Cavaliers’ Championship Quest: Genuine Contenders or Just History’s Great Pretenders?
It can be tricky comparing the past to the present because of the various changes in the rules and playing styles that can influence the way the game is played. Fortunately, TRACR (Team Rating Adjusted for Competition and Roster) gives us a way to compare different eras.
And we can use O-TRACR (the offensive variation of the metric), D-TRACR (the defensive variation), and overall TRACR to see what history tells us about this Cavaliersâ team.
The Cavaliers Are In Good Company
As it stands, the Cavaliers have an overall TRACR of 12.3. Based on our database (which extends back to 1984-85), only four teams have ever had a TRACR over 12.0 for an entire season: the 2024-25 Cavaliers, 2024-25 Thunder, 1995-96 Chicago Bulls and 2023-24 Celtics.
