No player in the NBA this season has netted more points or has a higher scoring average in the final period than LeBron James. But on Monday night in Phoenix, Kyrie Irving reminded Cavalier fans why he’s often been dubbed “Mr. Fourth Quarter.” After struggling to find his stroke since returning to the lineup after […]

December 28, 2015 by
John Tortorella said that he needed more from a number of his veteran players, including Sunday night’s starting goaltender, Curtis McElhinney. One of the only reasons the Blue Jackets weren’t completely buried after 20 minutes was their goaltender, and McElhinney made 17 saves on 19 Florida Panthers shots in the opening frame.

[…]
Shorthanded Cavaliers down Thunder 104-100
December 18, 2015 by
With literally half their backcourt out of action for Thursday night’s nationally-televised affair, the Wine and Gold had an especially tall order against a Western Conference heavyweight that came to Cleveland riding a six-game win streak. But as they have dating back to last May, the Cavaliers went into next-man-up mode once again, pulling past […]
