Recap: Cleveland 120, Phoenix 95 (Surviving the Tankathon)

The Cavaliers dispatched the pride of the Scottsdale YMCA Mens’ league, Friday night with relative ease. You can’t convince me that was an actual NBA team the Cavs were playing. The most important Cavalier developments happened elsewhere in the NBA, anyway. The “Suns” were without the best of their lineup, sophomore phenom Devin Booker, and in his absence were led by Troy Daniels (20 points), Marquis Chriss (19 points, 10 rebounds), and Josh Jackson (17 points on 20 shots). The game mattered little, and even the Chill Mode Cavs had no problem after a slow start that saw them down 23-27 at the end of the first.
