James (via New Heights): "The Cavs look amazing right now. They got another opportunity. I hope they keep it going, they got an opportunity to do something special."

Right now, the Cavs are the first seed in the Eastern Conference with a 34-5 record in 39 games.

They have gone 9-1 over their last ten.
