The Cavaliers offensive machine that came into Sunday’s game averaging over 120 points over the last three games might not have been hitting on all cylinders. But even on a tough night, they still have the force of nature that is LeBron James – and the four-time MVP was in rare form in Philly – […]
Cavaliers down Wizards 121-115
January 7, 2016 by
Like the previous four foes before them, the Wizards found out the hard way that it’s going to be a “pick-your-poison” situation when the Wine and Gold roll into the gym at full-strength. LeBron James tenderized the Wizards through the first three quarters, netting 30 of his game-high 34 points heading to the fourth. But […]
Cavaliers beat Raptors 122-100
January 5, 2016 by
Despite LeBron James watching from the sideline in the fourth quarter, Cavaliers went off for 64 second-half points, blowing past the Raptors, 122-100, to win their fourth straight game and improve to 15-1 at The Q. With a daunting road trip looming later this week, home contests against Orlando and Toronto proved to be just […]
Cavaliers beat Nuggets 93-87
December 30, 2015 by
After a drama filled four-game West Coast road trip – from the huge Christmas Day matchup in Oakland to the blowout loss in Portland to Monday night’s thriller in Phoenix, the Cavaliers needed a nice, one-sided win over a struggling club. Tuesday night’s virtually wire-to-wire win over a shorthanded Nuggets squad was just the remedy, […]
Cavaliers down Suns 101-97
December 29, 2015 by
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 […]
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 […]
Cavaliers beat Celtics 89-77
December 16, 2015 by
When healthy, the Wine and Gold are loaded with offensive weaponry. But they can be just as impressive on the other end – and when they decide to clamp down on an opponent defensively, they’re almost impossible to beat. In what was billed as a bare-knuckle grudge match between the up-and-coming Celtics and a veteran […]
Cavaliers beat Blazers 105-100
December 9, 2015 by
After three-and-a-half games mired in an early-season funk, Cavaliers coach David Blatt saw that his squad needed a serious spark. And in the second half of Tuesday’s matchup with the Blazers, the Wine and Gold went small to get a big win – overcoming an 18-point deficit to snap their slide with a 105-100 win […]
Wizards upset Cavaliers 97-85
December 2, 2015 by
The struggling Wizards – who came into the game riding a four-game losing streak, dropping three of those by an average of 21.3 per – took advantage of a slow-starting Cavaliers club, racing out to a big second-half lead and holding on to hand Cleveland its first home loss of the 2015-16 season, a 97-85 […]
Cavaliers beat Magic 117-103
November 24, 2015 by
Despite being down four of their top eight rotation players, it’d be a misnomer to call these Cavaliers “shorthanded.” And it’d be disrespectful to a young Magic squad that found themselves overmatched by Cleveland’s undermanned lineup. Still without Kyrie Irving and Iman Shumpert – and missing Mo Williams and Timofey Mozgov on Monday night – […]
