Can any team in the Eastern Conference beat the Cavs?
by Da`Vince “Dino” Wright
Can any team in the Eastern Conference beat the Cavaliers? Well the answer is.. NO! Cleveland is hands down the best team in the east. Look at who`s next. Nobody. Im not a LeBron fan at all. The Cavs are a stacked team across the board. Let`s take a look at 4 teams that can push the Cavs for their limits.
Miami Heat
The Heat has some pretty good players. LeBron has won a championship with DeWayne Wade and Chris Bosh but stopping him would be an undaunted task. Deng matches up well against LeBron but limited minutes always hamper his 4th quarter production against LeBron.
Toronto Raptors
Could give them a run, but I only see them losing in 5 games easily. Young and talented they just don1t have the veteran leadership to compete with the Cavs.
Boston Celtics
Head Coach Brad Stevens unleashed the dogs against the Cavs last year. Marcus Smart can guard LeBron but he`s spending way too much time on being a knucklehead instead of being a professional.
The Celtics should allow David Lee to play his game because he`s the only champion on the roster winning a title with Golden state. You have to remember when Draymon Green disappeared during the final, David Lee was the catalyst for the turn around last year.
Chicago Bulls
The ONLY team in the east that match up well across the board. Jimmy Butler can play with these guys. He`s a proven start that can score and defend. PG Derek Rose is the key. If he`s healthy the point guard match between Kyrie Irvin and D`Rose is an awesome ticket in person or on network TV.
Let`s see how this all play out! Tyron Lue has his hands full with this cast of characters.
