The Cleveland Cavaliers got their second consecutive 60 win season. They now join a list of nine other teams that have done this back to back with a win over the Atlanta Hawks by a score of 93-88 on Friday night. They are now within one game of clinching the NBA’s top record and obtaining home-court advantage for the playoffs.
The Cavaliers, who have already clinched the Eastern conference, did not get their win over Atlanta until late in the game. With Lebron James leading the offense, the Cavaliers outscored the Hawks 14-0 late in the fourth quarter. This is the third time the Cavaliers have beaten Atlanta this season and have a nine-game winning streak against the Hawks overall. The Cavaliers were actually trailing 76-74 when Lebron James scored nine and Mo Williams sunk a three point shot. Williams had 24 points for the Cavs and J.J. Hickson grabbed 16 rebounds, which was a career high. All of this led to the Cavaliers getting win number 60.
