the NBA season is here!!

The Cleveland Cavaliers won the tip of and won the game. Last night started out the "post lebron era" with a HUGE win against the Eastern Conference Champions Boston Celtics. Did anyone notice the first thing the Cav's did when they got the ball? They RAN A PLAY!! The team that would give LBJ the ball and have him dribble out the clock, drive to the hope or drive and kick out for a last second shot. It's crazy what happens when you play TEAM basketball. Now I am not going to sit here and tell you that the Cav's are going to be an elite team and win 55 games. Is it possible that the Cavs are better than what everyone predicted? Or are we a lottery team like everyone on ESPN has predicted? I personally think that they will be competing for a 8th seed in the playoffs at the end of the season.

As a fan, I am completely satisfied with a season like that. How could you not be? We lost one of the top 3 or 4 players in the league. Are expectations as Cleveland Cavaliers fans have been set so high, so of course we want to win 60 games and be a number 1 seed. But what would be wrong with an 8th seed? It would show the league that this team should be taken for real.

Am I writing right now on a little high from last nights win? Yeah, probably. But I do believe in our team. I believe in our Coach, Owner, and Team. And you should too!

God Bless Cleveland....... Please?

reading this post again months later, makes me realize that I was completely wrong ha
