Today’s matchup against the Chicago Bulls left Cavs fans with an anxious feeling similar to the way they played about a month ago. Poor defensive efforts, losing trust in one and another, and turnovers are what kept Cleveland behind Chicago the entire game.

Needless to say, the Cavs took a step back tonight; here are highlights to learn and take a step forward from:
This was the final game of the NBA before the All Star break. Watch Kyrie Irving, LeBron James AND Matthew Dellavedova participate in events throughout the weekend!
