How important is CLE's record at home and point differential

The Cavs Board
4 2 616

  • CLE's performance a the Q this season has been amazing this season. And that is just when you look at the record of 35-1 (and a real possibility of 40-1 record).

    But this record could very well be telling of how the season will end for the Cavs. In the history of the NBA, teams that have lost 3 or less home games over the course of a season have all gone on to win the NBA title.

    CLE's average point differential this season has been 10pts. Only 3 teams in NBA history have had a average point differential of 10+ points. All of those teams went on to win the NBA title.

    By no coincidence those same 3 teams that had the 10+ point differential had home records of 39-2, 36-5, and 39-2.

    Those teams also won 69 or more games in their seasons, which CLE does have a chance to do.

    Right now, not only the play on the court has the Cavs projected to an NBA title, history is on their side as well.

  • The part about it being CLE is why I can understand why fans sometimes lost their minds this season w/ hating on the Cavs after they lost a game. We all unfortunately know how our beloved CLE teams fair in the past when the playoffs come. But this is not a team that is going to break CLEs heart. For a change we have MJ/Elway on our side, rather than him on the opposite side.

  • Good original post...

    I think the most amazing thing, if you've been watching these last 13 games and all season, is the way the Cavs play in the least few minutes of a game. Their defense just turns up 10 levels. Mo and Delonte both play with the confidence and aggressiveness we've needed out of LeBron's teammates, and even LeBron has gotten more of a killer instinct at the end. Even Sasha drops a 3 when called on. It must be contagious.

    They've even done it on the road many times. It's amazing.
