Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Cavaliers fans and fans across the country. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartsurvey.co.uk\/s\/8SCRL8\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sign up here<\/a> to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Cavs fans are excited for the upcoming season\u2026 and who can blame them? The Cleveland Cavaliers won 64 games last year and will enter the new season as the favorites to win the Eastern Conference.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Last week, we asked fans to predict how many games the Cavs will win next season. Nearly 50% of voters picked Cleveland to win 58-63 games. Another 18% of voters predict the Cavs will match or surpass their total from last season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Expectations are high, to say the least. To have more than half of the fan base expecting a 60+ win season means you must be doing something right. But, while we didn\u2019t ask this in our survey, we\u2019d imagine everyone is more interested in postseason success than regular season wins. Another 64+ win season won\u2019t be enough if they don\u2019t advance past the second round.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">This brings us to our concerns. We asked fans to pick which positional group worries them the most next season. Unsurprisingly, most fans chose the wing rotation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The forward position has always been a concern for this iteration of the Cavs. The February addition of De\u2019Andre Hunter has certainly eased some minds \u2014 but the rest of the wing rotation is thin enough to be a concern.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The rest of the voters were split on the guards and bigs. This likely comes down to how much faith you have in either group being able to perform in the playoffs. As previously stated \u2014 we all expect the Cavs to crush it in the regular season. But can their stars allign in the postseason? That\u2019s a concern that remains.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsbook.fanduel.com\/navigation\/nba?tab=conference\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FanDuel<\/a> has Cleveland as the favorite to win the Eastern Conference with an <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsbook.fanduel.com\/navigation\/nba?tab=regular-season-wins\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">over\/under<\/a> for regular season wins set at 56.5.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NBA.
