Right now, all the fuss is around New Jersey and their 12 game winning streak, but Cleveland has quietly rung off 8 in a row of their own. LeBron is playing out of his mind lately, and Flip is becoming a solid 2nd option. This team is doing many things well right now.
I got to agree with the Cavs beating the Mavs and the heat pretty easily they are doing really well. Especially with Lebron scoring 47 agains the Heat
The Cavaliers are one of the best teams in the NBA when they play like a team and have a good shooting day.I think they will atleast get to the second round in the playoffs. As for the winning streak, the Cavs have been on winning and losing streaks this whole year, so I am used to it. One week they win every game and the next they lose every game.LeBron has been really good lately, he has been proving why he is an all-star.Flip has been solid, although I wish he was more of a threat on the free throw line.Getting Hughes back will be huge.
Big game vs my Nets..it will be interesting to watch two good teams on a roll against each other..may the best team win.

They thought it was, so he kept playing, but then it started bothering him, so he got some more X-Rays and they found out he broke a bone in his hand. He has been playing this whole season (since the preseason when he "sprained" his finger) with a broken bone his his hand, he is really tough. He even did really good and put up some numbers for having an injury.
Alrite, look, Cavs are very good team, but nowhere close to an elite team. Only elite teams are Dallas, Detroit, and San Antonio, and MAYBE Phoenix if you want to include them. Elite teams win on the road.

This thread is a month old, did you even read it before you posted? He was talking about their strong push at the end of the regular season. That being said, I believe that the Cavs have the pieces in place and the talent to beat any team in the league. Whether or not they can beat them in a 7 game seris is another thing. Time will tell.
