It’s still very early in the year, but it’s starting to feel like this Cavaliers team has something special brewing – already having accomplished something that would’ve been almost unthinkable just one season ago.
On Monday night, the Cavaliers wrapped up a brutal early-season trip at 3-2 – shutting down one Hornets run after another and getting big performances from their big frontline, taking the 113-110 thriller at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte.
After splitting the first four games of the roadie out West against some of the Conference’s true heavyweights, J.B. Bickerstaff’s scrappy young squad came out of the locker room ready to rumble against the team that spoiled their home opener less than two weeks ago, taking a 19-point lead after a 40-point first quarter and holding off the Hornets the rest of the night.
