Kevork Djansezian/Getty ImagesWhen I look at the way the NBA season has been turning out this year, It seemed as if I mistakenly said that the Cavs were not the best team in the NBA, nor that they were "built" for the playoffs. It looks like I'm eating my own words. However,?my friend wrote that article because he St. Louis Rams jersey
is a?Lakers fan.? So I'm Sorry to the city of Cleveland and their fans about my friend.As the season continues to unfold, one team has really caught my eye. This team is the Cleveland Cavaliers. Why? Maybe it's because they have the best record in the NBA at 36-11 after tonight's?beating of the lowly Minnesota Timberwolves at home with a 109-95 victory. Also it could be their six game winning streak that they are on with impressive wins over some good teams such as Oklahoma City, Miami, Toronto, and the Los Angeles Lakers, ?or their 8-2 record over their past 10 games.The truth is these Cavaliers are "built" for the playoffs, and these are all the reasons why they have caught my eye as of late. They are 2-0 this year against Kobe and the Los Angeles Lakers which is a sweep of the season series. They have the second best starting lineup in the NBA in my book because the Lakers starting five are pretty tough but it could go either way. Also thier bench is the best in the league and LeBron is playing like the MVP.The Cavaliers starting lineup includes: Mo Williams, Anthony Parker, LeBron, J.J. Hickson, and Shaq. The best bench in the league includes: Anderson Varejao, Delonte West, Daniel Gibson, Leon Powe, Jawad Williams, Jamario Moon, and the big fella Zydrunas Ilgauskas. It's tough to Tennessee Titans jersey
argue that these Cavs are not built for the playoffs.Many will say that the Cavs are not "built" for the playoffs because they have never won a title. Well they have alot better starting lineup and bench they did when they went to the Finals and got swept by Spurs. They had Larry Hughes starting during that time. Now they have a better guard in Mo Williams. They had Drew Gooden, instead of Hickson, Powe, or Varejao. Lets not forget about Sasha Pavlovic an Wally Szczerbiak instead of Delonte West and Anthony Parker. Also they had Ben Wallace instead of Shaq.So my reasons for why the Cavs will win the NBA Finals this year:1) Their starting lineup is stacked and once they get into a flow they are hard to stop2)Have the best bench in the league and good bench play gets you far in the playoffs3) LeBron has improved his overall game and outside jumper since the Finals, and Conference Finals4) They have made it to either the Conference Finals, Semifinals, or Finals in four straight years5) LeBron is playing like the MVP and is hungry and will get his teammates hungry as well6) They have beaten some of the toughest teams in the league, including sweeping the Lakers in the season series with a total domination of the Lakers on Christmas Day.So there you have it: The Cleveland Cavaliers are my pick to Washington Redskins jersey
win the NBA Championship this year and LeBron will get the monkey off his back as well as re sign with the Cavaliers this off season.Again I apologize for my friend and am sorry to the city of Cleveland and its fans because this team is definitely "built" for the playoffs.
