So where do we go from here? The Cleveland Cavaliers had some realistic opportunities to stay close to the Chicago Bulls in the #10 spot in the NBA Eastern Conference race with a chance then to play in the “play-in tournament” to get to the NBA postseason.
That chance was unfortunately squandered by the Cavs as they lost to both the Bulls and the Detroit Pistons this past week. Now the Cavs stand at 20-37, four games back of the Bulls, with little hope to get that #10 spot.
