With a new season comes a renewed sense of hope for every team in the NBA, including the Cleveland Cavaliers who lost LeBron James to the Los Angeles Lakers.

And Cavaliers head coach Ty Lue is putting on a most positive face regarding the state of the offense without James.

The Cavs will count heavily on Kevin Love, as well as rookie point guard Collin Sexton. They’ve also been rumored to be in the mix for Minnesota’s Jimmy Butler. The last time they lost James coincided with a franchise worse losing streak, so Lue is clearly working hard to ensure that history doesn’t repeat itself.
