Who would think a home win against the worst franchise over the last decade or more could be so exciting for them!
man the cavaliers have some great fans. every day it's a full house even though they were on a long losing streak. man if the rockets were that bad, there would be no one at the center.
CLE average record last 2 years: 64-18 MIA record this year: 38-14 Looks his new supporting cast isn't doing any better than his old one.
Or how about you explain how Cavs last year were better then Lebron having, Miller, Bosh, Wade on the Heat this year? The fact is, Lebron was worth about 50/60 wins for the Cav's last year, and would be on any team. Just in the playoffs, you need help, and the Cavs gave Lebron no help. This year, he has a lot of help, and they should go pretty far. But this is a two year building process for the Heat, and they need to cover some holes, which they will over a couple of years.
If they're so much better, why don't they have a better record? The fact is, they're probably the most underachieving team in the NBA. The Cavs were tied 2-2 with the Celtics before LBJ quit AT HOME. The Cavs followed his lead. The Cavs were the better team all year, so who knows what would have happened had their best player not quit on them in the playoffs.
I don't believe he quit, I saw the games, and he played his best. Only bitter Cleveland fans, and haters think otherwise. Miami is a two year project according to pay Riley, and will take two years to reach their full potential, so it's really early stages for them. They are also new team, learning to play together, and since there bad start, have been one of the top teams in the NBA. Plus both Haslem and Miller have been injured for a decent time. In fact the last 30 games the big three have all played in, they have only lost 2 games.
Boston managed to win 66 games in their first season w/their big 3. If LBJ's support was so terrible, it should be easy for him to do better, now that he has so much help. Someone is underachieving big time.
