2. Cleveland Cavaliers

Starting Five: Kyrie Irving, J.R. Smith, LeBron James, Kevin Love, Timofey Mozgov 

Starting Five Rating: 22

We saw what this team was capable of when they were without both Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love in the starting lineup, they kind of still got to the NBA Finals, even though most of that was thanks to LeBron James.

But you get what I’m trying to say.

Any team with LeBron is pretttttty good – add in Irving and Love, both of whom are great players in their own right, and it’s not even fair. No argument here.
