Eh, you wishing for a lot. This team will be completely different come playoff time. We all know this. The only team I can see actually beating the Cavs in the East (IN PLAYOFF BASKETBALL) is the Bulls.

First, let me state that I pull for LeBron. I never understood the hate for the man.

Do you think he looks the same? To me, he's either lost a step or he's conserving energy for the playoffs. The Cavs have no rim protector. Their bench is okay, and Kyre/Love are still considered average defenders at best.

If I were the GM, I'd trade Waiters immediately. I would try do get Mozgov from Denver and try and find another wing defender. Marion can only give you so much off the bench. This way you can keep Thompson as a serviceable big off the bench and keep the rotations almost the same.

Chicago is just starting to get it together and when they do, they're coming out of the East.
