Should we be worried about the Cavs?

In the past five games, the Cavs have one win and five losses, have dropped to second place in the Eastern Conference and have been ridiculed by just about everyone. So is that enough to become worried about the Cavs not making it back to the Finals? To a lot of people, the answer is yes. To me, the answer is no. And here's why:

Reason number one: Talent. The Cavs have one of the most talented teams in the NBA, and there's no doubt about that. LeBron James, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love are some of the most talented players in the NBA. With that kind of talent, the Cavs can go far in the playoffs, no doubt.

Reason number two: Clutch. LeBron James and Kyrie Irving are arguably the two most clutch players in the NBA right now. LeBron had "The Block" and Kyrie had "The Shot." Those were the two most clutch plays in the NBA Finals. Those two plays together show that the Cavs have the clutch players to make it deep into the playoffs.

Reason number three: LeBron. This is such a simple reason. LeBron ups his level of playing from amazing to GOAT (Greatest of all time) in the playoffs. He overperforms and leads his team to the championship game almost every year. I see no reason why he can't do the same thing this year.

So should we be worried about the Cavs? No.

The Cleveland Gladiators, the Team Nobody Knows About

Well, it turns out that Cleveland is just bad at football in general. In the NFL, they have the Browns, a dismal team that had just one win last year. But Cleveland also has a football team in the league everyone forgets about, the Arena Football League.  Now, if you don't know about the Arena Football League, here's a rundown. The AFL was created in 1987 and is a spin-off of the NFL, but with a couple different rules. First, it's played indoor with short walls along the side of the fields. Players are allowed to crash into these walls without the play being stopped. Second, it's much more high scoring. The reason for this is because the field is only 50 yards long. Before the snap, one receiver is allowed to start running. In addition, there are only 16 players on the field at a time, eight on offense and eight on defense. Many players play on both offense and defense. Now that you know the basics of Arena Football, I'll talk about the Cleveland Gladiators. ...

LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers: Monstars?

After game one of the Eastern Conference Finals, a lot of people are pretty sure that LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers are going to sweep their way all the way to the NBA Finals. After sweeping both the Indiana Pacers and the Toronto Raptors, the Cavaliers beat the Boston Celtics by 13 points in Boston on Wednesday night and they're looking unstoppable. The movie "Space Jam" was released in 1996 and is easily on of my favorite sports movies of all time. It featured Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, Charles Barkley and other NBA superstars. The movie pitted Michael Jordan and his team of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and others against the Monstars, a group of giant cartoon characters who've stolen NBA stars talents. We all know what happens, but I'm not going to be writing about "Space Jam" today. Thursday, star Boston Celtics point guard Isaiah Thomas told reporters "We're not scared of Cleveland. They're not the Monstars. They're not on...
