As the Cleveland Cavaliers inch closer to the end of the regular season on April 12th, there are some things the team should be looking at to be at their best.
Sitting at 43-27 and fourth in the Eastern Conference, the Cleveland Cavaliers are in a decent position for the playoffs. Being in fourth would currently have them avoiding the New York Knicks or the Boston Celtics until the Eastern Conference Finals.
Here are three things the team needs to accomplish before the end of the season.The Cavaliers have been riddled with injuries all year. At the start of the season Darius Garland and Max Strus were recovering from surgeries in the offseason that left them lacking in the beginning from their opponents. But now, as the season is reaching its end, Strus has returned, but James Harden and Donovan Mitchell are dealing with lingering injuries at a time where wins are really important.and Jaylon Tyson had a foot issue in the win against the Chicago Bulls that could keep him out. Getting everybody healthy before the first round of the playoffs on April 18th is vital to the teams success.This week, Evan Mobley has been amazing. He is sitting on 22 points and 11 rebounds over the last 10 games. These performances right now were what was expected of Mobley going into the season. Some issues early on with confidence in a new role seemed to be the problem, but the acquisition of Harden has changed this entirely. Harden has turned him into a new player. In the absence of Allen in the team's current run of games on the road,With Mobley at this level, the core four can be phenomenal. Right now when they are on the court together,This is arguably the hardest part of the team to figure out if you are head coach Kenny Atkinson. Cleveland has a lot of talent on the bench right now which is a great problem to have. He just needs to find the guys that he wants out there every night when the core four need some rest. The only guys who seem to be a lock right now would be Strus. Tyson is still a bit of a tough call due to his lack of experience. Thomas Bryant seems like a good choice right now as the only big off the bench. Craig Porter Jr., Nae'Qwan Tomlin, and Keon Ellis all feel like good choices depending on what the team needs at that point in the game. For the Cleveland Cavaliers to ensure major success, figuring these out feels like the best thing to do right now.
