Prominent NBA Teams on Historic Paces

The Cleveland Cavaliers and the Oklahoma City Thunder are both on track to achieve historic win totals this season, with the Cavs potentially breaking their franchise record and aiming for a winning percentage comparable to the legendary 1996 Bulls. However, despite their impressive statistics, including strong net ratings and standout performances from key players, they are often overlooked in championship odds. The discussion highlights the bias against the Cavs, attributed to a general skepticism around their star player combinations and playoff performance from the previous season. In contrast, both teams exemplify a return to balanced basketball, showcasing the importance of disciplined play alongside individual talent.
