The Cavs have been awesome and surprising to me, as I didn't think they'd be this good. I thought that'd win about 55 games and finish third or fourth, with the Magic rising this season and being up there with the Celts.

You all think the Cavs are a real championship chance or just pretenders that will fall to any one of the heavyweights (Lakers, Celts, Magic, Spurs)

Lebron makes them a true contender. I wouldn't be surprised to see them go all the way to a ring. But it's only because of Lebron, because, without him, they wouldn't even make the playoffs.

Still, I think they're a contender, and, as such, it wouldn't be a shock if they win the ring, but they're not the top contender (a spot that belongs to LA) or even the top team in the east (Boston should claim that title til somebody beats them in the playoffs).

if they didn't have HCA I'd say no. but since they do I say they're going to be hard to beat.

I mean WE almost beat them....

Every team has at least one team they don't handle well. The Cavs have Home Court Advantage because they are a great team, plain and simple. Just hard to tell how they'd fair against another great team for at least four games straight
