Yes they are. Atkinson took the French team to the gold medal round and narrowly lost to a stacked USA team. He gets the most out of what he has and he has loads of talent. He can make the Cavs a consistent contender for the next 5yrs.

It’s easy to see how the cavs are doing it, resting mitchell all game until it’s close or time to close out, then let the dawg off the leash, they let the bigs and bench eat 1-3 qtrs then let the guards loose after everybody’s worn out. You want to beat cleveland, force them to play mitchell heavy early, wear out the bigs, and there won’t be any gas left in the tank on either end, grind em down at the start and hope the benches can compete

It’s not the same team though… sure the players might be the same but they’re playing in a totally different way. Faster pace more passing. It’s a different team by far

If CAVS don’t reach at least the 2nd round all this regular season things will go out the window but we shall wait & see

You know how this works in the NBA. There are levels to this. They will have to make it through a couple of seven game series. Lose in ECF or whatever, learn, re-tool, get hungry, get revenge, etc.

He isnt isnt mentioning mobley and garlands breakouts he hasnt even watched them its like reading the summary on the back of a book and writing a report you know the result not the fine details

It took 13 and 0 just for them to put them on ESPN like this but the Cavs love being The underdogs

SAS was being kind by not answering, not sidestepping, because the answer is hell no they aren’t a threat to beat Boston.

Bunch of idiots in the comments lmao, SAS ain’t wrong with what he said, a 13-0 start in a 82 game season don’t mean nothing, plus did anyone of y’all pick the cavs as a legit contender?

Strephen A’s structure to rip someone to shreds, like the KD clown comments:
1. Say he’s not going to be petty by engaging in similar conversation.
2. Throw the usual smoke screen of how good he is… Blah, blah, blah.
3. Then stoops even lower with his comments. Sooo predictable. Equivalent to a corporate high paid executive bully ????
