New-look Cavs try to pick up where they left off
The Cleveland Cavaliers were likely one of the few teams who weren't happy to see the All-Star break. After their massive trade deadline day, the new-look Cavs looked fantastic, beating the Celtics and the Thunder with their revamped squad. Overall, the team has won four games in a row. Now, they'll try to pick up where they left off. Thursday they face the Wizards, who are still without star point guard John Wall, but have won seven of their past 10 games, and are only 1 1/2 games behind the Cavs for third in the East.
Gortat throws it down
Marcin Gortat wasted no time Thursday night. On the first possession of the game, the Polish big man rolled through the lane and crushed a one-handed slam on LeBron James.
Hardaway Jr. goes up top for the alley-oop
Tim Hardaway Jr. showed off his athleticism against the Magic, connecting with new Knicks point guard Emmanuel Mudiay for this high-flying alley-oop.
