Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson was reminded once again how volatile his profession can be, as the Dallas Mavericks fired Jason Kidd shortly before Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals tipped off. The Hall of Fame point guard guided the squad to the NBA Finals just two years earlier. A few hours later, […]

Just about everyone outside of the Cleveland Cavaliers is having quite a time taking shots at James Harden.

The Cleveland Cavaliers had a win in their hands in Game 1 of their 2026 Eastern Conference Finals series against the New York Knicks.

The Cleveland Cavaliers’ 2025-26 campaign has not gone exactly as expected. After posting a 64-18 record last regular season, the Cavs were unable to sustain momentum until the new year began.

Jarrett Allen is not used to hearing MVP chants, especially in the NBA playoffs.

He did not melt on Sunday, however. And Cavs fans took […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers encountered a fierce and physical Game 7 challenge from the Toronto Raptors.

NBA fans have been waiting for Evan Mobley to morph into an undisputed powerhouse for a couple of seasons now.

Because the Donovan Mitchell-led Cleveland Cavaliers have been unable to mount a deep run in the NBA playoffs, it is obviously much harder to appreciate everything the players have accomplished over the last few years.

A reunion between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Kevin Love is possible if the veteran big man is bought out by the Utah Jazz.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have found themselves in early trouble in the second round of the 2025 NBA Playoffs against the Indiana Pacers, who took Game 1 in convincing fashion.
