Yeah, the Cavaliers team from the late 80s would beat the Cavaliers team of today.
No, the 2008 Cavaliers team with LeBron James would beat the Cavaliers from 20 years ago with Brad Daugherty
I haven't followed NBA basketball for that long. I don't know.

Brad Daugherty thinks his Cavaliers team from the late 80s could beat today's Cleveland team featuring MVP LeBron James. Daugherty admits that LeBron James would be a big problem, but he believes that the defensive skills of players like Larry Nance and Hot Rod Williams could stifle James' offense a bit. For offense, Daugherty thinks that the pick-and-roll that he ran with Mark Price would give the current Cavs team some problems. Brad also thought that Ron Harper would pose a threat too.

Who do you think would win?

    We love you Brad, but you're wrong on this one. LeBron James represents the best player today, and is the best player Cleveland has ever had. Big Z, Delante West, Verajo, Mo Williams and the remaining guys make up a remarkable team. They use moves and make shots that the team of the 80s never thought of. . . .

    those 80s -90s cavs teams were really good,they would beat the cavs of today simply because they had a better bench, an awsome point guard[price], and good big men.lebron would get his stats but the 08-09 cavs would still lose.

    The 80's cavs team would win only if it became a free throw shootout. Otherwise Labron would'Jordanize' them.

    Why does he think that? His Cavaliers could never beat the Michael Jordan-era Bulls, how could they beat LeBrons Cavs?

    I've said for years that the only thing that kept that great 80's team title-less was Michael Jordan. So, in that same way of thinking, LBJ would carry his team over Daughtery's. That 80's team lacked a superstar player that both Lebron's Cavs and MJ's Bulls had.

    While I loved Brad Daugherty and Mark Price I don't think they could hold a candle against King James and Mo Williams. Nah....they couldn't do it.

    great question!!! I love the old team. I think Craig Ehlo was there too. how does LeBron do it? he won MVP his talent is undeniable the other guys are total stiffs!!!! Michael Jordan had Scottie Pippen and Horace Grant then Dennis Rodman, and of course Phil Jackson. The Cavs might win the whole thing though. I would love to see LeBron vs. Kobe!!!!

    Yeah, Craig Ehlo and Phil Hubbard were the other Cavs that saw a good chunk of playing time on that team.

    Players have evolved in skills. The game may have been a little slower twenty years ago and players like "King James" only appear once every 10 - 20 years. Besides, that's a fantasy, today, they'd be too old to win...
