However, the number of teams that challenge the Cleveland Cavaliers and the number of teams that will actually be able to take them down in a seven-game series are much different.
The Cavs only real threat in the East is the Toronto Raptors but there are at least five teams that should be able to win at least one if not two games in a seven-game series against Cleveland.
After the Raptors and Boston Celtics, the top two seeds in the Eastern Conference, the Cleveland Cavaliers currently sit at No. 3 but teams like the Indiana Pacers, Washington Wizards, Philadelphia 76ers and Milwaukee Bucks are in the mix.
