3. Cleveland
Record: 28-8
Last week: 1st
The biggest news for the Cavaliers last week came off the court, as general manager David Griffin added another offensive weapon to the mix by trading for Kyle Korver. With J.R. Smith out until the spring Cleveland needed another shooter capable of spacing the floor, and in Korver they've filled that need. The next step is to bolster the team's depth at point guard, with Kyrie Irving and Kay Felder being the only options there right now. One would assume that the Cavs would look for a veteran to fill that void, but it's a move that will likely have a greater impact during the dog days of February and March (get some extra rest for the key playmakers) as opposed to the playoffs.
