That's AT LEAST a top 10 back court in the league. How are we not title favorites?! So sick of everybody trying to temper expectations. Who is gonna beat us?!


Who's going to beat you ? Lol

bulls if rose stays healthy

Okc is way hungrier and arguably more talented

Sas can't count out

Lac has a chance

Gsw have a chance against anybody

Sitting there acting like its a lock because you have 2.5 superstars mean nothing .

Okc has just as many superstars and way more chemistry and a solid roster .

You put a 40 year old miller, dellavadova , and jones in a arguably top 10 sentence , gimme a break , could easily be one of the worst back courts for a 82 game season and finals push .

Lebron will give any team a chance,

But that's all it is as a chance by no means are the cavs heads and shoulders the best team in the league and the fact this roster has glaring holes and talent off the bench and reliability issues should cause for more concern then complete ignorance of the thought of not being beat .

yeah they will get to the conference finals at least. Should be happy with that. Will have to see how they play against the Bulls in the regular season before we can comment on the finals.

I think they will get 55-60 wins this season.

You are dangerously close to receiving a warning for trolling. Not only did you dig up a thread from weeks ago, but you offered absolutely nothing enlightening with your post.

I recommend steering clear of our board, or at least providing some substance next time.

by the way, we're 12 games in, I'd keep this thread bookmarked.

On this day in 2010 Heat were 8-6 then dropped another to be 8-7, eventually being 9-8 before a winning streak, that's 17 games. We seems to have more problems but we're much younger & have more moving parts.

Definitely a troll magnet, as is the 70 win thread. I guess it would be too much to ask the trolls to remember that not all Cavs fans were not on the "70 wins/we cant be beat" bandwagons.

just my 2 cents

That cavs front court is formidable yes, but chicago has a decent front court too (when healthy). The season is too early to tell anything for sure as in who will be the top contenders for the ecfs and who wouldn't be.

on another note, I am not too certain as to what is the missing link in this early season struggles. My only doubt is on the coaching staff that cleveland has esp. the rookie coach. I think if you had a good coach who is kinda the commander in chief of the team to rally the guys together, amalgamate them well into their roles and make them understand the value derived from running certain set plays and sharing the ball equally would be the one great step your team can take.

This coach will also have to spark the fire for the superstars like lebron/kyrie/love who are in essence the floor generals for lack of better words that need to control tempo and bring energy to the floor. Last night for example i seriously got the feeling that lebron only showed up in the 1st quarter after that he got deflated, like as though he lost his will to keep persevering...maybe i just made an error in this observation, but clearly lebron was not the lebron of Miami. When a superstar mentally checks out I wonder if that is read by his team-mates as oh we are not good enough for him or we are not performing well and negatively impacts team morale. And this is where the head coach comes in and tries to spark the fire and get his superstar rolling again and also to be honest I dont think lebron and this new head coach have a good relationship.

But as some one said, we are only 12 or so games into the season, so anything can happen and what goes down has to come up at some time, its too early to be saying anything is set in stone.
