LeBron James continued his barrage of the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday, with the four-time MVP still clearly upset after the team's blowout loss to the Golden State Warriors on Monday.
"I think we're a good team," LeBron said to CBSSports' Ken Berger. "But I don't think we're a great team right now. We've got to continue to get better. I really think it's absurd to think about May and June; it's not guaranteed, man."
While Cleveland has done an excellent job against weaker teams, they have struggled with the good ones, posting a combined record of 2-5 against the top three teams in both conferences.
Although the Cavaliers have never struggled to score the ball this season, their play on the other end isn't as strong, particularly of late, sitting 18th in defensive rating (104.2) in January.
"Very ugly to watch," LeBron added. "... Offensively, I don't think we were that bad. Defensively, we were a little behind. … We were a couple of steps behind, and against a team like that, it's like being a couple of steps behind a Patriots team right now. They're gonna make you pay; you can't do that."
At 28-11, the Cavaliers are still in a much better place than they were in 2014-15, when they took the Warriors to six games in the Finals despite starting the year 19-20.
With a home game against the San Antonio Spurs set at the end of the month, LeBron and Co. will be given another opportunity to prove they can hang with the game's elite.
