After the big trade at the deadline, the Cavs went on a nice run, rattling off 8 wins in their first 10 games. Since then however, it has been a bit of a struggle, as the Cavs have slipped a litte and have only gone 5-5 in the last 10 games...

They are still a very solid 13-7 since the trade, and have been playing much better overall team defense. When proven defensive players like Billups, Ariza and Oden are added to your roster, this improvement on the defensive side of the ball is not really a big surprise.

As we get into the month of April, With a eight games in left in the Season, the Cavs are sitting at 43-31 which is 2.5 games better in the Central Division than the 2nd place Chicago Bulls. With only eight games left for both teams, the Cavs have a pretty comfortable lead.
