The Cleveland Cavaliers are the hottest team in the NBA right now. Since Jan 13, the day LeBron James returned from his two week recovery vacation in Miami, the Cleveland Cavaliers have gone 19-5. They are tied with the Atlanta Hawks with the best record in the NBA during that span.
Cleveland is also outscoring its opponents by an average of 11 points per night.
In addition, the Cavs have the best offensive rating (110.9) and the 10th best defensive rating (100.3). In summary, when LeBron James has been healthy this season, the Cleveland Cavaliers have played — and looked — like the best team in the NBA.
And I’m not even sure if that’s really debatable at this point.
With a healthy Kyrie Irving, Kevin Love and LeBron, there’s not much in the NBA — if anything at all — that can stop this Cavs team.
The Cleveland Cavaliers are primed to win an NBA Championship, here are a few reasons why.
