Game 4 Preview
The Cleveland Cavaliers had an opportunity to take a commanding 3-0 lead against the Orlando Magic on Thursday night. Instead, in a lackluster performance, the Cavaliers dropped Game 3 to the Magic 121-83, marking their worst playoff loss in franchise history.
The difference in the game was that the Cavs were outshot from the field and from beyond the arc as well as outrebounded. However, fans can't worry yet, as the Cavaliers proved themselves capable of winning those matchups deep in the paint in Games 1 and 2. The Cavaliers will need to quickly turn things around to get back to their winning ways.
Orlando now faces just a 2-1 series deficit and has a chance to tie the series up before the teams head back to Cleveland for Game 5. If you are Cleveland, Saturday's game is a must-win. Cleveland will need to rebound in order to have a stronger chance of securing a spot in the second round of the playoffs.
