The Cleveland Cavaliers playoff fate was still very much up in the air entering Sunday's game.
At halftime, it feels the team made a conscious decision to punt on trying to win the game to secure the 4-seed in the playoffs, setting up a matchup with either Orlando or Indiana.
Both teams won, so the Magic held on to the 5-seed, setting up a first round matchup against the Cavs.
Cleveland is a -195 favorite to win the series.
The Cleveland Guardians lost the first two games of the series against the New York Yankees this weekend but found a way to claw back and steal the final game in walk-off fashion.
What's bigger for this team -- the walk-off win or the starting pitching woes right now?
It's Mock Draft Monday again as we rapidly approach the NFL Draft. The guys use ESPN's new Mock Draft simulator to figure out the best course of action for Andrew Berry and company with the 54th pick.
Speaking of Berry, assuming he and Kevin Stefanski sign long-term extensions, how big is that continuity for this organization & franchise moving forward?
