Cleveland Cavaliers

Much to J.B. Bickerstaff’s chagrin, there were no missed calls at the end of Wednesday’s game.

The NBA said Thursday that officials were correct in not calling a foul on Jarrett Allen in the closing seconds of regulation of Game 5 between the Cavaliers and Pistons on Wednesday night.

"I think he’s gotten to a nice equilibrium where he’s aggressive to score, but can read the geography of the court.”

In the span of 22 seconds during overtime of Game 5 of the Eastern Conference semifinals against the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday night, Harden did all this for the Cleveland Cavaliers — made a free throw, missed a free throw, blocked a shot, got a rebound and threw the ball away. “He never wavered,” Cavaliers coach Kenny Atkinson said. This is why Cleveland made the decision to go get Harden in a trade three months ago.

Walking through the concourse and to the parking lot around a bunch of elated Cavs fans — who knew they got away with something — […]

The Detroit Pistons are looking to avoid a third consecutive loss and the precipice of elimination tonight as they host the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 5 of their best-of-seven series. The good news for the Pistons is that the Cavs are winless on the road in these playoffs, including dropping the first two to Detroit. […]

Can Cleveland finally take control of this series?

The shooting guard was replaced in the starting lineup Wednesday night by Daniss Jenkins. Robinson is averaging 12.2 points in the playoffs and brings efficient 3-point shooting to the lineup. Jenkins, who was on a two-way contract just a few months ago, entered the pivotal game against the Cavs averaging 7.5 points and 3.3 assists in the series.

The Pistons take on the Cavaliers in Game 5 of their second-round playoff series.

I can’t say I was surprised that the Detroit Pistons dropped Game 4 in Cleveland and saw their 2-0 series lead tighten to 2-2.

A seven-game series suddenly becoming a […]
