Cavs' Historic 9-0 Start: Championship Hopes and Mitchell's Impact
TL;DR Summary
The Cleveland Cavaliers have started the NBA season 9-0 for the first time in franchise history, joining a select group of 20 teams in NBA history to achieve such a start. Historically, only four teams with a 9-0 or better start have gone on to win the championship, including the 1996-97 Chicago Bulls and the 1993-94 and 1994-95 Houston Rockets. The Cavs' strong start, led by their defensive prowess and offensive talents like Donovan Mitchell, offers them a chance to make history by potentially becoming the first team since 2000-01 to win a title after such a start.
