    Odds are the Celtics will be perennial 60 win team for years. 76'ers have a chance also

    Depends how long you've known the Cavs. Their natural state of being is doormat. The LeBron period is but an interruption of their usual terribleness.

    Starting next season, Cavs will revert to the laughingstock that I know and love. They've even been nice enough to give us a sneak preview the last couple of weeks.

    There's no way that the cavs can keep up with the athleticism of other top teams for a 7 game series ... Especially for multiple rounds.

    The only way the cavs do anything of note is that they get insanely hot from 3 .

    It took them an OT and 140 points to beat Min tonight , who IMO isn't as good as Boston or TOR .

    They've got a great player , but a 1 man show can only take you so far .... Especially if your pieces aren't defensive studs .

    Well the Cavs have an almost entirely new lineup.

    Well if I'm not mistaken, Hood/Hill can defend or have shown the ability to do it. It's a new season for Cavs.
