After a bumpy stretch they have kind of righted the ship and are back on a 3 game winning streak.

Allen comes back, and the defense rights itself. That man is the key to the Cavs.

Mitchell goes off for 43 in a decisive Cavs win over the Lakers.

Good to have Allen back as well.

I'll say it again... Allen came back. Unfortunately, We have had to say that too often this year.

Allen is definitely a defensive force but when he goes 20/10 you can almost bank on a "W."

He opens up the offense a ton as well, its not even a question. One of the top screen settings in the NBA, and taken up a notch even more with Mitchell this year.

They gave up a 19-0 run over the final five minutes to lose at home to Sacramento.

That's one they should not have let slip away.


At least they held on the next night.

Losing to the Spurs will not go down as a good loss.

They need to learn how to win on the road.

Good guys get a needed win over the Mavs on the road. Luka did his usual thing for Dallas but looks disinterested in remaining with that crap show.

Ill probably eat my words here in a few days, but Dallas is a dream matchup for Cavs. Luka is amazing, but they are so Luka dominant and usage rate that it becomes easier for the defense. He kills you by getting the D to collapse and ability to create space 1 on 1. Maybe the best in the league. But Cavs have guys who can stick with him enough, and we have bigs who can switch and stick with him. Plus, we dont need to collapse the entire defense when he drives, just let Allen/Mobley do it alone. You could see how much he struggled even though he got 30. 

Played 7 very good to great quarters in Texas, and 1 awful one. Unfortunately it cost them and a 1-1 road trip. Time to make hay with a 6 game homestand. 4-2 would be good, but hoping for 5-1 and 6-0 would just be amazing.

Luka out I think helped the Mavs vs Cavs. But, got the W. 2-0 to start the 6 game homestand. Had to have these 2 and Jazz. the 3 after are tougher (MIL, TOR, BKN).

20-11 at this point and 3rd in the East. Solid start.

Best part is a double win (Browns/Cavs) for the hometown fans.

Great weekend for the Cavs with two comeback wins.  I was at the Pacers game Friday and it was a great atmosphere.  I really like this team.

Big game tonight vs a bad team to keep the momentum going into some huge matchups.

Cavs hold on at home to beat the Bucks. Was getting a little dicey as they almost squandered a 16 point lead heading into the 4th. Bucks cut it to 5 but Cavs put it away at the end. Mitchell was a stud, as usual, but 4th quarters seem to be a bit of an adventure for Garland.
