The Shot is the name given to a game-winning basket made by Michael Jordan of the Chicago Bulls in the fifth and final game of the first round of the 1989 NBA Playoffs against the Cleveland Cavaliers, on May 7, 1989, on Cleveland's home floor in Richfield, Ohio. The buzzer-beater gave Chicago the best-of-five series, 3–2. It was both a game and series winner. The Shot is considered one of Jordan's greatest clutch moments, and the game itself a classic.

It was the first among many game-winning shots Jordan would make in his playoff career. In Game 4 during the second round of the 1993 Playoffs Jordan would make another series winning buzzer beater on the same end of the court, in the same building giving the Bulls their 4th playoff series win over the Cavaliers, that time a four game sweep.

The Bulls were winless in six games against the Cavaliers in the regular season, including a 6-point loss in the final regular-season game in which the Cavaliers rested their four best players (Ron Harper, Mark Price, Brad Daugherty, and Larry Nance). The Bulls' playoff victory was considered an upset. In retrospect, it symbolized the beginning of a dynasty in Jordan's Bulls.

CLEVELAND — Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert doesn’t regret his harsh criticism of LeBron James upon the free agent’s departure from Cleveland, referring to him as “the player’’ during his session with the media last night at Quicken Loans Arena.

Nearly four months after he ripped James for announcing he was leaving the Cavaliers for the Heat during a one-hour television special, Gilbert said he’s ready to move forward.

CLEVELAND — Shaquille O’Neal warned this month that NBA officials are going to become so powerful because of the crackdown on player reaction to calls that their jerseys should be available at Foot Locker.

After getting issued a technical foul during the fourth quarter of last night’s 95-87 loss to the Cavaliers, O’Neal may search for a particular jersey.

CLEVELAND — The Celtics committed three fouls in the first 2 minutes 21 seconds of the third quarter and 3:46 later, Rajon Rondo committed the fourth foul to put Cleveland in the bonus for the rest of the period.

The Cleveland Cavaliers executed a monster trade Thursday to unite the superstars, acquiring Shaquille O'Neal from the Phoenix Suns in hopes he can help LeBron James deliver this seemingly sports-cursed city its first major pro championship in 45 years.

The Cavs sent center Ben Wallace and swingman Sasha Pavlovic to the Suns, along with a second-round pick in the 2010 draft and $500,000 in cash, for O'Neal, the 7-foot-1 center who won three straight titles from 2000 to 2002 with Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers. His fourth title came with Dwyane Wade in Miami in 2006.

For now, the Cavaliers, who came up short this year despite winning 66 regular-season games and their first eight playoff games, are only thinking of unseating the Lakers as champions next June.

Spurs in a blur

By Mike Bresnahan
June 15, 2007

Another heartbreak by the lake, not that the San Antonio Spurs minded at all.

As one city groaned, seemingly resigned to its fate as a habitual non-champion in the sports world, another city popped into celebration mode, again, 1,500 miles away.

The Spurs won their fourth NBA championship in nine seasons, untangling themselves from the Cleveland Cavaliers long enough for an 83-82 victory Thursday in Game 4 of the Finals at Quicken Loans Arena.

James may have been one of the most hyped players ever coming directly out of high school. It may have been karma that he was picked by his hometown team, the Cleveland Cavaliers. He would not disappoint. In four seasons, he has turned the Cavaliers around from being a steady lottery team to being a high-seeded playoff team. He won Rookie of the Year honors in 2004, despite barely missing the playoffs, with a 20.9 points per game average, to go along with 5.5 rebounds per game and 5.9 assists per game. He followed that impressive performance in 2005 with 27.2 points per game, 7.4 rebounds per game and 7.2 assists per game. In 2006, he broke the 30-point barrier (31.4 points per game). At just 22 years old, James is one of the league's brightest young superstars.

10.) fans liked the browns more than the rams ever since they were created

At the time, Cleveland was home to the 1945 NFL champion Cleveland Rams, led by the NFL's hottest star, MVP quarterback Bob Waterfield, who was married to star actress Jane Russell. However, fans supported the Browns over the Rams from the moment they were created, and the Rams ended up fleeing to Los Angeles before the Browns had ever played a game.

The franchise conducted a team naming contest in 1945. The most popular submission was "Browns" in recognition of Paul Brown, already an established and popular figure in Ohio sports. Brown at first objected to the name and the team selected from the contest entries the name "Panthers." However, after an area businessman informed the team that he owned the rights to the name Cleveland Panthers from an earlier failed football team, Brown rescinded his objection and agreed to the use of his name.

As a franchise, the Browns were immediately successful. Dominating the new All-America Football Conference, the Browns won all four league championships, including the 1948 season in which they became the first pro football team to finish the season and playoffs unbeaten and untied - 24 years before the NFL's first perfect team, the 1972 Miami Dolphins. Cleveland's undefeated streak (including ties) reached 29 games, including 18 straight wins. In an effort to increase league parity, the Browns were forced to relinquish the rights to some of their younger players, such as quarterback Y.A. Tittle, who went to the Baltimore Colts in 1948.
