At the end of the 2018 season, the Cavaliers once again lost their little emperor - Lebanon James, and while everyone thought the Cavaliers were about to embark on a long rebuilding period, the Cavaliers were able to rebuild successfully in the fourth year of James' departure under the management's strategist. Last season's Cavaliers brought undoubted surprises to the majority of fans, they cultivated Garland after the absence of Sexton shine, from the Nets to get Allen also showed strong dominance in the interior, a harvest of two All-Star players, and the team in this new strength, once broke into the top half of the Eastern Conference record. Although the team was eventually eliminated in the play-in game due to various reasons such as injuries, but last season's Knights have gotten rid of the title of a fish-belly team and become a powerhouse in the East, which is considered to have played a relatively successful season.

Some fans may say, everyone's requirements for the Cavaliers is too low, even the playoffs have not been able to play into the dare to call the reconstruction success? The Grizzlies, who were eliminated in the playoffs in the 19-20 season and then got the eighth in the West in the 20-21 season, took off last season and advanced to the playoffs as the second seed in the West, and broke through the first round in the playoffs and caused a lot of trouble for the Warriors, who were the champions of the season, so the Cavaliers are likely to follow the Grizzlies' example and become The Cavaliers are also likely to follow the Grizzlies to become a member of the championship race.

So, what have the Cavaliers done since James left to get the team through the rebuilding period quickly, and what quality assets have the Cavaliers accumulated today? First of all, the Cavaliers management vision is very unique, from 2018 to 2021 the four years, the Cavaliers with the hands of the accumulation of high draft picks were selected Sexton, Garland, Rook, Mosley, these four players in the subsequent game have played excellent performance, together with the construction of the Cavaliers today's team framework. Among them, Garland even averaged 21+8 last season, growing into an Eastern Conference All-Star level player. Mow bray, a rookie, became a contender for the league's best defensive player last season and is likely to grow into a DEPLOY in the future. If his offensive talents can be further developed, his future is also unlimited. Sexton and Rook performance is not as bright as the above two, but can also be said to be moderate.

Secondly, for the team's former All-Star veteran Kevin Love, the Knights did not easily packaged and sold, and finally waited for the team's payroll space to rise, and successfully ate Love's big contract at the same time, Love's performance also began to pick up, a big return to the top space power forward of the year. If the knight then choose to immediately deal with the Befoul, will not only cause the team assets shrinkage, but also more will lose such a quality team veteran.

Finally, the Cavaliers didn't give up on trading for immediate talent in free agency because of the excellent potential rookies and experienced veterans on the team, as they traded for quality inside linebacker Jarrett Allen in last season's free agency. Although Allen has occasionally shone in previous games, his positioning is more of a blue-collar center, knowing that in today's space-conscious league, interior players without shooting ability are often considered of little value, so the Cavaliers managed to take Allen at a lower cost. However, to the knight's Allen is ushered in the peak of his career, during the regular season he can deliver an average of 16.1 points, 10.8 rebounds and 1.3 caps of excellent data performance, become the mainstay of the knight's interior at the same time successfully selected for the season all-star.

This summer the Cavaliers took their rebuild a step further when they traded for star Donovan Mitchell from the Jazz. Mitchell has grown into a top player on the league's guard line during his time with the Jazz as a young star. Although there were some problems with his teammates last season, which led the team to trade him, it is undeniable that Mitchell replaces Sexton as the fire point of the team's back line, which will certainly raise the team's offensive level a notch, in addition, Mitchell's arrival can also solve the team's back court ball possession problem. Mitchell and Garland composed of the back court, plus Aaron Mosley composed of the twin towers of the interior, so that both inside and outside the Knights in the new season will certainly bring fans a surprise.

NBA data experts Lingering predicted the record of each team in the new season, the knights with 47 wins and 35 losses to hold steady in the sixth place in the East, they have been the brightest dark horse team in the East. However, in the preseason games, they did not play as well as they should, and were also double-teamed by the Erse in the same division. In fact, a deep analysis, it is not difficult to see that Mitchell and Garland are heavy offensive guards, and they are not able to establish a great advantage when playing against the offensive strength of Harden, Irving and Tran Young. Secondly, the knight's front line is mediocre, the wing can use people just Osman, Stevens these players, and has the letter brother, Tatum and Durant of these stars compared to the gap stars, the front line strength is weak, will certainly weaken the knight's advantage in the interior. In addition, the Knight's interior defense is strong, but Mosley and Allen both lack the ability to pull space. Therefore, it is very difficult for the knight to play. What is everyone's opinion on this?
