Cleveland Cavaliers
While Tristan Thompson hasn’t inked his new contract, I’m assuming he will. Any team led by LeBron James is a contender, and with secondary talent like Thompson, Kevin Love, Timofey Mozgov and Kyrie Irving , the Cavs will win a lot of games by ridiculous margins. I don’t think coach David Blatt needs to hear any more questions about his NBA readiness after leading his limping squad to within 2 wins of a championship.
60 wins is a reasonable target, and the Cavaliers should be seeded #1 by season’s end.
