People can say whatever they want, but Cleveland has gone 10-0 vs these 3 teams thus far:

Detroit (44-38):
13th ranked offense (106.1 ORTG)
12th ranked defense (105.5 DRTG)

Atlanta (48-34):
22nd ranked offense (105.1 ORTG)
2nd ranked defense (101.4 DRTG)

Toronto (56-26):
5th ranked offense (110.0 ORTG)
11th ranked defense (105.2 DRTG)

Only thing is Toronto is down Valanciunas, but Biyombo is playing lights out too.

its a legit 10-0 run against pretty good competition.

The East is frickinh horrible and boring to watch. The Cavs beat the teams they were suppose to and everyone acts like they're the Dream Team.

This 10-0 run is impressive. Good teams. No great, but no horrible either

It's fair to question the level of competition but they're dominating at a historic level by average MOV this year at +14.4

No one should be writing them off against the Warriors at this point and they would be favored against the Thunder (and Spurs had they made it to this far).

Time to abolish the conferences and top 16 teams go into the playoffs.

Sure. There would have been 9 teams from the "East" and only 7 teams from the "West" this year.

If the Cavs go undefeated, they're playing shite teams, but no one bats an eye at Golden State playing Houston and Portland, two powerhouses.

Like the Cavs, the Raptors were a top-five offensive team in the regular season. But while Cleveland has taken their offense to a new level in the playoffs, Toronto has mostly slogged through two series and the first two games of this one. Through 16 games, the Raptors rank 12th offensively in the postseason, having scored less than a point per possession.


Toronto has been awful in the playoffs. If you want to crown Cleveland, then crown 'em.

This is why Cleveland fans are the worst. That entire town should be cut off the state, pushed into the lake and set on fire.

Atlanta held a lead in the 4th in 3 of the 4 games, just fell apart down the stretch.

Very impressed with this run Cleveland is on, they've finally started playing a truly dominant style and it's breathtaking to watch.

That being said, they have the highest payroll in the NBAm the 2nd highest payroll in NBA history, and LeBron. I should hope they'd eventually start dominating for all Gilbert is paying in luxury taxes.

Credit to Lue for getting the most out of them though. He's got their offense humming right now.
