New York Knicks: Out Of Town Articles

We’re not in Kansas anymore. On Friday, the NBA released the Cleveland Cavaliers ’ full schedule for the upcoming season, and things are certainly a little bit different than they have been over the previous four years. Naturally, that’s what happens when LeBron James leaves. For the first time since the 2015-16 season, Cleveland is starting the year out on the road on Oct. 17 against...

Time to revisit the Trade Machine again! As Cleveland parts ways with it’s local superstar for the second time in eight years, their owner has a tough pill to swallow: bottoming out in 2019 to build the foundation for long-term success. Instead of trying to compete for a spot in the playoffs, Cleveland should face the music, trade away as much of their veteran core as possible and start...

It’s time for the Cavs to move on and figure out what’s next. There is no turning back for the Cleveland Cavaliers this off-season. With LeBron James now a Laker, the team must make moves to either contend for a playoff spot, or to improve their position in next year’s draft. Like in 2010, the remnants of the roster don’t make a ton of sense without James as the catalyst. However,...

Would things have been different if the Cavs and Griffin agreed on a new contract in the summer of 2017? July 1, 2018 — the day that LeBron James announced for the second time that he was leaving his hometown tea — is a date that will have an impact on the Cavaliers franchise for years to come. But a date that arguably helped to seal this fate for the Cavs? June 19, 2017 — the day the...

Broadly speaking, the Cavs will have two choices. Let’s be clear: It will be difficult, and perhaps impossible, for the Cavs to get back to the heights they reached in the past four years. Players like LeBron James come along, at best, once in a generation and even more rarely are born in, or near, the right city. Cleveland, though, has to move on and it has a choice to make this summer...

His contract will likely be used as trade bait. The Cavaliers will pick up Kendrick Perkins ’ $2.5 million 2018-19 contract option, according to a report from ESPN’s Dave McMenamin. And while the Cavs signed Perkins on the final day of the regular season to add a veteran presence, the big man is unlikely to actually be on the roster come fall. By picking up his contract, the team can...

The Duke prospect would be in play at No. 8 overall. As the Cavaliers play in the NBA Finals , they are also looking ahead to the NBA Draft on June 21. According to cleveland.com’s Joe Vardon , Duke big man Wendell Carter Jr. will workout for the Cavs on Wednesday prior to that evening’s Game 3. The 19-year-old recently worked out for the Bulls and told reporters in Chicago that...

Who exactly is in that rotation? Glad you asked. The Cavaliers will be sticking with a 10-man rotation, at least for this opening playoff series against the Indiana Pacers that kicks off Sunday. It’s important to keep in mind that this iteration of the Cavs has not played a single game together due to injuries, making the coaching staff’s jobs a little harder than it has been in years...

The Cavs punted this one early. With that, the Cavaliers ’ regular season is over. On Wednesday, the Cavs lost to the Knicks 110-98 in a game they decided to punt on early. LeBron James scored 10 points in 10 minutes to continue his streak of double-digit scoring games. He also played in all 82 games for the first time in his 15-year NBA career. John Holland led the Cavs with 21...

The Cavs wrap up the season finale. No Kevin Love, no Kyle Korver , no Rodney Hood. But LeBron James is playing! At least until he gets to 10 points. It’ll be good when the playoffs start.

Jeff Green may also be questionable, per Tyronn Lue. In their last game of the regular season, the Cavs will be down a few bodies. During his pregame media availability Tuesday, Cavs coach Tyronn Lue said that Kevin Love , Kyle Korver and Rodney Hood are out for Wednesday’s game against the Knicks . The Cavs will start a lineup of George Hill , Cedi Osman , LeBron James , Jeff...

And here we arrive at the end. We land at the last game of the regular season knowing much less about the Cleveland Cavaliers than we’d hope to. It feels like the team has played four 20-game seasons and this one is wrapping up all too quickly as the team still struggles to get completely healthy. A win against the Knicks and a 76ers loss to the Bucks would knock the Cavaliers up to the...
