That being said, I hate LA too. I hate the Lakers. Sure, what they've accomplished is great, but it's true that in Boston anyone will poop on someone for mentioning the Lakers.
But let's talk about today. The Cavs have definitely impressed me. Larry Hughes gives Lebron some help on the floor and takes a lot of the weight of carrying the team off of his shoulders. Larry is a solid threat with his shot, and that's the reason we have seen Lebron develop the way he has. I was watching the C's game last night, and I noticed a no look pass from Lebron which was beautiful and split 2 C's defenders. I remember Lebron trying to win the game for himself the past 2 years, but now he's matured and understands that he has to wait for the game "to come to him," if you know what I mean... He's letting other guys make the plays for him, while at the same time making some for himself. The Cavs are definitely one of the strongest in the East, behind the Pistons. They will definitely make a huge run this year.

True Larry is a very big help to LeBron, BUT his shot is not a danger. 27.9% from three last year is not anything to be shaking in your boots about. That being sad, Hughes is a playmaker who can get his own shot (more likely its a lay-up) or set up his teammates. Hughes give Cleveland 2 playmakers which takes the pressure off LeBron to try to make something work when nothings there. I agree Schill, the Cavs are a solid team in the East and are a force and are on a GREAT winning streak.
