    Yes. If it were at home, I'd say by 50.

    Cavs should win by double digits. The Bulls are one of the worst teams in the league.

    Over/under Cavs 56.5 wins. That's where Vegas is at. Behind Golden State, Oklahoma City, San Antonio and Los Angeles Clippers. Honestly, the Cavs will sit their guys often, but it won't be Spurs style. I see them playing 2 of the big 3 in pretty much every game (barring injury) and there is more than enough fire power on the bench to win almost any given regular season game. Given the competitiveness (and average overall caliber) of the East, I think the Cavs hit the over on this number.

    I'd definitely bet that at least one of those West teams won't hit their number.

    With one of the conditions being that Andy stays healthy. In other words, something that is a near impossibility to happen.

    You really can't be that dense can you?

    Front page of ESPN: "Cavs cautious with Lebron's minutes" haha 38 min a game
  • Lovejoy1984
    Smokescreen.

    LBJ gonna play 82 games, and 38min a game. It's a done deal.

    And it begins......

    LET'S GO CAVS !!!

    My biggest concern is Lebron making it through the season healthy. Never had to say that in the past but back issues are very dicey.

    All these injuries are pissing off due to the fact I rather have Lebron rest many games this year. Kinda hard to do with all these guys out. Also I hope TT doesn't get hurt because he is out of shape from missing training camp.

    If Chicago wins tonight, brace yourselves for the overreaction of how Chicago is going to contend blah blah.

    Normally, I wouldn't have a lot of concern with LBJ being dinged but he has been in the league 13 years and this is a back issue. If it were a strain or something I wouldn't have too much concern but if he's getting injections, it is a bit of a cause for alarm.

    We like to think of him as invincible because he's a superfreak of an athlete but he's not immortal. I'm far from a professional athlete and cracked a disc in my lower back years ago. Trust me, once it starts, it doesn't really get better anytime soon. Can't imagine what a world class athlete, who can be involved in 100 games (preseason/regular/playoffs) would deal with.

    As far as teams like Chicago & Miami, I expect their coaches to follow a similar path as the Cavs and pace themselves (rest players) for the long haul. They probably have the same mindset where all they really need to do is get in and see what happens from there. Realistically, Chicago doesn't stand much of a chance.

    Not to mention, it's Cleveland. Wouldn't surprise me at all to see Lebron miss a good amount of time (including the post season) because of injury.

    I am excited for the NBA to be back. Mainly because it's basically the only sport my pro sports team is an elite team.

    So sad, but true....:(

    I'd prefer it be the Browns to be the first to break the dry spell but I'll take what I can get.

    I'm not concerned about Lebron being injured as much as I am the rest of the team.

    Lebron will get his mid-season 2 week break this year as well esepcially if the Cavs are in the top 2.

    Nice to See that TT still can't score.

    Obviously early...but Jefferson looks like he's got some life left. Thought he'd be another Marion.
