What looked on paper to be a rockfight of a matchup turned out to be the Cleveland Cavaliers’ best offensive performance thus far. It was apparent very early on that Cleveland’s offense was playing at a different pace and was in a higher gear than what the Detroit Pistons showed up with. In the past […]

CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Cavaliers are still a work in progress. There were stretches of clunky offense and unfocused defense. Neither cost the Cavs as they came away with a 118-113 win over the Milwaukee Bucks in their home opener. Sam Merrill has “probably been our best player” according to head coach Kenny Atkinson. That […]

Kenny Atkinson praised the Brooklyn Nets for how much trouble they gave his team last year before tipoff this evening.
