The Cavaliers literally could not have gotten off to a better start to their current five-game road trip – stifling the Nuggets and Clippers to build off a home win over Atlanta last Saturday night. And on Friday, they look to extend their win streak to four – taking on Anthony Davis and the banged-up Lakers at STAPLES Center.
J.B. Bickerstaff’s young squad has been one of the surprise stories in the league so far – dropping three straight Playoff teams and holding each under the century mark in the process.
On Wednesday night in L.A., the Cavs completely stymied Ty Lue’s Clippers, holding them to 36 percent shooting, including 9-of-41 from beyond the arc.
