The Cavaliers' New Offense
ESPN.com - TrueHoop —
At Basketball Prospectus, Anthony Macri likes what he sees from Cleveland: In the last 12 months, the Cavaliers made changes both to their roster and to their approach that would seem to have given them advantages they previously did not have. While they did not add a second superstar as a sidekick to LeBron James, they have put together a group of role players that is better suited to contribute based on James' skill set. The Cavs now feature a legitimate second scoring option in Mo Williams, a shooter who is very capable of ...

The Fundamentals

... Anthony Macri of Basketball Prospectus: “Do LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers truly have a chance to win it all with their team as presently constituted? Or, more to the point, is James good enough to put this team on his back and carry them to a championship? The Cavaliers receive nearly one third of their points per game from LeBron. However, if we take the group as a whole, they are not all that dissimilar from the rest of the league’s title contenders. In fact, the two top contenders have a lot in common with the Cavs. The Los Angeles Lakers have eight ...
