Varejao is a good hustle guy, but his entire career he has been a bad man and weak side defender. Its now obvious that Varejao after the surgery has lost a step that he won't ever get it back.

It also looks like Lebron is on the decline mentally, and has peeked physically . I think we have already seen the best of Lebron

Someone has absolutely no idea what they're talking about.

Its pretty obvious they won't be top 4 in the east. its clear the Cleveland are not good and one of the worst defensive teams in the NBA and their are alot of teams better than the Cleveland in the east

By someone, i think you are referring to Dat2U, who doesn't know what they are talking about.

Like most have already said, and its clear, the Cavs are one of the worst if not the worst defensive team in the eastern conference.

I honestly don't think the Cavs will make the playoffs. This without irony or a joke, this is a real concern. Even if Love, Lebron, and Irving find a way to play as a team, they still don't have the chops or personel to play average level defense as a team.

Cavs are a joke.

Cavs will make the playoffs. STOP IT!

I don't think its a foregone conclusion at this point.

Not if they play the Raptors. Regardless of seeding.

Just like with the Wolves, the Cavs defense doesn't look good at all.

Irving and Lebron don't look like a good pairing, but they should get some chemistry in a couple of weeks.

Will Cavs have home court advantage in the 1st round?

With the the way they are playing? Nope.

They have too much top end talent for them not to get a top seed.

yes, and I still don't think it will even be that close. Cleveland is easily a top 4 team in the east by the end of the season.

For years, Kevin Love has been called out for putting up empty stats. the Kevin Love supporters keep making excuses for him. Love has talent around him and his team is still horrible, just like in Minnesota. Can the Kevin Love supporters finally admit that he puts up empty stats and does little to contribute to winning.....

Going back to the OP. just like the Dwight Lakers, the Cavs are going to struggle all year and barely make the playoffs.

They are in the east...they'll definitely make the playoffs.

In the west...I would say they'd definitely NOT make the playoffs. Even the the non-playoff teams in the west are more often than not beating most of the 'contenders' in the east. It's that lopsided.

Right now, only Toronto, Chicago, and Washington would actually have a chance of making the playoffs out west.
