One thing is abundantly clear: the Cavaliers are doing better than many people expected but the competition for the top of the Eastern Conference is fierce.

The Cavaliers recently ended an eight-game winning streak because of a loss to the Bucks.

Then they got their revenge on Friday night, taking Milwaukee down 112-100.

Next up for the Cavaliers are the Los Angeles Clippers, Detroit Pistons, Memphis Grizzlies, San Antonio Spurs, and others.

What are the chances that they can surpass the third-seed Philadelphia 76ers, who have a 29-14 record?

It won’t be easy but many people never expected the Cavaliers to be doing this well at this point.
