Fox is expendable. Haliburton is a PG, they can keep Hield or include in him in a trade. I would go after Ben if I am SAC

What the Schedule Tells Us About Who’s Real and Who’s Not in 2021-22

The Cavs and Lakers have surprised this season in different ways. Here’s how the remaining strength of schedule might help or hurt the chances of those and a few other early-season trends continuing.

Cleveland Cavaliers​

Past SOS: Second by point differential, tied for first by record
Future SOS: 30th by point differential, 30th by record​

Los Angeles Lakers
Past SOS: 30th by point differential, 29th by record
Future SOS: First by point differential, First by record​

Interesting article about strength of schedule thus far.

Cavs have had the toughest strenght of schedule- and have the easiest strength of schedule the rest of the way.

The Lakers thus far have had the easiest schedule- and have the hardest schedule the rest of the way.

Last Week: 6 ↑
Cleveland Cavaliers
Record: 19-12
Pace: 97.9 (22) OffRtg: 109.3 (17) DefRtg: 103.3 (2) NetRtg: +6.1 (4)
If you were to use every team’s current point differential to project their record over the remainder of the season, the Cavs would finish first in the East at 56-26. They’re currently three games in the loss column behind Brooklyn, but have the conference’s best point differential (both on a per-game and per-possession basis) by a healthy margin.


Gotta say- I think 4th is crazy- but cool to see.

lets hope they can keep their heads above water while Okoro, Mobley, Allen are out. Not going to be easy and they will come back down to earth missing their 3 best defensive players--- but thems the breaks this year apparently. Hopefully theydont have to worry about those guys being out again this season after this covid stint. Defense is gonna take a real hit the next week though.

That stretch from Dec 30 on is punitive...two road games, fly home from Utah just for one game, back on a plane, 2 road games then home from New Orleans for just one game back on a plane to Memphis basically right next to New Orleans, 4 more road games.

Absurd

It is what it is, bro.
Also keep in mind there's the possibility that some of those get cancelled, or rescheduled depending on how bad things get with covid in some of those stops, or even with the warriors.

Ha, yeah I can’t fault them for this one. They had to want to get payback for that record loss.
