    Rebounding shouldn't be a problem. When Varejao is one of the better rebounders at this position. Love is pretty close to the best rebounding PF in the league. And LeBron is near the top of re bounders at SF usually getting around 7 a game.

    You wanna give credit to Wade, that's fair, he played well in the 2012 playoffs and stepped up in the last 4 games of the 2013 Finals.

    What does LeBron have to "thank" Bosh for? Missing most of the 2012 playoffs, where he put up a pedestrian 14 & 8? His sterling play in the 2013 playoffs, averaging 12 & 7 and getting abused by Hibbert and Duncan, capped off with his bagel in Game 7 of the Finals? I know, he grabbed a rebound over someone 5 inches shorter than him, besides that, otherworldly contribution, LeBron owes both of his titles solely to Bosh.

    eh, kinda a failure. It is Cleveland. They need to break a major curse for it to happen.

    Cle's first chip after 5 decades would be one of the greatest championships ever.

    MASSIVE FAILURE

    -it will ruin the legacy of Bran
    -further ruin the city of Cleveland

    If you are the self anointed best player in the game and you have a fairly talented team around you and you don't win a title in two of your final remaining "prime years" ... yes that's a disappointment.

    That's just how it is, if you want that mantle of being known as the best player in the game, you need to live up the billing.

    The Spurs too ... c'mon. Duncan is f**king thirty nine years OLD next season. Somebody grow some damn balls and take that trophy.

    If the Cavs fail to win a title within three years, it would be a huge failure.

    If the Cavaliers fail to win a title in two years it's what I expect and I wouldn't be surprised. Tunnel vision is not here in this soul.

    It's funny how underrated wild thing and delly are on defense. and Andys random blood clot will surely be a lingering injury.

    Don't teams need to be pretty close to a top 10 defense to win a title historically?

    I don't see that with this team as it currently stands.

    Bulls will murder their interior and inability to cover our shooters.

    Andy has played 2 seasons out of 10.

    The last 4 years he has only played more than half a season once.

    Unless they nearly completely shelve him, its unlikely he will be there in the playoffs.

    Wishful thinking, his injuries are not related. Also i hate to burst your bubble but the cavs were ranked 12th defensively last year before the added bran so hoping they won't be top 10 this year also wishful thinking. Andy has a better chance of staying healthy than rose. funny you complain about people wishing injury on players and you do the same thing with Andy.

    Honestly the team really doesn't look that great to me.

    I don't even have them winning the ECF this year.
