Thoughts on Cavaliers cutting Sloan, signing Shaun Livingston

Donald Sloan is a good dude. He did not deserve to be cut on Christmas Day by the Cleveland Cavaliers. Unfortunately for Sloan, Shaun Livingston was cut on December 23 and the Cavs had until 5pm on the 25th to sign him by league rules. The Cavaliers felt Livingston was a better option so Sloan is out and he is in. What Livingston brings is a unique dynamic to the backup...

3 things to do to beat the Cavs tonight

The sad fact is that the Celtics are a .500 team right now who have lost 3 in a row. The good news is that we're playing against Cavs tonight, a 5-21 team, at TD Garden, which at first glance looks like a perfect setting to shake things around. However, the Cavs can be a better team than their record shows: they have recently lost to Bucks by only 4 and Knicks by only 1. Here...

Box Score: Timberwolves 91 Cavs 73

The Cavs fell behind on a Kevin Love jump hook in the first minute and never could quite catch up to the Timberwolves on Friday night. Scoring continues to be the Cavaliers’ glaring weekness, which is the worst weakness to have in a game where you try to outscore your opponent. The Wine and Gold shot just 34.5% from the field and scored a season low 73 points.   Alonzo Gee led...

Box Score: Bulls 95, Cavaliers 85

Well, this was pretty much a standard Cavs vs Bulls game. That makes 10 straight losses to the Bulls and the Cavaliers were never truly in this game. Cleveland fell behind by 15 early in this one. They did make things interesting a bit midway through the 4th quarter, but the Bulls never really let this one get in doubt and as we’ve seen happen lately, the Cavaliers’ comeback...

They’re a 2-8 basketball team on a six-game losing streak that just got considerably worse for the foreseeable future.

Cavaliers (2-8) vs. Sixers (7-4) - Game 11

OPENING TIP Without Kyrie Irving, the Cavaliers will have to well, theres no easy answer that to that one. Truth is, without Irving, we have no idea what the Cavs can do. With Irving, they won just two of their first 10 games. Some of that has to do with their brutal schedule, in which the Cavs played just three home games (and even that was a followed by a game the next night...

Box Score: Cavaliers 101, Nets 114

Anderson Varejao started this game on fire, setting the tone for what would be a monster game for him. He ends this one with a career high 35 points and added 18 rebounds to go with it. Kyrie Irving was huge in the 2nd half and he finished with 34 points of his own to go with his 8 assists. It wouldn’t be enough for the Cavaliers, though. The Cavaliers were actually winning after...

First Flopping Warnings Issued

Today is historic. The league has issued its first two warnings for flopping. As you might expect, it wasn't LeBron or Wade or Chalmers for any of their flops. It wasn't any of the known star who we know have flopped at least once this season already. They didn't even warn Paul Pierce for his flop this season. No, they picked two role players to make the patsies of...

Cavs fall to Bucks at the buzzer

Not the ideal start to the road trip I thought this game was headed to overtime. Trailing 102-100 with eight seconds left in the game, Kyrie Irving went the length of the floor and hit the game tying layup, leaving just seven tenths of a second on the clock. With that little time left, I figured that we were going to get an extra five minutes of the Cavs not guarding Mike Dunleavy...

Cavs buck up in defeat

Random stuff from the Cavaliers 105-102 loss at Milwaukee on Saturday night: Losses like this you can handle. It was a road game on the second night of a back-to-back for a young team. And if it wasnt for some awful play from the reserves in the second quarter well, lets not even talk about it. Im stating the obvious here, but through three games, the bench has been atrocious...
