Road-Weary Cavaliers Fall in Return Home
Wrap-Up -- After wrapping up an 11-day, six-game trip – having played three of those contests in the final four nights and arriving home in a snowstorm at 5 a.m. the previous morning – it was predictable that the Cavs wouldn’t have their legs for Monday afternoon’s matchup.
That turned out to be the case, as the Bulls snapped their 10-game skid, topping Cleveland for the third time this season – going wire-to-wire for the, 104-88, decision on MLK Day at The Q.
The Wine & Gold wrapped up their longest West Coast trip of the season with a 1-5 mark, falling to Denver on Saturday night. Monday’s tilt marked a quick turnaround for Larry Drew’s shorthanded squad, playing with a depleted frontline.
