A huge dunk from Donovan Mitchell highlighted a great win for the Cavs.
While the final weeks will determine postseason seeding, multiple members of the organization have been privately hoping for a series with the Nets.With a switchy defense and surgical, pass-happy, share-the-wealth offense, Brooklyn had Cleveland out of sorts early. It led for more than eight minutes in the first quarter and was ahead by seven after one -- the Nets’ biggest edge of the game.“I thought in the first quarter, the ball was sticky, it wasn’t moving.
“We need to play a complete game,” Bickerstaff said after the win. “We allowed the lead to dictate our emotions. We allowed a big play to dictate our emotions instead of doing the job and finishing the game the way we need to finish the game.” Mitchell, who fought off a bit of a stomach bug that sent him back to the locker room in the first quarter, poured in a game-high 31 points on 10-of-22 shooting and 5 of 9 from 3-point range. The star guard punctuated his night with thunderous poster dunk over Brooklyn swingman Yuta Watanabe that sent gasps through the Barclays Center.
Garland chipped in with 17 points to go with six assists. Mobley added 17 points, four rebounds and three dimes.
