Me too but to hear the national media you'd think it made Cleveland unbeatable!
It's still 17 to 11!!!!

If the Wiz are healthy, there shouldn't be much of a problem.

Agreed. Cleveland, if anything, looks MUCH worse this year, even before the trade, than last year, and let's face it, last year they were arguably the worst team to ever play in the Finals.

I love how LeBron and everyone into Cleveland (fans and players alike) talked about this season as if it was a given they'd win it all. They'll be lucky to make it to round 2!

Enjoy LeBron while you can, Cleveland...soon he will be in NY or LA or some other major market.

I never understood this. Why would he leave? Because Sports Guy keeps saying so? It's not like he can't milk Nike for as much money as he wants in Cleveland. And he can make more money with the Cavs than with any other team. And he's the king there. And he's playing in his hometown, in front of all his friends and family. And he can do what Jordan did for the Bulls. If he came to NY next year, I don't even think he'll be the most popular sports figure in the city. Maybe #2 after Jeter. Maybe even #3 after Jeter and Arod. OTOH, in Cleveland, he's unquestionably THE MAN.

I personally would love to see it because I live a block away from MSG, but I just don't think it's going to happen.
