I see the Cavs becoming this decade's version of the Buffalo Bills.

If the Cavs lose do you think they will get back to the finals next year? The east is terrible but I would think losing this year would damage their psyche to the point where they wouldn't have the mental fortitude to get back to another finals.

For what its worth... I think their is financial bonuses to reaching the finals.

Of course they'll get back, whose stopping them? The Raptors? :lol Over-the-Mountain D-Wade and the Feet? :lol The never-been-to-the-Promised-Land Hawks? :lmao Only if LeBron isn't playing or Durant goes to a contender out east.

It's a given Lebron is always going to be super motivated to go to the finals but I find hard to believe the rest of that team could be motivated to go back if they know they are going to lose. Eventually human emotions come into play especially when they are in another grind out series in which they are thinking "Do I really want to bust my ass to beat this team knowing even if we advance we are still losing in the finals."
