On today's episode, Doug Patrick and Joe Brett take over the podcast. They discuss the recent signings of David Nwaba and Sam Dekker and fantasize about some lineups next season. Then, at around the 19:35 mark, they ask some questions about the upcoming Cavs season: will they make the playoffs? Will Kevin Love look like he did in Minnesota? Who do we think on this Cavs roster will have a breakout year? How safe is Coach Lue's job? Will Tristan Thompson be starting at the end of the year? And how do we feel about Jordan Clarkson?

Like usual, we broke down the Cavs last week of games. The Cavs won all four of their games this past week, ending the week with an impressive win over the Toronto Raptors. With wins over the Hornets, Pelicans, and Mavs, we dissect each of the Cavaliers four wins. Following that, we hit our hot topics. Our first hot topic is the Cavaliers and their rotational. The Cavaliers have had an interesting rotation with an array of injuries giving different players big minutes. Jeff Green, who went from virtually out of the rotation to starting and playing a few games of 40+ minutes, is just one example of how the Cavs sporadic rotation has been influencing their personnel. After that detailed discussion, we look deeper into what a Kawhi Leonard trade would look like. Should the team trade the Brooklyn Nets first-round pick for the injured superstar? There are quite a bit of factors that go into it and if the Cavs even have the assets is a huge question mark also. Kawhi trade scenarios are the last of our hot topics. From there, we pick up our fact-or-fiction segment. With four questions, be sure to let us know if you got them all correct without looking them up. Before ending our sixteenth episode, we take a look at the next slate of games for the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Cavs end their season with two games against New York and then a game each against the Wizards and 76ers.

We started like we usually do and broke down the last few weeks of games. We recorded this prior to LeBron's 41-point game against the Hornets. We started with the Cavs first win against the Bulls. They then rattled off four more wins including one against the No. 1 Eastern Conference team, the Toronto Raptors. Hear our breakdown of those and a bit extra about the Cavs discouraging loss to the Heat. We then went into our first of our two hot topics. The first topic was regarding LeBron James and his MVP case. We looked at former MVP's, the likelihood of James' winning MVP, and why it is James Harden's to lose. This quick segment provided all you needed to know regarding the MVP and our predictions for MVP. The second hot topic was about the Cavs final stretch of games. The Eastern Conference playoff seeding was also mentioned. That could have a huge impact on the Cavs. The rotation is the other part that was mentioned in detailed. How can't we figure out a consistent rotation? Are injuries to blame or is the coaching? Following our hot topics, we got into our fact or fiction segment. With four difficult questions, be sure to comment if you were able to get them all (without cheating)! Next up were our preview and picks. We have three games this week. All home games, the Cavs should use their 25-11 home record to boost their confidence for this last stretch of games.

The Cleveland Cavaliers still have several things to figure out and at the forefront of that list is their rotation and who will both start and play in the final minutes. In King James Gossip's thirteenth episode, we welcome back contributor Dan Gilinsky. Along with being re-joined by Dan, we were able to dive into a controversial topic-- who should play in clutch time for the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Cleveland Cavaliers have seen success with their retooled roster. Whether it's sustainable or not is still in question, but either way, this is now the roster that the Cavs have to deal with. There's no getting away or trading; this is the roster that LeBron James must take to the promise land.

The Cleveland Cavaliers, who have struggled throughout the season, might face true adversity in the Eastern Conference this postseason. Is that threat Toronto?

Over the last few years, even in times of doubt, we all knew the Cleveland Cavaliers were the best team in the East by a large margin. Is it now time to start truly doubting the Cavs ability to run these teams over in the postseason?

With special guest Mike Bossetti, we talked about his recent podcast, all things Raptors-Cavs, and if the Raptors are true threats to the Cavs thrown. We also tied in our usual segments. The other main topic we talked about was how the Eastern Conference will pan out.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have a long road to go before they prove to most of the NBA world that this reshaped team is truly as good, if not better than, last season's team. However, two road wins against Oklahoma City and Boston has certainly started them off on the right foot.

In King James Gossip episode 9, we go over all things trade deadline. With the Cleveland Cavaliers making three team-altering trades, there is more than enough to talk about. Normally, to begin, we start with the last couple games and their impact. However, this time, there is seemingly no point in going over the dramatic, record-setting win that occurred on Wednesday night, mainly because only 60% of that team is still apart of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
