2. Cleveland Cavaliers: There is only one thing that makes the Cavaliers the second-best team in the East: LeBron James. Simply put, Bron Bron is one of the top-5 players in the NBA. Put almost any group of players beside him (see their championship run from two years ago) and James' team would succeed. With that being said, it doesn't hurt that the offensive (Delonte West, Wally Sczerbiak) and defensive (Ben Wallace) talent acquired in last season's late trade will have some more time to get acclimated to playing with King James.


i like it...just dont tell anyone on the general board :D

plus there is always the trade deadline to get even better and make a run at the celtics

they kind of underrated the best player in the world with that. There isn't a player you could swap with LeBron and have us ranked #2.

I highly doubt we'll be second after the regular season. We're not one of those teams that play 100% all the time, but rather save the best for playoffs...that's served us more or less well so I doubt we'll switch up
