Share this: The NBA Finals are over, but Draymond Green isn’t done taking shots at the Cleveland Cavaliers. First, Green trolled the Cavs by wearing a “Quickie” shirt during the Golden State Warriors’ championship parade Thursday — a play on the Quicken Loans Arena, where Cleveland plays its home games. That was just the appetizer, though. Later in the day, Green put up an Instagram post mocking a video Cavs star LeBron James has posted shortly before the Warriors’ parade began. The video showed James hitting the gym and showing off his new haircut, to which Green replied: “Them dubs (Warriors) finally made him go bald!!! Congrats bro.” Insert about a million skull emojis here. James did have a pretty great response to Green for the shirt

Cavs Still Have Hope In NBA Finals Thanks To Record-Setting Performance
Share this: The Golden State Warriors have a 3-1 series lead in the NBA Finals, and the Cleveland Cavaliers have the best player in the world (sorry, Kevin Durant and Paul Pierce). So, don’t crown the Dubs NBA champions quite yet. Yes, the odds are stacked against the Cavs, even after their 137-116 blowout win over the Golden State Warriors in Game 4 at Quicken Loans Arena. Only three teams in NBA history have forced a Game 7 after falling behind 3-0, and none of them went on to win their respective series. And those teams weren’t facing one of the greatest basketball teams of all time with Durant, Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green all in the starting lineup. But those teams

Cavs’ J.R. Smith Tweets (Then Deletes) Bold NBA Finals Claim After Game 3
Share this: The odds are stacked against the Cleveland Cavaliers, but J.R. Smith isn’t giving up hope. The Cavs had a Game 3 win within reach Wednesday night, but the Golden State Warriors came storming back with an 11-0 run to take a commanding 3-0 series lead in the NBA Finals. Cleveland did come back from a 3-1 series deficit in last year’s NBA Finals against the Warriors, but having to win four straight against Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson is a whole different story. However, Smith still believes the Cavs have a chance. He later deleted the tweet, but nothing can be deleted from the internet. UPDATE (12:57 a.m. ET): Smith since has claimed that the tweet was the result of
Clever Cavs Fans’ License Plate Roasts Warriors’ Blown NBA Finals Lead
Share this: A well-placed joke about the Golden State Warriors blowing a 3-1 lead in the 2016 NBA Finals seems to never get old, but one Cleveland Cavaliers fan made his version more subtle. Cleveland native Kory Siverd got a license plate commemorating the event after his beloved Cavs won their first NBA title, but you won’t find the phrase “3-1 lead” anywhere on it. Siverd’s vanity plate takes a second to register for those who aren’t automatically thinking about basketball, but once you get it, it’s pretty brilliant. Siverd told the Cleveland Plain Dealer he was surprised when he saw his license plate being shared on Reddit and Twitter, and although he wasn’t looking for any attention, he’s glad Cavs fans are

Are Cavs Mocking Celtics On Twitter Morning After Game 2 Blowout Win?
Share this: Are the Boston Celtics’ struggles in the Eastern Conference finals now a laughing matter? That seems to be the case Saturday after the Cleveland Cavaliers posted a provocative message on Twitter, the morning after their blowout win over the Celtics in Game 2. The photo features forward J.R. Smith and center Tristan Thompson appear laughing at the caption. Cleveland raced to a 2-0 series lead with the 130-86 rout. The loss was the Celtics’ worst postseason setback in 22 years and second-heaviest of all time. Most already are counting Boston out of NBA Finals contention, but it’s probably too soon for Cleveland to start laughing about it. The teams will meet at 8:30 p.m. ET on Sunday night at Quicken Loans Arena in Game
