The Cleveland Cavaliers have won fourteen of their last fifteen games.
However, I think even LeBron James knows that this team is still one key superstar behind the Golden State Warriors. While Thomas, James, and Love can form a dynamic trio along with Wade to create a resilient four-player combination, that fifth player must improve.
Other players like JR Smith, who has proven to be a fantastic shooter, and Kyle Korver, who has also been of the league’s most effective shooters and a dynamic distraction, just do not match up well with the Warriors. Smith’s heat checks are normally uncalled for shots basically surrendering a possession, and while Korver is a fantastic shooter, his playmaking is non-existent against good defenses.
