Road Warriors Weather the Month of March
So, our last chapter (February) ended with the good guys winning three straight after enduring a 10-game skid – snapping the skein on a late-game dunk by Lamar Stevens against Atlanta, blowing out the Rockets at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse and sinking Joel Embiid and the Sixers on the road in overtime.
Unfortunately for the Cavaliers – who came in at 13-21 – the adage about March coming in like a lion and going out like a lamb applied to their 2020-21 campaign.
The month itself began with an extension of the three-game win streak – with the Wine and Gold taking momentum from the overtime win in Philly to the Lone Star State, where they dropped the Rockets for the second time in a week to take their fourth straight, the longest win streak since March 2018.
