It helps when you play a team that has no interest in defense. Read somewhere that the Cavs had 11 consecutive uncontested shots during a run last night, that is what you get when this piece replaced your best defenders>

I wouldn't have thought this at the beginning of the season, but IMO 1/5th of the way into the campaign this is clearly going to be a 6th-8th seed playoff team in the East if they can get and stay fairly healthy and if they avoid trading Love and/or Drummond without getting an immediate core piece(s) in return.
Coming off of back-to-back wins in very high scoring games against one of the most offensively talented teams in the league, the Cavs are still sitting at 4th in defensive efficiency through 15 games. They seem to be doing a great job of building a team identity and culture (no nonsense booting Porter out) and now have a nice core of about 7 guys under 28 that are either on rookie deals or reasonably modest second contracts. There's a lot to be optimistic about for several years IMO.

To Brian's point-
Cleveland Cavaliers’ Kyrie Irving trade still lopsided -- just not in way most originally thought: Chris Fedor
The Cavs -- who moved their record to 8-7 Friday night after beating Irving’s high-powered and title-hopeful Brooklyn Nets for the second time in three nights -- aren’t where they are today without the gutsy deal that was once considered a lopsided laugher.

I might watch tonight, Lebro might even snap an ACL for us.
Will you give me the Cavs and 26? The loser can't post for a month.
Brian,It's 6:54 you have to 7:55 to accept the bet.

Lost but competed very well. The Lakers pulled away late to win by 7.
Not surprised at all with how much "load management" was enacted last night.
