worlds greatest player as well as a side kich who is the most explosaive player in the Eastern Conference. I am talking about LeBron and Kyrie. We have JR who is a catch and shoot genius who holds the ball a couple minutes a game and can get 30 points doing it, and we have a coach that knows how to deploy him. We have a stretch four who can rebound and is a great third option for the offense at 16 plus a game. We have a rim protector in Mozgov who intimidates opponents. We have the berst offensive rebounder in the lezgue in TT. We have Schump who is a great perimeter defender. We have Delly who Hubie Brown called the perfect backup for Kyrie Irving, a Tasmianian Devil in a basketball uniform. And we have a gerat coaching staff and a great GM.
This has a feel to it. This team only has eight guys who can play well in the system, but that is all you need. In games from January 15 until they clinched the two seed, the Cavs were 27-3 in games with one day of rest or more (what you get in the playoffs) with a plus 14 average scoring margin. By comparison the Warriors were about 23-7 with a plus eight scoring margin and the Spurs about the same. I believe this team, like the Buckeyes in football, is a team of destiny. Like the Buckeyes who had their Virginia Tech, the Cavs had the two weeks in December and january that was their Virginia Tech. I think this cities long drought for a championship will be over in June when they beat the Spurs.
