The Cleveland Cavaliers have a long summer ahead of them. The most pressing issue will be determining who belongs on the team next season. When asked if Evan Mobley will ‘definitively’ be back, Koby Altman gave a somewhat shaky response. “Umm, yeah, I mean, he’s part of our future,” said Altman. Altman’s comments are open […]
Stop me if you’ve heard this before: The Eastern Conference is completely wide open. OK, maybe it’s open for every other good team but the New York Knicks, who swept the No. 4 Cleveland Cavaliers. But one thing these playoffs have revealed is that the East is volatile, where teams with the most two-way depth […]

Following the emphatic series loss in the Eastern Conference Finals, the Cleveland Cavaliers profile as one of the most interesting teams this offseason. The Cavs are thoroughly in “win-now” mode, and they have linked to a player that fits that timeline in Giannis Antetokounmpo. While the Cavs have had interest for several months now, Antetokounmpo […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers have some changes to make this summer. They're just over the second apron, and they will need to cut salary to get out from under the restrictive measures that the second apron brings. Aside from that, they need to figure out if their Core Four is what they want to move forward with. Insider Brian Windhorst feels they're going to have to revisit a trade offer that they were said to have no interest in earlier in the season. Brian Windhorst expects the Cavs ...
Everyone is wondering what LeBron James’ decision will be this summer. As an unrestricted free agent, LeBron has all career options available to him. He can return to the Lakers, join another team, or retire from the game. While we don’t yet know which way he’s leaning on any of those pathways, one thing being […]
The New York Knicks absolutely cleaned the floor with the Cleveland Cavaliers, sweeping them in four straight in the Eastern Conference Final, including a 37-point demolition in Game 4. The Cavs love their Core Four of Donovan Mitchell, James Harden, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. But what will this team do to get to the next level? They tried replacing Darius Garland with Harden, and as could have been predicted, it didn't pay off in the playoffs, as The Beard has never gotten it done i...
CLEVELAND — Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson has been in the crossfire of many commentators after this playoff run. His comments about analytics didn’t sit well with many, and the team also underperformed in several key moments — including during the Game 1 collapse against the New York Knicks. The coach is going to […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers didn’t trade for a one-year rental. All indicators point towards James Harden returning to the team this summer after opting out to restructure his deal. “Yes. 100%,” said Harden on whether he wants to be back in Cleveland. “Definitely want to be here. I think we found something. It’s tough not ending […]
Game 1 was a confirmation of a cultural problem. The Cleveland Cavaliers surrendered a 22-point lead in the fourth quarter, not gradually, not begrudgingly, but as if they had simply decided to stop. The New York Knicks didn’t steal the game so much as Cleveland left it unlocked, engine running, keys in the ignition. What […]
For the first time since 1999, the New York Knicks are heading to the NBA Finals. The Knickerbockers completed the sweep of the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference Finals on Monday night with a 130-93 victory.

Many fans of the Cleveland Browns are also overall Cleveland sports fans, with a lot of Ohio State Buckeyes mixed in. On Memorial Day night, the Cleveland Cavaliers faltered in the Eastern Conference Finals, a big step up from the last couple of seasons, but a big failure on the bigger stage. Many fans and […]
Tyrese Proctor’s rookie season came to an end Monday night as the New York Knicks beat the Cleveland Cavaliers, 130-93, sweeping the series, 4-0. Proctor, who rarely got off the bench in the playoffs, got 9 minutes here. He didn’t score, but he got 1 rebound and 2 assists. The Knicks move on and will […]
CLEVELAND — The leap between being a great team and being a championship-caliber one is the hardest to make. This series shows that the Cleveland Cavaliers have a lot of work to do before they can say they’re on that level. This was supposed to be a somewhat even matchup with the New York Knicks, […]

The fourth smack to […]
The Knicks return to Rocket Arena tonight, leading the Eastern Conference Finals 3-0 over the exhausted Cavaliers.

Exactly one year ago, the Knicks stepped onto the court at Gainbridge Fieldhouse to face the Pacers. Our heroes had lost the first two games of the Eastern Conference Finals, each by five points or less. Favored to win the series, New York stunned us by dropping those two at Madison Square Garden, but our […]
Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson’s honesty and transparency are among his best attributes. He’s always going to tell you the truth, which is different than most coaches who give trite answers that mean very little. That honesty, though appreciated by me, might not always be welcomed by everyone. Especially when his group is down […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers had a turbulent regular season after seemingly everything went exactly their way the year before. The one player who was dependable night in and night out to keep things on the rails was Donovan Mitchell. They don’t come close to putting up 52 wins if it wasn’t for his steady hand on […]
LeBron James has a huge decision to make this offseason. As a free agent, does he stay in LA with the Lakers, go home to Cleveland for one final hurrah with the Cavaliers, go into retirement, or... Shock us with a completely unexpected move? Andy Bailey at Bleacher Report picks the latter, and he projects LeBron to choose to team up with Nikola Jokic with the Denver Nuggets to go after another NBA title. If he really is willing to play for the minimum (which is probably what the Clevelan...
