Nine wins in a row! Silently attack the champion! The most underrated team in the league
The NBA regular season continues, and at this time the East has formed a three-legged pattern, with the Timberwolves, Clippers, Thunder, and Nuggets, and the number of wins of these four teams is only 05, and the rankings of these four teams are also constantly changing, which team occupies the first place in the west, it is still undecided. The Foresters and Thunder are both big upsets this year, while the Clippers are a team with several superstars. As the champion of last season, the Nuggets needless to say about their overall level, a high school forward with absolute dominance, no Embiid's weak feeling, coupled with Jokic's Buddhist style, which means that there are not many injuries, so the Nuggets are still the most promising team to win the championship this season.
Of course, in the eastern part of the United States, it is also a strong team, including some strong teams that cannot be ignored, such as the Suns, Lakers, Warriors, these luxury teams, their results are not particularly good, but superstars like this are gathered together, often with strong physical fitness and playoff experience, if they can enter the playoffs, then they have the hope of winning the championship. The three giants in the Eastern Conference Finals are the Celtics, the Bucks, and the 76ers, and they are all the favorites for the top three in the Eastern Conference finals. However, in the middle of the game, the Bucks and 76ers were eliminated one after another, and only the Green Army still maintained its stubborn fighting spirit. On the Bucks' side, there is a not-so-good situation, that is, with the play of Brother Alphabet and Lillard on the court.
The 76ers were thrown into chaos due to Embiid's injury, and as a result, the Bucks finished 3rd in the Eastern Conference and the 76ers finished 5th in the Eastern Conference. The Cleveland Cavaliers have become the number one star of the season, and what they have achieved in the previous game is unimaginable. Since their last win over the Raptors, the Cavaliers have unknowingly run a nine-game winning streak, and their current record is 35-16. Nine seasons ago, the Cavaliers had eight consecutive seasons, which is their 17-1 record in 18 league games some time ago. The reason is that the Cavaliers are not very famous, and their record and form are very good, with nine consecutive victories! Silently controlling the entire alliance! One of the most underrated teams in the league, 8-1, made a fortune.
Judging from the Cavaliers' roster, their overall level is still very good, because they are all All-Star level players, plus Mitchell, Garland, Allen, these are all All-Star players in the 21-22 season. However, the current Cavaliers are not yet on par with the strongest teams in the NBA. In terms of basic data, the Cavaliers don't have anything to look good about, their average points per game, assists, and shooting shots are only the average level in the league, but the Cavaliers have an advantage, their defense is very good, their defensive ability is very strong, as high as 1100 defense, 2nd in the league; Allen and Mobley, although they both have "blue-collar" talents, they can also get rebounds and rim protection, and have become the core of the whole team. Be the backbone of the team.
In fact, the biggest problem with the Cavaliers at the beginning was that the fit between their players was not high, and Allen and Mobley, two players with very similar physical qualities, could easily penetrate their restricted area. In addition, Mitchell and Garland, two perimeter offensive players, share similar qualities: both are 1Small men at 85 meters, but equally, when they face Cleveland's perimeter defence, they can easily break through and can easily control the ball. Now, the Cavaliers have realized this problem and have come up with a countermeasure: make appropriate arrangements for the starting lineup, make appropriate alternates, adjust the positions of Mitchell and Garland, adjust Mitchell and Allen, and Garland and Mobley make adjustments, and this temporary tactical arrangement has played a good role. The rest of the knights, on the other hand, are their own factions, such as Lewe, such as Strausser, such as Okoro, and they all have their own responsibilities.
Of course, Mitchell is the ceiling of this team, and it's not just the Cavaliers who are underrated, Mitchell is indeed a seriously underrated superstar, and people used to think that Mitchell was just a superstar"Brush the dice", which will only play one or two games in the playoffs. But that's not the case, when he was in the Jazz, Mitchell was very restricted, after all, their level was not high, and after arriving at the Cavaliers, Mitchell's performance is still improving, this season, his shots have decreased a lot, but his team awareness has been greatly improved, so far, he has been able to get 63 assists, which allowed him to reach a new record for the number of assists he had in his individual game. It has to be said that they chose one person to exchange for Mitchell, which was a good deal. Mitchell led the Cavaliers to four playoff games when they arrived last season, and this season, they have gone from strength to strength to second place in the West. And in the East, which does not have a competitive advantage, they may not be without hope of performing a miracle in the playoffs and finally winning the championship.
