Cavs waive Sanders in move before playoff roster finalized

April 14 06:36 2017

The Miami Heat kept their National Basketball Association (NBA) play-off hopes alive on Monday with a 124-121 overtime victory over Cleveland that dropped the NBA champions to second in the Eastern Conference.

If the Cavs or Warriors don’t make the NBA Finals, it would be the ultimate surprise of the NBA Playoffs, but even more so, it would be a shame to not have a “Part 3” of the NBA Playoffs rivalry that we’ve all become accustomed to the past two years, with each team winning one NBA championship.

James is still the best player in the world but no longer a superhero. It starts with our opponent in two days.

The Celtics were assured of home-court advantage through the conference finals when Cleveland lost to Toronto minutes before the game ended.

A big reason is they’re waiting for a reason to once again fall in love with their team.

Sanders also played four games this season with the Canton Charge, the Cavaliers’ Development League affiliate. “They deserve that. They’ve been to back-to-back Finals and so until somebody knocks them off, as a defending champion, I think that’s a fair way to view things”, Stevens said, per Mass Live. The Pacers are now in the playoff picture but everything could change on the last day of the regular season. “We don’t fear anybody, but we don’t take anyone for granted and don’t feel we’re better than any body else”. “That’s all you can ask for”. All of those were when James was in Miami, but you get the point. “It’s time to put up or shut up and I think we’ll put up”. As one of the best players in this era of the NBA, James has rarely allowed his teams to get soft in the first series of the postseason.

“I thought the effort was great”, Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue said. “And I’ve been putting it together for a while”. But I’m taking the points here as a fade from the Cavs.

Tavares was originally drafted by the Hawks as the 43rd overall pick in the 2014 NBA Draft and saw action in 11 games in 2015-16 with averages of 2.3 points and 1.9 rebounds in 6.6 minutes. However, Lue hinted it was the rest of IN roster that anxious him.

“He was good”, Lue said. “The challenge is here and we’re up for the challenge”. We played through it and our guys got through it.

The task might be a little harder for the Pacers. Are the Cavs in trouble or will they flip the switch en route to LeBron’s 7th straight finals appearance?

The NBA regular season is coming to a close, and the big question is “can anyone beat the Golden State Warriors?”. The Cavs have downplayed the importance of the top seed in recent weeks, but they are just 20-21 on the road this season.

“The present is the only thing that matters”, he said. “We got some s– to work out”. It would have gotten Miami within eight going into the fourth. I know we have confidence to win. You guys can harp on the regular season.

Durant’s health will be one of the keys to the postseason after returning from a scary knee injury that occurred on February 28. “Every time I come to the Garden, Dolan has security guards on me”, Oakley told police, referring to Knicks owner James Dolan. Don’t do that to me.

When pressed to expand upon it, all he could say was “We’re good”.
