The undefeated Cleveland Cavaliers earned their fourth win on Monday night and it wasn’t an easy one.
The Cavs traveled to New York and took down the fierce Knicks, which was their biggest win of the young season.
Following that victory, Brian Windhorst told ESPN Cleveland why he is so impressed by the team and what they have done so far in 2024-25.
“The whole team, just in general, their aggression on offense is so much better,” Windhorst said, giving special praise to Darius Garland, Donovan Mitchell, and Evan Mobley.
“I literally liked everything about it,” Windhorst stated about this latest win.

Windhorst said Garland is “playing like a max player” and it’s hard to argue with that.
He scored 34 points in Monday’s game, which was a game-high and a strong statement about the sort of season he wants to have.
As for Mitchell, he scored 25 points of his own but was wise to defer often to Garland, who couldn’t seem to miss.
Mobley has been great so far this season, averaging 17.8 points and 9 rebounds, and he was a huge help too with his 17 points and 8 rebounds.
Across the board, the Cavaliers had a ton to offer and fans went to bed very happy with what they saw.
It’s still too soon to tell but this could be the best iteration of the team in years.
They are taking their 4-0 record back home and will face the Los Angeles Lakers and Orlando Magic in the days ahead.
If they secure wins against both teams, all NBA fans will have to admit that the Cavaliers might be the best team in the Eastern Conference, even with some very stiff competition.
