Since the Guardians’ season is over, and the Browns continue to be the Browns, our hometown is solely relying on the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Cavs have had their best start in franchise history, beginning their 2024-2025 campaign with a 9-0 record, which is currently the best record in the NBA. After several unsuccessful past playoff campaigns, the Cavs fired J.B. Bickerstaff, and the front office brought in former Golden State Warriors assistant coach, Kenny Atkinson.
Last season, the Cavs had four games scoring over 130 points. So far this season under Atkinson, Cleveland already has matched last year’s total with four games over 130 points.
A defensive-minded club last year is now a full offensive and defensive unit with obvious chemistry. Below are all of the final scores to date:
- Game 1: Cavs 136-106 (Raptors)
- Game 2: Cavs 113-101 (Pistons)
- Game 3: Cavs 135-116 (Wizards)
- Game 4: Cavs 110-104 (Knicks)
- Game 5: Cavs 134-110 (Lakers)
- Game 6: Cavs 120-109 (Magic)
- Game 7: Cavs 114-113 (Bucks)
- Game 8: Cavs 116-114 (Bucks)
- Game 9: Cavs 131-122 (Pelicans)
The core four of Darius Garland, Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley, and Jarrett Allen have been lights-out with each contributing in their way.
Mitchell currently leads the team in points per game with 23.8, and Garland is not far behind, averaging 19.8 PPG. Allen is averaging a double-double with 15.1 PPG and 11.9 rebounds per game. Last but not least, Mobley is putting up 17.3 PPG and is currently leading the team in blocks per game with almost two a night.
The bench has also made big contributions with guys like Caris LeVert, Ty Jerome, and Sam Merrill stepping up in big moments with buckets, rebounds, assists, and stellar defense.
Some upcoming games are tomorrow at 7:30 against the Warriors, Saturday at 7:30 against the Nets, next Monday at 8:00 against the Bulls, and next Wednesday at 7:30 against the 76ers.
This team looks exciting right now, and we will continue to root for them all season long. Great start in a hopeful, championship season!
