Tipoff Tonight - Game 3 - Nov. 2, 2010 - Atlanta Hawks

“Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; make it hot by striking” - William B. Sprague Cleveland,

The mission has not changed. In fact, the level of energy, motivation and determination by those of us in every part of your Cleveland Cavaliers franchise has never been higher or stronger. We will play to win. Every season. Every game. Every minute. Why? You. The thousands of emails, letters, notes, phone calls and words of support you shared with us this past summer has fueled every one of us with a further heightened sense of will-power and grit to deliver the incredibly loyal and passionate fans of the Cavaliers the ultimate prize. That prize is an NBA championship. No fan base deserves it more. No city deserves it more. Words will never express the gratitude and appreciation for the overwhelming support and confidence you showered upon this franchise over the past few months. There will be nothing we do not explore. There will be no amount of time, capital, brain-power or ingenuity we will not invest if we believe it will contribute to our chances of success. The train has left. It will not stop until it pulls into “Larry O’Brien Station #1”. I am looking forward to enjoying the ride with you. Onward and upward.

home Game 3

Cleveland vs. atlanta Tipoff: 7:00

pm, Tuesday, Nov. 2, 2010

Nov. 1, 2010 Tonight, the Cleveland Cavaliers host the Atlanta Hawks in the first of three regular season meetings. Since 2003-04, the Cavs have won 20 of the 26 games played against the Hawks, including the last six at Quicken Loans Arena. The last time these two teams met at The Q, Mo Williams scored 24 points and J.J. Hickson grabbed a career-best 16 rebounds to lead Cleveland to a 93-88 win on April 2, 2010. The Cavs are 93-103 all-time against Atlanta, including 59-43 at home. So far this season, the Cavs have received a huge contribution from their bench, as the reserves are averaging 41.7 points per game. Daniel Gibson, who tallied 20 points and seven assists on Saturday against Sacramento, has played a prominent role off the bench and is averaging team highs of 15.0 points and 6.0 assists per game. Gibson is one of only three reserve players in the NBA to lead his team in scoring this season (Detroit’s Ben Gordon and Philadelphia’s Lou Williams). After tonight, the Cavaliers will go on a three-game road trip beginning with Philadelphia on Friday. The Hawks are off to a 3-0 start with Joe Johnson leading the team with 23.0 points per game. Atlanta is one of the NBA’s best offensive teams, averaging 107.3 points, while also shooting a league-best .859 from the charity stripe. On the defensive end, Hawks forward Josh Smith is averaging an NBA-high 4.3 blocks per game. The Cavs and Hawks next meeting will be on Dec. 22 at Philips Arena.

Daniel Gibson shoots for two of his 20 points against the Sacramento Kings on Saturday.
