Most stacked roster in the league.

Highest payroll by far in the league.

Colluded super team playing in a historically weak conference.

If they fail to win the title, it'll be the biggest choke job in NBA history.

Bran will never enter the top 10 if they lose.

:lol

Irving was injured and Love has been minimized by Bran so that Bran's legacy can look better. Bran did the same thing in the 2011 finals and ended up losing because Wade was going to be the finals MVP.

The Cavs have THREE FRANCHISE players. Forget all-stars.

How are they a super-team? :oldlol:

Irving and Love had never even made the playoffs before last season. A big reason for that is they are both atrocious defenders. Don't get me wrong, they are good players, but that's all they are. Good players who haven't led a team anywhere in their careers. The Cavs' payroll is irrelevant. Salary has nothing to do with production, especially when players are overpaid (Tristan Thompson).

The Cavs are in the second tier of title contenders along with OKC. A team just won an NBA record 73 games, yet if the Cavs don't win it will be the biggest choke job in NBA history? You're trying WAY too hard.

The Twolves were actually 10th in the West that year. A Suns team with Goran Dragic, Eric Bledsoe only playing half a season, and a bunch of role players had a better record than the Kevin Love-led team.

He's at best a 2nd option on a championship-caliber team.

Yeah, the west was brutal for sure. Love is like Bosh in that he's a good player but not a centerpiece for a title contender. Also like Bosh he's having trouble adjusting to a new role, but the difference is Love is a terrible defender. Bosh was able to make it work because of his defense, which has always been highly underrated. Bosh is arguably the best PnR defender in the league, Love is arguably one of the worst.

Irving is also a bad defender. It's tough to win a championship when 2 of your best 3 players are bad defenders. The Heat's "big 3" in contrast were all good to great defenders.

ive always maintained that cleveland would be better off stacked with elite defensive personell rather than love and irving, and got trolled in last years playofs for it. But Lebron wanted to stack his teams up with biggest "stars" to give himself best chance.. cant say im not enjoying the outcome.

He literally does NOTHING well on defense. Poor lateral movement, poor range, poor instincts, average at best post defense, poor effort, and zero rim protection.

Lebron is at worst an above average defender and he's BY FAR the best defender among the big 3. Calling him a garbage defender is absurd. There's not a single NBA coach who would agree with you. He is still capable of playing elite defense.

What about Irving? I suppose your going to call him a good defender too?

I never said he wasn't a good rebounder. That's different than being a good defender, even though rebounding is considered a defensive stat.

The fact that you're actually trying to portray Kevin Love as a good defender is cringeworthy. You also keep ignoring Irving's defense, obviously because you can't figure out a way to spin it as being good.

Love and Irving are bad defenders. Nobody (except you) even disputes this, not even legit Cavs fans. Love and Irving being superstars is also exclusive to you.

But real shit, this time ESPN isn't playing to that tune this year. He literally is out of excuses. He picked his coach and his teammates.

LeBron isn't expected to win this year. Golden State just had the best regular season ever in NBA history and the previous 4 times in NBA history that hard the next best records in regular season history all won the NBA Finals that year. The Cavs have history against them completely.

But we're getting WAY ahead of ourselves. We have to play the Pistons Sunday first and deal with that.

True, but it doesn't matter.


Colluded super team playing in a historically weak conference.
The East was deeper than the West this year. They had 10 teams finish with a .500 or better record, two teams won 55+ games, and four other teams won 48 games. How, exactly, is the East "historically weak" this year?


If they fail to win the title, it'll be the biggest choke job in NBA history.
No, it wouldn't. The Warriors just set the single season record for most wins in a season and the Spurs went 67-15 and would've won a few more games if they hadn't punted a few games the last couple of months of the season to rest everyone.


Bran will never enter the top 10 if they lose.
Not winning a championship this year would not be an indictment on LeBron's career. This season features arguably the greatest team ever and one of the greatest defensive teams ever. Neither are LeBron's team.

Of course the Cavs are not going to win the title. First of all the Warriors and Spurs are way better and secondly have you seen the Cavs plays this season? Didn't look good imo. Kyrie has never looked like last year's Kyrie, their defence is weak, their bench is shitty and Bron has slowed down a bit too.

To be fair, the team that just won the most games in NBA history should clearly be overwhelming expected to win the title.

Wrong. That'd the be Warriors.

Wrong. That'd be the Cavs and their three franchise level talents.


True, but it doesn't matter.


Convenient.

The East was deeper than the West this year. They had 10 teams finish with a .500 or better record, two teams won 55+ games, and four other teams won 48 games. How, exactly, is the East "historically weak" this year?

The east is a joke and only one team even has a remote possibility of going to the finals. Grow up.

No, it wouldn't. The Warriors just set the single season record for most wins in a season and the Spurs went 67-15 and would've won a few more games if they hadn't punted a few games the last couple of months of the season to rest everyone.

Exactly the point, numb nuts. While draining themselves to break a record, teams like the Cavs were resting players periodically and Bran was going to Miami for his HGH treatments.

Not winning a championship this year would not be an indictment on LeBron's career. This season features arguably the greatest team ever and one of the greatest defensive teams ever. Neither are LeBron's team.

Are you still in fall of 2014? Because then this would make sense.

Warriors are the favorite. Cavs aren't. You can't choke if you aren't favored to win.

Not a single person in their unbiased mind actually believes the Cavs and their three franchise level talents/highest payroll in the league aren't the favorites.

Cut the shit.

The Warriors went all out for a regular season accomplishment because they knew beating that healthy super team was unlikely.

kevin love wouldve led the twolves to a playoff spot in most times and conferences. the team won 48 games ffs. They wouldve been 4 / 5 seed in todays east and 3 / 4 seed in 2014 east..

you needed 49 wins to make the playoffs in the 2014 west. It was beyond stacked.

When the **** did this happen?

From his rookie year until he joined team LeBron here are the TWolves win totals:

Love's team would've made the playoffs in 2014 east .. despite him being surrounded by poor talent in one of the more loaded conferences of all time. Given more help and a lesser conference, Love would be leading a perennial mediocre playoff team. Not bad for your third option.

i agree, he is third option though. I dont think lamar odom or horace grant could do what Love did leading that minny team to 40 wins in that conference with that type of help. Yea he doesnt fit with bron because hes been largely stripped of his post creation, and the two just seem to be on a mental disconnect, but hes still a great player to have as your third best.

See, this is the problem. Being productive as a 1st option on a meiocre team does not necessarily make someone a good 3rd option. Some players just don't have the ability to adapt and thrive in a different role. Before joing the Cavs, Love had been "the man" for his entire basketball career. Irving is the same. All his life he's been a primary ball handler and scorer.

This is why you can't just throw talent together and assume it will amount to a cohesive team. Look at the Heat. They struggled to adapt to their roles. Even when they were winning titles they were always a flawed team. They made it work partly because Lebron and Wade are all time greats, but also because Wade and Bosh were able to successfully transition into a different role. I don't know if Irving and Love have that kind of adaptability.

40 wins, maybe not, but between 15-31, which was the number of wins he had every other season in Minnesota wouldn't be that difficult to achieve

Irving was injured and Love has been minimized by Bran so that Bran's legacy can look better. Bran did the same thing in the 2011 finals and ended up losing because Wade was going to be the finals MVP.

The Cavs have THREE FRANCHISE players. Forget all-stars.
This. Wolves built around Love for years until they knew they were losing him. Cavs started building around Irving as their star before LeBron came back.

If anything, following up the home losses to the Celtics and T-Wolves then crushing the Spurs once and beating them another time right after that to end the season should really just tell you that, when locked in and focus, there's not another team in the NBA on their level.

The Cavs get to REST during virtually the ENTIRE east playoffs. There is ZERO parity in that conference because of the COWARDLY colluding. You know it. I know it. Everyone knows it. Bran has stacked the deck so highly in his favor that the east playoffs become a time for his team to literally COAST while the west beats the living hell out of each other.

Warriors, Spurs, Clippers, and OKC are all EASILY better than any team other than the Cavs...and they get to beat the shit out of each other while the cowardly Cavs get to wait on them.

LeBron took a weaker Cavaliers team to the Finals... so not making it this year would be proof that he's scared of losing 3 finals in a row/ playing the Warriors or Spurs in the finals. He must make it to the finals and then win it all if he wants to be a top 10 GOAT.
