This is where the King reigns! 24-year old LeBron James is the best player in the NBA right now as he can do everything on the basketball court. He played in 81 games for the Cavs last season and he averaged 37.7 minutes, 28.4 points, 7.6 rebounds, 7.2 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.2 blocked shots per game. His scoring might even go down a little bit with Shaq in town but his assists should go way up. Regardless of the stats LeBron puts up he is a team player who cares most about winning games. He makes everyone on his team a better player. When he needs a break (which isn’t too often) 29-year old Jamario Moon will man the small forward spot. He played in 80 games for the Raptors and Heat last season in which he averaged 25.9 minutes, 7.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.1 steals per game. His game is a lot like Anderson Varejao’s as he plays all out, all of the time especially on defense. He also is a fantasic finisher on fast breaks usually with amazing dunks. 24-year old Rob Kurz will be sitting near the end of the bench for the Cavs. He played in 40 games as a rookie for the Warriors last season and he averaged 11.1 minutes, 3.9 points, 2.0 rebounds and 0.5 assists per game. Kurz’ biggest asset is his shooting as he nailed 39.5% of his threes last season.
