Previewing the Cavs second half

As of February 24, 2017, the Cleveland Cavaliers have 40 wins and 16 losses, and are in first place in the Eastern Conference. But there are some problems. Before the season almost everyone expected the Cavs to be in first place in the East by about seven or eight games. In reality, the Cavs only have a three-and-a-half game lead on the Boston Celtics, and this does raise some questions. The Cavs are averaging more points, rebounds, and assists than last year, but they're losing to some bad teams. So far this season, they've lost to the Sacramento Kings, Portland Trail Blazers, New Orleans Pelicans and Dallas Mavericks. All four of those teams have losing records, and frankly, the Cavs just shouldn't be losing to those kind of teams. If the Cavs don't get their defense back up to normal, they're just not going to do well if they make it back to the NBA Finals against the high-scoring Golden State Warriors. However, I am confident in the Cavaliers. I think they c

Cleveland Indians MLB Preivew

Well, the Cleveland Indians sure have had a big offseason. The Indians signed perhaps the biggest free agent of the offseason in Edwin Encarnacion, a first baseman and designated hitter who previously played for the Toronto Blue Jays. Last season, Encarnacion hit an outstanding 42 home runs and led the American League with 127 runs batted in. Most people think Encarnacion will turn out to be a great signing and lead the Indians back to the playoffs. Edwin Encarnacion, the Indians new signing. Now, I'm going to make some predictions for the Indians upcoming 2017-2018 season. To start, I think that they're going to have another great season and definitely make the playoffs, and maybe go all the way back to the World Series for another chance to win the big whammy. And here's why: Reason number one: The Pitching. The Indians had one of the best pitching rotations in baseball last year, made up of Corey Kluber, Carlos Carrasco, Danny Salazar and Trevor Bauer. Kluber, ni

Are the Cavs ready for the Warriors?

Let's think back to before the NBA season started. The Cleveland Cavaliers were (and still are) the reigning NBA champions and the Golden State Warriors had signed Kevin Durant to add to their already amazing team. So naturally, almost everyone expected the 2017 NBA Finals to be a rematch for a third straight year, Cavs vs. Warriors. But since then, the Cavs haven't been playing as well as everyone thought they would. Now, almost at the all-star break, the Cavs only have a two-and-a-half game lead on the Boston Celtics for the number one spot in the Eastern conference. So the question becomes: "Are the Cavs ready for the Warriors?" Many pundits think no, if they haven't been able to beat teams such as the Sacramento Kings, who are not a very good team, in Cleveland, there is not a chance in France of them beating the Warriors in the Finals. But on the other side, there are experts that say yes, the Cavs are ready for the Warriors because they will play better

Who will the Cleveland Browns draft?

Myles Garrett, my pick for who the Browns will draft number 1 The Cleveland Browns finished with an abysmal 2016 season with a record of just one win and 15 losses. That horrible record has won them the first overall pick though, so one good thing came out of a bad season. Now, I am a Browns fan, and I do want them to succeed, but the Browns are just plain old bad and there's nothing to change that for now, so don't jump on me for saying my favorite team is bad. They are. There's nothing to change that right now. But back to the draft. The Browns have the number one draft pick and the number 12 draft pick from the Philadelphia Eagles because of a trade made in last year's draft. This means that the Browns can select any player declared and eligible for the NFL draft. To start, some expert's predictions: Daniel Jeremiah, Bucky Brooks and Lance Zierlein, all NFL.com experts, predict Myles Garrett, the Texas A&M outside linebacker to be selected by the
