Well, the Cavaliers are again back to their winning ways after the slip up in Milwaukee & have finally won again without LeBron James in the lineup. The last time the latter happened was March 13, 2007, a 124-100 win in the Q vs. Sacramento, a game which saw Sasha Pavlovic go for 25 points. [...]

So here we are in the midst of the Cavs’ longest non-All-Star-break break since November. The beautiful weather in Cleveland (for early March) has been a welcome thing. And aside from a ton of dog poop in my yard, the warm weather has also revealed a stroke of genius on the part of [...]

I demand a Camakazee write-up on our free throw shooting, particularly Jamison & LeBron.
Yes, I could get this myself, but you guys do it so much better than I do!
This request came from RCF member InBoobieWeTrust. Sorry IBWT, but you’re going to have to accept it from the poor man’s Cam this time, haha.

The participants of this chat included myself, Len Kehoe, who does a fantastic job on the Numbers Don’t game previews, John Krolik from Cavs: The Blog, and Jacob [...]

This post is in no way meant to intrude on my colleague MoFlo’s excellent game preview work here at NumbersDont. He breaks down the opponent on an every-game basis. I’m merely here to add some views on a once great rivalry that has completely disappeared. And admittedly, it makes me a little sad… bear in [...]

The Cavaliers are on yet another 5 game winning streak. It’s their 5th of the season, and the 11th of the past 2 seasons. In 8 of those instances, the winning streak would eventually end on the road. They have now held their last 5 opponents to 97.2 points per game on 43.9% shooting, including 30.1% [...]

Dear Numbers Don’t,
After watching LeBron James torture the Knicks all season long, I told my friend that he doesn’t dominate any other team like he does New York. He made the argument that he never played that well against the Knicks until recently. I remember some big games from LeBron versus New York in the [...]

The Cavaliers have now won 4 in a row after dropping 3 straight right after the all-star break and will be playing their 3rd straight game without Shaquille O’Neal guarding the paint. This will also be the 1st full game that they will play against a true center without Shaq or Z in the lineup. [...]
