What a game! Grant Williams for the Celtics misses 2 straight free throws with .8 seconds left and a tie game. Mitchell with 40 and Lamar Stevens comes up big with 6 offensive boards.

I was very impressed with Lamar Stevens tonight. As Buckeyefan mentioned, he was crucial on the boards. He also made two clutch baskets in overtime as well.

Boston was without 3 starters but a win is a win, I'll take any win at this point in the season with the Knicks breathing down the Cavs neck for the 4th seed. Home court advantage is huge for this team as their home record is way better than their away record by a wide margin. With 15 games to go the Cavs need to finish 9-6 to reach 50 wins.

Yeah I'm not very comforted by the fact that Boston was without 3 starters, played a double OT game the night before, and we were at home and still needed OT just to beat them. Definitely need to be better if they want to do anything in the playoffs. But a win is a win.

Knicks lost to the Hornets tonight at home so the Cavs bump up to 2 games ahead.

Huge win for the Cavs tonight. Garland made huge plays all game whether it was scoring or passing. Also, Mitchell became the single season record holder for 3 pointers made and still has 14 games left.

That was a playoff like game and atmosphere in a tough place to win. Cavs would get blown out in South Beach even back when Lebron was here. Glad to see them grind it out and close it out. This team grew up a bit tonight.

This team grew up a bit tonight. Allen and Mobley were huge tonight. Stevens continues to give solid minutes off the bench. Outside of Miamis main 3 scorers, the rest of the team who played only contributed 33 points.

Stevens was a starter at the beginning of the year. I would put him back in over okoro. He may not score, but he fights for the ball and plays great defense.

I’d love to see both Okoro and Stevens come off the bench next season and bring in a free agent to start. I think 6th man would be a perfect role for Okoro.

Mobley has room to grow offensively but man he is generational on defense. He covers so much ground with those long arms and can switch on to guards and be glued to their hip. He is a menace on defense its a joy to watch.

I will be curious to watch the spread on tonight's game vs. the Friday game. On Wednesday the Cavs were -2 point favorites. The line for tomorrow opens up as -1.5 Cavs so not much of a difference from Vegas.

There isn’t many good free agents available at the 3 spot, but they can maybe find a good trade.

Atlanta with Buckhead and Miami with South Beach give those 2 franchises the greatest home court advantages in the NBA when the opposing teams spend a night or two before playing.

I can only hope they weren't living the Miami life last night. A win tonight would be nice since the Knicks lost again last night and are 3 games back of the Cavs for the 4 seed. If you grab a W you would be 3.5 up on the Knicks with a very very favorable remaining schedule. Securing home-court is very important for this team.

Cavs sweep the “baseball” series against the Hornets to sit at 44-27. They have 11 games left and have to go at least 6-5 the rest of the way to reach 50 wins.

If we can somehow beat the 76ers tonight I think we have a shot at catching them for 3rd. Their schedule is way harder than the Cavs. They have to play the Celtics, Bucks, Suns, Mavs, Warriors and Nuggets. The Cavs best opponent is probably the Knicks. I'm saying there's a chance.
