No. 1 Cleveland 61-21 vs. No. 8 Chicago 41-41

 

The Cleveland Cavaliers come into the playoffs with the best record in the NBA and a well-rested LeBron James. The Chicago Bulls come into the postseason with some momentum after catching Toronto to clinch the eight seed and beating the LeBronless Cavs down the stretch of the regular season.

 

Cleveland will win because.. LeBron James shows up to the games. The Cavs really shouldn’t have much trouble handling the Bulls. They have a huge home court advantage, as they went 35-6 at home this season and combine to that the 17-24 Bulls road record.

Antawn Jamison will be a key contributor in this series and the Cavs will exploit Chicago with multiple three-point threats.
