This NBA offseason has been very eventful, and the preseason is about to wrap up. To help hoops junkies with the transition from the lull of summer back to competitive basketball, we here at numberFire will be rolling out our projections for next season in the form of team previews, starting at 30 and going all the way to number one. We continue, and end it, today with the 1st-ranked Cleveland Cavaliers!

There have been many storylines this NBA offseason. But surely none even come close to return to Cleveland. But what, or who, may very well be this summer's next biggest story? Well, that story also ended in Cleveland, Ohio. And we all are now very aware that numberFire hoops staff draft). It's hard to argue against a guy playing alongside the best player in the game.

But it's even harder to argue against a guy who put up the numbers that Love did on a consistent basis last year with such a baaad team. Love averaged over 26 points and 12 boards while also tallying over 4 assists per contest. However, the real value for Love lies in his ability to give you three-pointers from the power forward or center position. Love tied for 7th among all players this past year with 2.5 three-point makes per game. He trailed only best shooting guard in the league jokes, he picked Waiters in the 13th round with the 147th pick. Now I know I said there's not much value for Waiters at his average draft position currently, but where Weisband got him he did get value. Waiters is a projected starting shooting guard on a much improved team with two superstars in James and Love who are willing passers and who can provide Waiters with some easy assists. As corny as it is, wait on Waiters.
