Cleveland Cavaliers
The Cleveland Cavaliers are a team in the National Basketball Association in Cleveland, Ohio. They began playing in 1970. They play their home games at the Quicken Loans Arena.
History
For years, the team had little success, although with players such as Brad Daugherty and Mark Price, they had some success in the late 1980s and early 1990s. They reached the Eastern Conference Finals in 1992, where they lost to Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls.
In 2003, the Cavaliers won the NBA Draft lottery, and chose LeBron James with the first pick.[1] James became a star, and the Cavaliers reached the NBA Finals for the first time in 2007. However, they lost to the San Antonio Spurs, 4 games to 0. As of 2011, this is the only time the Cavaliers have made it to the NBA Finals.
James's contract ran out in 2010, and James decided not to sign another contract with the Cavaliers. Instead, he would play for the Miami Heat. The Cavaliers were immediately a worse team. At one point during the 2010-2011 season, they lost 26 games in a row. This set a new NBA record for the most games lost in a row.[2]
