Cleveland? Absolutely

It isn't very often that sports fans are rooting for Cleveland to do well but they were last week.
Getting LeBron James to the Eastern Conference finals of the NBA playoffs was a big deal.
It gave the east some much-needed spark in the current playoffs.
James is the best young player (and most exciting) and gives the series something to watch.
The west has had all of the drama. However, with James against the tough and experienced Pistons should be terrific.
So, yes, Cleveland was at the top of the list.
