Lebron James achieves a double-double to help Cavs win over Magic

The Cleveland Cavaliers I have finishing first in the Eastern Conference this season. It's still early in the season so it's possible it could happen. I'm going to make the prediction that they go on a ten game winning streak sometime this season. It's taking time for Kyrie Irving, Lebron James and Kevin Love to learn how to gel together and adjust to their roles. I feel that when Lebron takes the most shots that Cleveland will increase their chances of winning. That's just my thoughts about it. I'd like to hear yours. Tonight Lebron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers took care of business against the Orlando Magic by defeating them 106-74. Lebron James lead the way with a double-double by scoring 29 points and having 11 assists. I think that Lebron should shoot 20-25 games a game, Kyrie Irving shoots 15-20 and Kevin Love shoots 12-15 while on the court. Dion Waiters can play 6th man and come off the bench and get his shots. Here are the stats for each team.

With this win over the Orlando Magic the Cleveland Cavaliers improve to 6-7. The Cavs next opponents is on Wednesday night against the Washington Wizards. It is still early though Cavs fans. If it were 60 games and they were 20-40 I'd worry then. Will Cleveland win a championship this year? I don't know yet considering how I've seen rival Chicago Bulls Jimmy Butler improve on the offensive end. Even though this is now Kyrie Irving's team, I think he should consider being second option while Lebron being the first option on scoring. What are your thoughts on how Cleveland Cavaliers can improve? What did you think about this win? Send me your comments. Thank you for reading Pro Basketball Hoops Land.
