Cleveland Cavaliers

One of the true dark horses this season, the Cleveland Cavaliers finally have a team which is a legit play-off contender. On paper, they have a young, talented and energetic team. They’re also one of the teams which could blossom into something really special.

Kyrie Irving, the next big thing, along with Andrew Bynum would form a potent inside-out duo in Cleveland. Irving’s fast, talented and is a ridiculously good ball handler. Bynum is good at posting and is an incredible defensive presence. Remember, when he was healthy, he was the No. 2 center in the league after Dwight Howard. If these two stay healthy, the Cavs have a real shot at making to the Top 3 of the conference.

C.J. Miles and Jarrett Jack will provide the required assistance to Irving. Anderson Varejao, one of the league’s most underrated centers will probably start at Power Forward and that means their front line will be one of the most physical ones in the league. With Anthony Bennett, Dion Waiters and Tristan Thompson coming of the bench, the Cavs have a well rounded team led by the young Kyrie Irving.
