Hot take: Cavs are good.
Three games in and undefeated still. Beast of the East right now.
Well-rounded squad with a coach who knows how to use all the moving parts and giant egos.
Celts have no shot at these guys without a legit interior presence.

Wait, wait, wait.. Let's not get ahead of ourselves here. They should be 3-0. I give them credit for beating Toronto in Toronto, who they barely beat, btw, but they've had a ridiculously easy schedule so far, too.
- 2 games at home
- Both of those games were against non-playoff teams last year (and who will more than likely neither be playoff teams this year)
- No back-to-backs
Our schedule has been more difficult with back-to-back games, more away games (including on the second night of a back to back), and much more difficult opponents (I've long said Chicago is more likely to make the playoffs than New York, though likely as a 7th or 8th seed).
