the fall of the "once mighty Cavs" has been enjoyable. i'll get to feeling sorry for them at some point...

but not just yet...:heh:

We are just doing what Magic said he wanted for the lakers back in 2014! Lose as many games as possible!

What is the point of winning games this year anyways? We already know the outcome...The 2nd winner outside of GS is the team that gets the #1 pick, followed by the #2 pick, etc

In fact, now that I think about it.

Botslayer might be dorianro

How do you explain the more that 50% of people who picked the cavs not to make the finals? This didn't change the next year either...

Ok.

You are basing everything off a poll taken in 2014 before they played a single game together. And honestly I was not posting here much at that time. So you might have me in year 1. Even then, unless you can list off who voted and what teams they voted for, polls are completely meaningless. You need to find quotes from respected posters.

And Really, those opinions only further my point that the Cavs were not a super team.

But, 2015 and beyond?

It was all about Cleveland.

Here is discussion if that helps...Looks like nobody even had Cleveland as even the 2nd best team in the east in the playoffs

Rank the teams left Conference semifinals edition

here's the problem, though...

you could the most horrific win/loss total the league's ever seen, and it STILL doesn't guarantee you'll get the #1 pick...

all about the ping-pong balls...

James is averaging 26.4ppg, 7.8rpg, 7.3apg, 1.5spg, and 0.8bpg.

While shooting 50%, 31%, and 76%.

He sucks, right @lebron23james?

Please post something, anything, from a semi-intelligent poster from the last 3 years that says anything other than Cleveland is the team to beat.

Because your post that got this conversation started said that every year most people were picking against Cleveland to win the East. And that is a flat out lie.
