Cavaliers vs Hawks preview: LeBron and company arrive for only 2015-2016 visit

It has been 316 days since the Cleveland Cavaliers set foot in Philips Arena, and things didn't go particularly well for the Atlanta Hawks on that night. Hawks fans will undoubtedly remember May 22, 2015 as the day that the 2014-2015 season unofficially ended, as Atlanta fell into an 0-2 hole against Cleveland in the NBA Playoffs, but because of the way NBA scheduling works, LeBron James and his team make only one visit to Georgia this season.

That visit takes place on Friday night in front of a national television audience.
