The Cleveland Cavaliers’ over-under win total this season was put at 30.5 by the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook, which seemed a bit low for a team with Kevin Love back and some good young talent and veterans who are capable of big nights. ESPN projected the Cavaliers to just get the over in regards to that mark, and they have Cleveland slotted to finish 11th in the Eastern Conference. Recently, HoopsHype’s Jorge Sierra took it one step further, projecting Cleveland to finish as the East’s 12th seed. To me, that’s a stretch; the Cavs probably won’t be that bad with their depth around Love and with head coach Tyronn Lue able to implement more of his uptempo philosophy this year.
