I don’t think anyone expects the cavs to roll over in the playoffs, but right now they’re at a level where we sweep them, so the have a long ways to come back to making it competitive. Lebron getting old, he can’t make up for an old roster that he destroyed like he could in Miami.

That team can’t defend a beach ball so just getting out of the first round against a Milwaukee, Washington or philly will be tough on them.

Yep.
Cavs 26th in PF taken and Raps sadly 4th.
Cavs 6th in PF drawn and Raps only 15th

It's not by chance, it's scripted.

We can beat them if the game is a field goal competition. But we can't beat the Refs + LeBron.

Pulled from the Cavs board.

This is nuts watching LeBron on these plays.

I'm not ready to write off the Cavs yet. If LeBron decides at any point that he's going to GAF again, the Raps and everyone else in the East should correctly be very scared.

Lebron with a vintage buzzer beater with 1 second on the clock making a fadeaway over a stretched Butler.

Cavs are a pathetic team defensively but Lebron is still Lebron.

As long as he continues to play healthy I'll always be afraid of the Cavs.

They only shot 21 for 41 in 3s tonight. What’s there to be scared of?

Anyone who thinks we shouldn't be terrified of that line up come playoffs isn't thinking clearly. Yes they're having problems now. Love is injured and half the team isn't trying, Lebron most of all. That will change when the bright lights come on. These guys have nothing but champions up and down the roster. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

I'm shaking in my boots for the retirement home lineup

When I'm old and grey I want to go to this retirement home aka the **** fountain of youth

If that’s what it took them to win tonight in OT, they are still not playing very hard at all.

We go through this every year and every year LeBron still lays the smackdown on the Raptors anyway. Why wouldn't he do it again?

The only way Cleveland beats someone is if they outscore the other team. They don't care for the defensive end whatsoever. Fortunately, they ran into another team that doesn't either tonight.

We all know what LeBron can do. He's still not saving that defense. By the time Love comes back and IT "figures it out", it's going to be too late.

But who knows ? Strange things can happen... I really doubt it, though.
