Wednesday nights matchup with Dallas might not have been the best game of the season. But it might be the strangest.

Regardless of who’s in or out of the Jazz lineup, Salt Lake City has not been kind to the Cavaliers. That trend continued for the Wine and Gold on Monday night – as the Jazz spoiled Cleveland’s plans of a perfect road trip, pulling away to hand Cavaliers the 94-85 loss, their eighth loss in […]

March 11, 2016 by
With two of the NBA’s all-time greats sharing the floor for the final time, Thursday’s matchup in Tinseltown was worthy of its historic weight.

With just 20 games separating the Cavaliers and a return to the postseason tournament, a West Coast trip was the perfect way to tune up for the final stretch run. And getting the Big Three rolling in the first win of that roadie is an ideal way to start. Kyrie Irving led everyone with 30 […]
Grizzlies upset Cavaliers 106-103
March 8, 2016 by
Monday night’s surprising loss to the Grizzlies can be attributed to several factors. That the Cavaliers had game-planned for a different set of Grizzlies.

Over the previous five games, the Cavaliers had successfully beaten teams up by halftime. But on Monday night, the Wine and Gold couldn’t produce that same level of intensity against the Pistons. Instead, the Cavaliers gave up 33 points in the first period and it was obvious by the middle of the third quarter that […]
Cavaliers beat Thunder 115-92
February 22, 2016 by
The Cavaliers closed the season’s unofficial first half in style – manhandling three straight Western Conference opponents at The Q. But dropping the Pelicans, Kings and Lakers on their home floor is one thing; blowing out a Thunder team in Oklahoma City is something completely different. That’s just what the shorthanded Wine and Gold did […]
