[The Wizard of Moz]

The 32-15 #1 seed in the East. Your defending champion Cleveland Cavaliers!

Your Coach: Tyronn Lue (59-29)

At PG: The NBA's most clutch player. Kyridiculous is the only adjective that can properly describe him: Give it up for Kyrie Irving!

At SG: A man significantly more valuable to this team and around the league than Deron Williams: Iman Shrimpart!

At SF: The entertainment. Currently the prime suspect in the murder of Charles Barkley (RIP). Never one to let the dog days of January be boring: LeBron James!

[Sir'Dom Pointer]

That's a tough one. Either Dieng or Towns is going to abuse whoever guards them. RJ can't start at the 4 against Towns, it's not going to be pretty.

 

[The Wizard of Moz]

Champ is gonna drop knowledge on these young PUPS

just you wait...

 

[Real Deal]

Win or go home.

Oh wait that's in April/May.

Young energetic team.

Not feeling so great about this one.

 

[Jscc]

I'm sick of beating bad teams.

I'm sick of beating bad teams.

You're in luck, so are the cavs

 

[Walter White]

Can Kyrie and LeBron carry us. It's televised? Maybe they try harder?

I honestly don't feel confident. We have zero bench.

 

[wremy]

This is a fairly easy W

 

[Soar]

This is a fairly easy W

Have you seen us play lately?

I think the Washington Generals would give us some trouble.

This is a fairly easy W
