There’s a decent chance the Cavaliers come out of the locker room in a foul mood after taking one on the chin on Wednesday night in Denver – traveling to face a hot Blazers team coming off a big win over the Sixers last night.
Coach J.B. Bickerstaff didn’t mince words following Wednesday’s drubbing in Denver, calling out his squad after a poor follow-up to the trip opener in Phoenix. Against a Nuggets team that came into the contest in a foul mood of their own, the Cavs fell behind by double-figures midway through the first quarter and were never a factor from there.
