REACTION: Cleveland Cavaliers CRUSH New York Knicks! | HUGE Statement Win for Cavs!
On this edition of Locked On Cavs, Danny Cunningham reacts to the Cleveland Cavaliers statement victory over the New York Knicks on Tuesday night. He begins the show by praising the defensive effort the team put forth, limiting New York’s high-powered offense and slowing down All-Star point guard Jalen Brunson. He talks about how the offense looked like a work in progress, but still good enough. Next, Danny talks about Jaylon Tyson and the expanded role he had in the game thanks to a key coaching decision from Kenny Atkinson. Finally, Danny talks about James Harden not getting to the free throw line, in a crazy turn of events.

love seeing a controlling win against a playoff team
James has way more games with a whistle like this than people that haven't watched him much might think
Go ahead Cavs.Good win.
Honestly harden also didn't have the same whistle on his first season on the clippers and his role there is more of a playmaker like now but I feel like he needs to be just steadily aggressive for that calls to be back but it only depends how he consistently attacks
Lakers got punked by mediocre Magic,
and the Knicks got clobbered by Cleveland.
… not a good night for the big city NBA squads
Mannn get Dean Wade out of the starting lineup!!! Dude is unplayable during the playoffs.
サンダーにちょっと負けたくらいでキャブス界隈で騒動してたけどそらたまには負けるわ
今のキャブスは強ぇから
Statement win
Do we have enough to get past Detroit and Boston???
Crushing the Knicks is Dolan appoved.
Knicks fan here, i was back and forth between the game and other shit but what defense did Cleveland run? It looked like a match up zone or something at times?
The refs have stoppped giving harden calls years ago since Philly. It is what it is
