Taking a look at how the Cavaliers are rated in this year’s crop of NBA video games

So I’ve got Cavs fever on this sunny Tuesday afternoon. Sue me.

Earlier today we took a look at Kevin Love’s unorthodox free throw form in the recently-released NBA Live 2016 demo. I don’t really know why everyone is so shocked by these glitches, we all know Live hasn’t been relevant since you were bumping to Chingy’s “Right Thurr” while navigating the menus like a decade ago. But whatever. The ratings for this year’s batch of hoops games have all finally been released. Judge away.
