3. Chicago Bulls, October 27
Opening night will see the Cavs travel to the Windy City for a matchup with their main Central Division rivals. Cleveland was able to rebound with three straight wins to capture the Eastern Conference semifinals, and everyone in the Cavaliers’ organization is hoping that this game will be one that gets the season off on a strong note. From there, the path hopefully leads to another appearance in the NBA Finals—with a more positive result.
Next: San Antonio Spurs, January 14
