Donovan Mitchell has normally been a rock-solid playoff performer dating back to his days with the Utah Jazz. However, Mitchell is not having the best of times facing the Detroit Pistons defense over the past two games. And perhaps Mitchell has already hit rock bottom in this year’s playoffs, as he struggled mightily on Friday […]

It’s no secret how much of a hard worker LeBron James is. James has remained a top-caliber player in the NBA even at age 41 due to his incredible ability to take care of his body — which requires an incredible amount of hard work. Throughout his career, James has had a legendary work ethic, […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers finally broke through and won their first playoff game on the road in this year’s playoffs, and that could not have come at a better time as they’ve now taken a 3-2 series lead in their semifinal clash against the Detroit Pistons courtesy of a 117-113 OT win in Game 5. They […]

Donovan Mitchell is the talk of the town after he exploded for 39 points in the second half of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ all-important 112-103 victory over the Detroit Pistons in Game 4 to even up their Eastern Conference semifinal series at 2-2. Mitchell woke up from a bit of a slumber in the first half […]

Something or someone must have lit a fire underneath Donovan Mitchell at halftime of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ 112-103 win over the Detroit Pistons in Game 4 of their Eastern Conference semifinal clash. Mitchell, after scoring just four points in the first half, exploded for 39 points in the second half (21 in the third, 18 […]

Evan Mobley has had his ups and downs in this year’s playoffs, but even amid all his inconsistencies on the offensive end, he has continued to be the Cleveland Cavaliers’ defensive anchor. On Monday night, in the Cavs’ 112-103 win over the Detroit Pistons in Game 4 of their semifinal series to even things up […]

Donovan Mitchell took it upon himself to carry the Cleveland Cavaliers in their 112-103 win over the Detroit Pistons in Game 4 of their semifinal contest, as he woke up from his slumber in the first half to score 39 points in the second half, the most points any player has ever scored in a […]

James Harden is being haunted by some past playoff demons that he just couldn’t seem to exorcise. After the Cleveland Cavaliers lost Game 2 of their Eastern Conference semifinal clash against the Detroit Pistons, 107-97, to fall down 2-0 in the series, Harden became a lightning rod for criticism once again after he scored just […]

It is time for the Cleveland Cavaliers to do some deep soul-searching. They have now fallen behind in their semifinal matchup against the Detroit Pistons, 2-0, after suffering a 107-97 loss on Thursday night — with James Harden not having the best of nights. Harden finished with a paltry 10 points on 3-13 shooting from […]

James Harden is straight up not having a good time dealing with the Detroit Pistons in the Cleveland Cavaliers’ semifinal matchup against the Eastern Conference’s top-seeded team this season. In Game 2, Harden had another night to forget. He finished with just 10 points on a brutal 3-13 shooting from the field, and he turned […]

One major subplot in the Cleveland Cavaliers’ Eastern Conference semifinal clash against the Detroit Pistons is that JB Bickerstaff will be coaching against his former team. Bickerstaff was the Cavs’ head coach from 2020, when he took over from John Beilein, until 2024, when Cleveland decided to move on from him after they lost in […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers may still be reeling from the dogfight they had with the Toronto Raptors in the first round of the 2026 NBA playoffs. On Tuesday night, the Cavs came out of the gates with so much lethargy, falling behind by 16 points at the end of the first quarter of Game 1 in […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers took what ended up being a comfortable 114-102 win over the Toronto Raptors in Game 7 of their first-round matchup, but they had to overcome some nervous moments to get there. The Cavs started things off with a bit of lethargy, and one play summed things up for Cleveland through the first […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers made a mess of themselves in crunch time of their 112-110 loss to the Toronto Raptors courtesy of a game-winner from RJ Barrett. It seemed like the Raptors were going to throw their whole season away with a Jamal Shead miss from the charity stripe to keep the Cavs in the lead, […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers looked to be in cruise control in their first-round series against the Toronto Raptors, as they took the first two games of the series without much fuss. But the narrative of the series has changed, as the Raptors have utilized homecourt advantage to full effect and have taken Games 3 and 4 […]

In the playoffs, every possession matters. Diving for loose balls and fighting for rebounds with everything one has is the bare minimum come postseason time. On Sunday, however, a scary moment unfolded when Cleveland Cavaliers star Donovan Mitchell attempted to save a ball from going out of bounds, as he ran over some fans along […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers, being a veteran team led by players with plenty of playoff experience, had to have known that the Toronto Raptors were going to be bringing their A-game on Thursday as they stared at the prospect of going down 3-0 in the series. And the Raptors did play with the desperation that comes […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers were on the second night of a back-to-back on Monday night, and they faced one of the worst teams in the league since the All-Star break in the Memphis Grizzlies. The Grizzlies, ever since trading Jaren Jackson Jr., have prioritized getting a better draft pick in next year’s draft, so this gave […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers have been missing an underrated piece all season long in Max Strus, the team’s starting small forward. Strus underwent surgery prior to the start of the 2025-26 campaign and has proceeded to miss the Cavs’ first 67 games. But on Sunday night, despite Cleveland’s disappointing 130-120 defeat to the Dallas Mavericks, Strus […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers somehow found a way to shed salary and improve the team at the same time prior to the trade deadline. They were able to trade the oft-injured Darius Garland to the Los Angeles Clippers for James Harden, ship Lonzo Ball to the Utah Jazz in a salary dump, and bring in Dennis […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers went out and broke up the core four on Tuesday, sending Darius Garland and a second-round pick to the Los Angeles Clippers to bring in James Harden via trade. Harden may be 36 years of age, but he’s averaging over 25 points and eight assists this season, and he represents a short-term […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers had such high expectations for themselves this season. After all, they have to be playing with a chip on their shoulder in the aftermath of seeing their dream 64-win season come to waste in the second round of the playoffs against the eventual NBA Finals runner-up, Indiana Pacers. However, the Cavs have […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers have been painfully mid throughout the 2025-26 season thus far, a steep downfall from where they were last year. The pressure is mounting on a Cavs team that is boasting the most expensive player payroll in the association, and some changes may be needed to squeeze a deep playoff run out of […]

At present, the Cleveland Cavaliers are sitting in eighth place in the Eastern Conference standings with a 20-17 record; they are one loss away from tying their total for the entirety of the 2024-25 campaign, and they have arguably been the most disappointing team in the NBA this season. And their lack of bench production […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers have to be pleased that they got away with a 113-108 win over the Denver Nuggets on Friday night after a lethargic performance almost all night long. However, the Cavs have to be concerned that they barely got over the injury-ravaged Nuggets and that Evan Mobley doesn’t look anywhere close to being […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers have, bar none, been the most disappointing team in the NBA this season. Coming off a 64-win campaign, the Cavs were expected to run the table in the Eastern Conference once more, at least in the regular season. But even their usual level of excellence in the regular season has escaped them, […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers are a mess right now, as all the good vibes they built from their 64-win team last season appear to be all but gone. The Cavs are coming off a brutal 127-111 loss to the flatlining Chicago Bulls — an inexcusable defeat even though they’re missing the services of Evan Mobley. At […]

It can be a bit concerning that the Cleveland Cavaliers, after flaming out in spectacular fashion during the 2025 NBA playoffs are sleepwalking through the 2025-26 campaign. They’ve been okay, but the air of dominance that they carried themselves with last year, even just in the regular season, seems to be all but gone now. […]

To start the 2025-26 campaign, injury woes have beset the Cleveland Cavaliers. Darius Garland was already out to begin the year after undergoing toe surgery during the offseason. But then Sam Merrill and Jarrett Allen joined Garland on the mend, putting the Cavs’ mettle to the test this early in the new season. Nonetheless, on […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers lost in their first game of the preseason against the Chicago Bulls, 118-117, with Thomas Bryant having an embarrassing sequence in the final few seconds of the game that led to him slapping the broadcast camera. While grabbing the win would have been good for morale, losing in preseason is not the […]

On Tuesday night, the Cleveland Cavaliers opened up their exhibition season with a contest against the Chicago Bulls. While these games are usually as close to meaningless as possible, teams always want to start the season off as well as possible — with a victory. Alas, Thomas Bryant, one of the Cavs’ offseason acquisitions, could […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers are looking to redeem themselves after they saw their 64-win 2024-25 season come to an abrupt end at the hands of eventual 2025 NBA Finals runner-up Indiana Pacers. They seem to be leaning more into a defensive identity, as evidenced by their decision to bring Lonzo Ball in via a trade with […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers will be out for blood next season after they were humbled by the Indiana Pacers to end their dream season in which they won 64 games and entered the postseason as a title favorite. The Cavs might simply be running it back, with their core four of Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, Evan […]

Donovan Mitchell is still at the peak of his powers as a basketball player, and he still has plenty to prove in his basketball career — especially when he hasn’t yet made it to the Conference Finals despite consistently being in the playoffs. Moreover, Mitchell definitely has a big chip on his shoulder heading into […]

LeBron James is arguably the greatest basketball player of all-time and arguably the greatest floor-raiser in the history of the NBA. The mere presence of James back in his heyday meant 50 wins and a near-guaranteed NBA Finals appearance, and there may not be a more incredible tour-de-force than his final season with the Cavs […]

Larry Nance Jr. is going back home. On the second day of free agency, Nance decided to sign with the Cleveland Cavaliers, making his return to the team he had already spent three and a half seasons for in the past. Being a second apron team, the Cavs can only offer Nance a one-year deal, […]

After another disappointing playoff exit, the Cleveland Cavaliers have another offseason filled with a ton of difficult decisions. Standing pat appears to be the best option for the Cavs, but that’s going to be a hard sell to a fanbase that’s seen the team fall flat on its face in the playoffs for three consecutive […]

Max Strus has been taking the initiative in the Cleveland Cavaliers locker room to be the team’s vocal leader; after all, Strus was the only one on the roster who’s made it all the way to the NBA Finals in the past, so he knows what it takes to be there for his team right […]

The vibes around the Cleveland Cavaliers right now are grim. After putting up a 64-win season that had many fans dreaming of an NBA championship run, they saw their season come to an unfortunate end after they lost their second-round series to the Indiana Pacers in five games — with the Cavs unable to push […]
