The little mini-drama in the Cavaliers’ locker room after the 96-95 loss to the Miami Heat on Monday at The Q was almost as interesting as what happened at the end of the game. As reporters crowded around Kyrie Irving’s locker to ask what happened on the last play of the game and why he […]

If there’s one thing everyone associated with the Cavaliers can agree on, it’s that they were not ready to play on Sunday in a lackluster 91-77 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers at Wells Fargo Center. Since they fell behind, 19-3, to open the game, that was pretty obvious. What no one can say is, ‘Why?’ […]

The NBA world righted itself Friday. One day after stumbling for the first time in 14 games, the New York Knicks won. And the Cavaliers, as has become so typical this season, lost in another listless outing, falling to the Knicks, 101-91, in front of 19,430 at The Q. With the victory, the Knicks have […]

The Cavaliers have made many mistakes on defense this season, but Tristan Thompson committed a season first that led to the Detroit Pistons’ 111-104 victory over the Cavaliers on Wednesday night at The Q. “I guess it’s my fault,” Thompson said after the Cavs lost their second straight to fall to 24-54. Kyrie Irving finished […]

What is it with the Cavaliers and 20-point leads? So far this season, they have led the Miami Heat by 27 points, the Phoenix Suns by 26, the New York Knicks by 22 and the Indiana Pacers by 20 — and they’ve lost all four games. On Tuesday at Bankers Life Field House, they turned […]

The Cavaliers won’t win many games shooting 36 percent from the field as they did Sunday night at The Q. Of course, they also haven’t had  many opportunities to play an opponent on a more dubious slide than their own. While the Cavs ended a 10-game losing streak on Friday, the Orlando Magic has been […]

After looking lifeless in Wednesday’s 113-95 loss to the Brooklyn Nets, the Cavaliers post-game media conference was dominated by different forms of the same question. “Have you guys checked out?” Although no one was able to find the right words for an overly convincing denial, the Cavaliers used their play on Friday to send a […]

Perhaps the question was inevitable after watching the lifeless Cavaliers stumble to their 10th straight loss, a 113-95 defeat at the hands of the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday night at The Q. The crowd booed its displeasure intermittently all night. Cavs coach Byron Scott was asked if he was worried about losing his job. “Not […]

When it was all over and the dust settled, coach Byron Scott was thrilled with the fight his team showed in a 102-94 loss to the Atlanta Hawks on Monday in Philips Arena. From Marreese Speights tying his season high with 23 points to Daniel Gibson’s second-quarter ejection to Luke Walton’s fourth-quarter shove of Ivan […]

Kyrie Irving envisioned a different outcome after returning to the Cavaliers’ lineup for the first time since he suffered a sprained left shoulder on March 10 in Toronto. “I just wanted to win, regardless,” said Irving, whose 31 points were not enough to prevent the Cavs from losing to the Hornets on Sunday at New […]
