LeBron James has the Cavs back in the playoffs against the team that last eliminated them, in 2010.

On Sunday, in his first playoff game for Cleveland since 2010, James will take his first step toward an NBA championship — toward the one that could top them all.
James and the Cavaliers open the playoffs against the Celtics, a team he knows well and the one that ended his first stay in Cleveland.
