BUSINESS STAFF LEN KOMOROSKI
President, Cavaliers/Quicken Loans Arena Governor, Lake Erie Monsters
Len Komoroski was named president of the Cavaliers/Quicken Loans Arena organization in April, 2003. A seasoned business executive, Komoroski brings more than 25 years of experience in professional sports and entertainment to the organization. His leadership and business initiative bring a solid foundation from which the Cavaliers, Monsters and The Q can continue to thrive and flourish. For the 2003-04 season, Komoroski oversaw the restructuring of how the Cavaliers approached the business community, including the development of a staff featuring some of the top sports marketing executives in the industry. The collective efforts both on and off the floor resulted in one of the top business turnaround stories in NBA history. The Cavaliers had the largest year-over-year attendance increase in NBA history, progressing from a league-low of 11,497 per game in 2002-03 to 18,288 in 2003-04 – a 59% increase. Television ratings were up 300% and featured revised broadcast agreements resulting in the largest number of locally-televised games in team history. Radio ratings also increased by more than 200% and local merchandise sales grew by 500%. The Cavaliers also experienced the largest increase in corporate partnership revenue in the NBA last season. He also led the charge in the transformation of the Cavaliers communications efforts and dramatic changes in developing one of the most dynamic game experiences in the NBA. Since then, Komoroski has led continued growth and development across the board as the Cavs are now among the top five revenue teams in the NBA. The 2007-08 regular season attendance average was 20,465, which was the largest in team history. The franchise also set a record with 33 sellouts. Corporate sales revenue is now amongst the top tier of teams in the NBA, including the dynamic season-presenting relationship with Cub Cadet. The Cavaliers are also considered to have one of the best game presentations in the NBA. Komoroski also played a leadership role in developing one of the top cable television relationships in the NBA with FOX Sports Ohio, encompassing 70 regular season games, as well as for the entitlement of the Cavaliers new state-of-the-art player development facility – Cleveland Clinic Courts. In addition, Komoroski played a leadership role in the acquisition of its American Hockey League franchise, the Lake Erie Monsters, which played their inaugural season at The Q in 2007-08. Komoroski was also the lead in bringing the new Arena Football League franchise, the Gladiators, to The Q in March of 2008. While with the Eagles, Komoroski brought many properties in-house, including the Eagles Television Network, which is the largest developer of local programming in the NFL. Under his guidance, the Eagles established the fan-friendly NFL Training Camp, which was the most heavily attended in the league, featuring autograph sessions, interactive games, hospitality and an extraordinary merchandise tent. He also helped broker a record-setting naming rights deal with NovaCare, garnering a reported $66 million for the Eagles training facility, the NovaCare Complex. Komoroski also played a leadership role in the development of Lincoln Financial Field, the Eagles state-of-the-art stadium. Through his efforts, the Eagles secured a 20-year, $140 million naming rights agreement with Lincoln Financial Group, which at the time was one of the largest such agreements in pro sports history. He and his business group orchestrated the successful sellout of 172 suites, 8,000 club seats, 29,000 Stadium Builder Licenses and a waiting list of over 40,000 for season tickets. Through the efforts of Komoroski and his team, the Eagles were among the most successful NFL teams in securing long-term seven-figure per annum “Founding Partner” relationships for new stadia; in addition, they forged many other substantial six-figure per annum agreements. He also completed top-tier industry agreements for Eagles radio and television coverage and concession agreements for Lincoln Financial Field. Behind Komoroski’s leadership, the organization secured major soccer events, concerts, Division I college football games and the Army/Navy Game, establishing Lincoln Financial Field as one of the most active stadiums in sports. Through these efforts and events the Eagles have become one of the highest grossing franchises in professional sports. This is Komoroski’s second stint in the NBA, having been with the Minnesota Timberwolves from 1988-94 and having played a major role in the start-up of the team and its arena, the Target Center. While Komoroski was Vice President of Sales and the senior sales and marketing official for the team and arena, the Timberwolves became one of the most financially successful organizations in the league. After Minnesota, he came to Cleveland as senior vice president and chief operating officer of the International Hockey League’s (IHL) Cleveland Lumberjacks, and immediately transformed the Lumberjacks into a flourishing enterprise. Both attendance and revenues saw sharp increases during Komoroski’s time, and the Lumberjacks were one of three profitable IHL teams in 1996. Komoroski got his start in sports in 1982 with the Pittsburgh Spirit of the Major Indoor Soccer League, followed by management roles with the Pittsburgh Penguins of the National Hockey League and the Minnesota Strikers of the MISL, and as a regional manager for the Miller Brewing Company’s sports marketing arm. Komoroski’s achievements in professional sports have attracted considerable attention, and he has assumed leadership positions in several capacities. He is on the board of directors of the Cleveland chapters of City Year, the American Red Cross, American Cancer Society Golf Tournament and the United Way, as well as the board of Positively Cleveland. He is also a member of the Young Presidents Organization, the 50 Club and the Bluecoats. Komoroski is a 1982 cum laude graduate of Duquesne University. He and his wife Denise are the parents of three daughters – Kristin, Kelly, Jamie and one son, Zachary. 10 | CLEVELAND CAVALIERS

Cleveland Cavaliers Head Coach
THE PLAYERS SEASON REVIEW NBA INFORMATION ALL-TIME RECORDS PLAYOFFS HISTORY ALL-TIME ROSTER CAVALIERS HISTORY COMMUNITY RELATIONS
Mike Brown was named the 17th head coach in Cleveland Cavaliers history on June 2, 2005. In his first three seasons at the helm of the Cavaliers, Brown has quickly become one of the NBA’s top young coaches. During the 2007 Playoffs, Brown led the Cavaliers to their first Eastern Conference Championship and a trip to the NBA Finals after Cleveland knocked off the Pistons 42 in the Eastern Conference Finals. He guided the Cavaliers to their first series sweep in the first round versus Washington and then led Cleveland to a 4-2 win in the conference semifinals against New Jersey. In the 2008 Playoffs, the Cavaliers defeated the Washington Wizards 4-2 before taking the eventual NBA Champion Boston Celtics to a seven-game series. Cleveland is one of only three teams (Detroit and San Antonio) to have reached at least the second round of the playoffs in each of the last three seasons. In three playoff appearances, Brown has a record of 26-20 (.565) making him the winningest playoff head coach in team history. Brown has led the Cavaliers to at least 45 wins in each of his first three seasons in Cleveland. It marks just the second time in team history (1991-92 to 1993-94) that Cleveland reached that mark in three straight seasons. The only other teams with 45 or more wins in each of the last three seasons are Dallas, Detroit, Phoenix and San Antonio. After posting the most wins as a first-year head coach in team history in 2005-06 (50-32 record), Brown followed that up with another 50-win season (50-32) in his second year. Cleveland posted 45 wins during the 200708 season and made their third consecutive appearance in the NBA playoffs. With a combined regular season record of 145-101 (.589) in three seasons, Brown has the highest winning percentage of any head coach in Cavs history. During his first season as head coach, he became the winningest first-year head coach in team history and led Cleveland to Eastern Conference Semifinals in the 2006 Playoffs. He became the first coach in franchise history to lead his team to a playoff series win in his first season by defeating Washington 4-2 in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs in 2006. In addition, he became the first rookie head coach since Rick Carlisle in 200102 to post 50 wins in a season. Brown joined the Cavaliers after spending two seasons as the associate head coach of the Indiana Pacers and three seasons as an assistant coach for the San Antonio Spurs. His career record as an assistant coach was 341201 (.629) and he won a division title with Indiana in 2003-04 and three straight division titles with San Antonio. He helped lead Indiana to consecutive playoff appearances including a trip to the Eastern Conference Finals in 2004.

OSCAR WORTHY: LeBron James finished the 2008 playoffs with averages of 28.2 points, 7.8 rebounds and 7.6 assists per game. He joined Oscar Robertson as the only player in NBA playoff history to average at least those numbers. Robertson did it three times in his career (1962, 1963 and 1964). FINDING PLAYOFF SUCCESS: Over the past three postseasons, Cleveland has tallied a record of 26-20 (.565). Only San Antonio and Detroit have more playoffs wins during that stretch than Cleveland. WHAT BROWN HAS DONE FOR US: Over the playoffs in the last three seasons, Mike Brown has led Cleveland to a 26-20 (.565) record. He is the winningest playoff head coach in team history. Among active coaches he ranks 10th in playoff victories (26) and fifth in winning percentage (.565) trailing only Phil Jackson, Gregg Popovich, Byron Scott and Stan Van Gundy. Z LEADER: During the 2008 postseason, Zydrunas Ilgauskas set the team record for games played in the playoffs. In four playoff seasons in Cleveland, Ilgauskas has now played in 50 games. He averaged 13.1 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per game in 13 playoff games this season. GAME 7 SHOW: Cavaliers forward LeBron James put on a historic performance in Game 7 at Boston on May 18. James finished with 45 points on 14-29 shooting including 14-19 from the free throw line to go along with six assists and five rebounds. He tallied 23 points in the first half and 22 in the second half including 13 in the fourth quarter. Here’s a look at some highlights from his Game 7 performance: • His 45 points were the fourth-most ever scored in a NBA Playoff Game 7. • James fell four points shy of besting his own team playoff record for points scored (48 points in Game 5 at Detroit in the Conference Finals) but tied his own team record for points scored in a regulation game (May 3, 2006 versus Washington). • James (45 points) and Paul Pierce (41) became only the second pair of opposing players to each score at least 40 points in the seventh game of an NBA playoff series. Sam Jones (47) and Oscar Robertson (43) did it in Boston’s 142-131 win over the Cincinnati Royals in the Eastern Division Finals in 1963 (Courtesy Elias). • James tied his own playoff team record for free throw attempts with 19. LOCKDOWN ‘D’: Cleveland’s defense was a key to the Cavaliers playoff success this season. During the series against Boston, the Cavaliers were on top of their game. In those games, the Cavaliers held the Celtics to an average of 84.0 points on .425 shooting including .287 (29-101) from three-point range. They held Boston under 90 points in five of the seven games. During the regular season, Boston averaged 100.5 points per game on .475 shooting including .381 from three-point range. Here’s a game-by-game breakdown of the Cavaliers defense in the series: GAME 7 – Boston shot .478 from the field to clinch the series GAME 6 – Cleveland held Boston to an all-time playoff opponent-low 69 points on .397 shooting…it was the second-fewest points in Celtics playoff history GAME 5 – Boston finished with 96 points on .481 shooting…Cavs held the Celtics to 18 points on 8-23 shooting (.348) in the first quarter GAME 4 – Cleveland held Boston to a postseason low .386 (27-70) shooting and 77 points…Celtics scored just 12 points in the fourth quarter GAME 3 – Boston was held to .405 shooting (30-74) and 84 points in Cleveland’s 108-84 win…Cleveland held the Celtics to 7-21 (.333) shooting in the fourth quarter GAME 2 – Boston posted 89 points on .403 shooting…Boston went 4-16 (.250) from the field in the fourth quarter GAME 1 – The Celtics tallied just 76 points including 35 in the second half when they shot 13-35 (.371) from the field SECOND STRAIGHT WINNING RECORD IN PLAYOFFS: After posting a 19-14 record in the playoffs from 2006–2007, Cleveland finished the 2008 postseason with a 7-6 record. It marks the first time in team history that the Cavaliers finished with winning records in the playoffs in three consecutive seasons. Cleveland’s 26-20 record mark over the past three seasons marks the third most wins in the playoffs in the NBA behind only San Antonio and Detroit. BIG GAME JAMES: Over the final three games of the first round series against Washington, LeBron James put up some historic playoff numbers. In those three games, he averaged 31.7 points, 11.7 rebounds and 9.0 assists per game. He posted his third career playoff triple-double with 27 points, 13 rebounds and 13 assists in Game 6. In Games 4 and 5, James put up consecutive games with at least 34 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists in each game. He became just the fourth player in NBA playoff history and the first since Larry Bird (May 11-13, 1984) to post at least those numbers in back-to-back playoff games. Oscar Robertson (April 6-7, 1963) and Dolph Schayes (March 29-April 1, 1959) are the only other players to record those numbers.

Cleveland has outrebounded Washington 465-370 in those 10 games. Here’s a look at Cleveland’s dominance on the glass against the Wizards: 2007 2008 GAME 1 – CAVS 46, Wizards 40 GAME 1 – CAVS 43, Wizards 42 GAME 2 – CAVS 56, Wizards 38 GAME 2 – CAVS 49, Wizards 34 GAME 3 – CAVS 48, Wizards 33 GAME 3 – CAVS 41, Wizards 36 GAME 4 – CAVS 46, Wizards 35 GAME 4 – CAVS 51, Wizards 31 GAME 5 – CAVS 40, Wizards 39 GAME 6 – CAVS 45, Wizards 42 A GRAND OL’ TIME: LeBron James scored 34 points on April 27 in Game 4 against Washington to become the 170th player in NBA history to record 1,000 career points in the postseason. James (23 years, 119 days) was the third-youngest player to reach that milestone, trailing Kobe Bryant (22 years, 263 days in 2001) and Tony Parker (23 years, 23 days in 2005). (Courtesy Elias Sports Bureau). PLAYOFF STREAKING: The Cavaliers have dominated the Wizards in the postseason over the last three years. Dating back to Game 5 of the First Round LONGEST PLAYOFF WIN STREAKS AGAINST ONE OPPONENT playoff series in 2006, the Cavaliers have rattled off 10 wins in 12 games including 12 – Lakers over Seattle; 4-23-80 to 5-14-89 eight straight games against Washington from May 3, 2006 – April 21, 2008. 10 – Lakers over Denver; 5-17-85 to present Here’s a look at where that streak ranks in the record books as well as the 10 – Boston over Chicago; 4-5-81 to 4-28-87 Cavaliers and Wizards numbers in those games: 10 – Philadelphia over New York; 3-31-68 to 5-1-83 WIZARDS CAVS 9 – Chicago over Cleveland; 5-27-92 to 5-3-94 WINS: 10 2 9 – Chicago over Miami; 4-24-92 to 5-24-97 PPG: 100.8 96.0 8 – Cavaliers over Washington; 5-3-06 to 4-21-08 RPG: 46.3 37.4 8 – Lakers over Phoenix; 5-25-84 to 5-28-89 APG: 21.3 18.3 FG%: .458 .433 THREE-POINT BARRAGE: In Game 4 at Washington, Cleveland used the long ball to knock off the Wizards and take a 3-1 series lead. In the 100-97 win, Cleveland set a team record for three-pointers made (12), three-pointers attempted (28) and three-pointers made in a half (8 in the second half). Delonte West (5), Daniel Gibson (4), LeBron James (3) and Devin Brown (1) all connected on three-pointers as Cleveland shot .464 from three-point range in the win. BIGTIME BLOWOUT: In Game 2 against Washington, the Cavaliers played one of their most complete playoff games in years. Cleveland set a franchise record for its biggest playoff win, a 30-point (116-86) win to take a 2-0 series lead. The victory surpassed the previous record which was a 27-point win against Philadelphia on May 1, 1990. Here are some other quick facts from Cleveland’s big Game 2 win: • The Cavaliers 116 points marked the most points Cleveland has scored in a regulation playoff game since May 17, 1992, when they scored 122 against Boston. • Cleveland’s seven second half three-pointers set a franchise record for three’s in a half for a playoff game. • The Cavs .526 three-point percentage (10-19) marked the Cavs highest percentage in a playoff game since they shot .545 on April 27, 1995 at New York (6-11). • Cleveland recorded 27 assists, which was the most assists in a playoff game since May 17, 1993, when they had 27. • In Game 2, LeBron James posted 30 points, 12 assists, nine rebounds, two blocks and one steal. He is the first player in NBA history (dating back to 1973 when steals and blocks became an official stat) to post at least those numbers in a playoff game. • In 15 minutes played in Game 2, Devin Brown posted seven points, five rebounds, a postseason-best four assists and two steals. He is the first player in NBA history to post at least those numbers in 15 minutes or fewer in a playoff game. • In the first two games of the series, LeBron James totaled 62 points, 16 assists and 15 rebounds. Only two players since 1991 had that many points, rebounds and assists in the first two games of a playoff series: Michael Jordan against Utah in the 1997 NBA Finals and Paul Pierce against New Jersey in 2003 (Courtesy Elias). PLAYOFF TIME: The Cavaliers made their third straight appearance in the playoffs in 2008. After advancing to the Eastern Conference Semifinals in 2006, the Cavaliers captured their first Eastern Conference Championship in 2007 and made their first NBA Finals appearance. The Cavaliers have now made the playoffs in at least three consecutive seasons four times in team history (1976-1978 and 1988-90 and five straight seasons from 1992-96). AMONG THE BEST: The Cavaliers have been one of the premiere teams in the NBA over the past three seasons. Dating back to the 2005-06 season, Cleveland has a record of 145-101 (.589) which is the sixth-best record in the NBA during that time. Only Dallas, Detroit, Phoenix, San Antonio and Utah have posted better records than Cleveland. In addition, the Cavaliers are one of just eight teams in the NBA that have qualifed for the playoffs in each of the last three seasons. The other teams are Eastern Conference foes Detroit and Washington while Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles Lakers, Phoenix and San Antonio have appeared in the Western Conference playoffs. WINNING WAYS: With their 45 wins this season, the Cavaliers have now won 45 or more games in each of their last three seasons. It marks just the second time in team history (1991-92 to 1993-94) that Cleveland reached that mark in three straight seasons. The only other teams with 45 or more wins in each of the last three seasons are Dallas, Detroit, Phoenix and San Antonio. LEADING THE WAY: Cavaliers superstar LeBron James’ fifth season in Cleveland was a historic one. James was spectacular throughout the season and continued to place himself among the game’s greats. Here’s a look at many of James’ accomplishments this season: • Led the NBA in scoring as he averaged 30.0 points, 7.9 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1.8 steals per game • Became the third player in NBA history to average at least 30.0 points, 7.9 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game (Oscar Robertson and Michael Jordan) • Became the first Cavalier to ever lead the NBA in scoring • Set the franchise’s points scored record with his fifth point versus Toronto on March 21, surpassing Brad Daugherty (10,389 points) • Became just the second player in NBA history to post four consecutive seasons of at least 27 points, 6.0 rebounds and 6.0 assists (Oscar Robertson) • One of just two players to average at least 27.0 points per game in each of the past four seasons (Kobe Bryant) • One of just three players in the past 20 seasons to lead the league in scoring and average seven or more assists (Jordan, 1988-89 and Iverson, 04-05) • Posted 50 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds at New York on March 5 (first since Kareem Abdul-Jabbar on Jan. 19, 1975 to have at least 50 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds in a game) and became just the third player since 1992 (Michael Jordan and Stephon Marbury) with at least 50 points and 10 assists in a game • Became the first player in NBA history to ever post at least 31 points, a career-high 19 rebounds, eight assists, four steals and three blocks in a game when he reached those numbers versus Charlotte on Jan. 11 • Averaged 28.8 points on .506 shooting, 12.3 rebounds and 10.5 assists over four games from Feb. 19-24, becoming the first player since Wilt Chamberlain (March 16-20, 1968) to average at least those numbers during a four-game span

He finished with 27 points on 12-22 shooting, eight rebounds and nine assists. In his last three All-Star appearances, he has averaged 28.0 points, 6.7 rebounds and 5.7 assists per game. DANIEL GIBSON: Named the MVP of the T-Mobile Rookie Challenge after scoring a game-high 33 points as he connected on an all-time game record 11 three-pointers. The next day in the Foot Locker Three-Point Shootout, Gibson finished in second place behind two-time defending champion Jason Kapono. Gibson tallied 17 points in the first round to advance to the finals where he posted a score of 17 points again. ROAD TRIP: Cleveland wrapped up its road schedule for the season at Philadelphia on April 14 with a 91-90 win. The win gave Cleveland its 18th road win of the season giving them at least 18 road wins in each of the last three seasons (20 road wins in 2006-07 and 19 in 2005-06). It marks the first time in team history that Cleveland won at least 18 road games in three consecutive seasons. START IT UP: During the 2007-08 season, the Cavaliers tied a franchise record as 23 different players appeared in at least one game for Cleveland. The 1981-82 Cavaliers also had 23 different players play for Cleveland. In addition, this season the Cavaliers featured 21 differrent starting lineups as 17 different players started at least one game for Cleveland. AWARD WINNERS: During the 2007-08 season, LeBron James earned numerous NBA honors while Head Coach Mike Brown received recognition from the NBA for the first time in his career. James was named the NBA’s Eastern Conference Player of the Month in both January and February. In 14 games during the month of February, James averaged 30.2 points, 8.9 rebounds and 8.5 assists. In January, James led the Cavs to an 11-3 record by averaging 32.8 points, 9.2 rebounds and 6.4 assists per game. James has won the award seven times in his career. James also won the Eastern Conference Player of the Week Award three times this season which gives him 13 in his career. Brown was named the NBA’s Eastern Conference Coach of the Month for the month of January. It marked the first time in his career that Brown received the award as he became just the fourth coach in team history to win the award. Brown led the Cavs to an 11-3 mark in January which gave them the best record among Eastern Conference teams as they tied their franchise record with six road wins (6-2) during the month.

NBA INFORMATION
Going into their second season as a franchise, the Cleveland Cavaliers held the No. 1 overall pick in the 1971 NBA Draft and aimed to get an impact player. With their pick, the Cavaliers selected Austin Carr, a high-scoring shooting guard and two-time All-American at Notre Dame. Carr proved not only to be the impact player the Cavaliers sought, but much more. As a rookie, Carr immediately became the top option on offense, averaging 21.2 points and becoming the first Cavalier named to the All-NBA Rookie Team. Known as “A.C.” by teammates and fans alike, the sweet-shooting fan favorite averaged 20 or more points the following two seasons, highlighted by Carr’s selection as an all-star in 1974. Just as Carr began to reach elite status in the NBA, misfortune struck. On Dec. 5, 1974, Carr suffered a knee injury that eventually cut short his season and forced him to undergo surgery. Carr persevered and returned strong, playing in all 82 games in three of the following four seasons. Even after the injury, Carr’s impact as a scorer and leader remained present as he never averaged less than double-digits in Austin Carr (No. 34) his career and led the Cavaliers to the playoffs on three occasions during his nine-year tenure in Cleveland. Height: 6-4 Weight: 200 After the 1979-80 season, Carr’s final with the Cavaliers, he won the Walter Kennedy Citizenship Award for Position: Shooting Guard his substantial contributions to the Cleveland community. Jersey Retired on Jan. 3, 1981 Carr remains the franchise leader in field goals made and attempted and ranks third in points scored. He also ranks among the franchise leaders in free throws made (6th) and attempted (5th) and minutes played (4th). For his efforts on and off the floor, Carr was selected by 32 members of the media in Northeast Ohio to the Cavaliers’ All-Time Starting Five during the Cavaliers 30th Anniversary season of 1999-2000. He remains deeply involved in the organization serving as Director of Community and Business Development as well as the full-time analyst for the Cavaliers Television Network. The Cavaliers retired his jersey on Jan. 3, 1981.
SEASON REVIEW
On May 11, 1970, the Cleveland Cavaliers drafted 11 players in the 1970 Expansion Draft. Two never put on a Cavaliers uniform. Of the remaining nine, all but one played four seasons or less in Cleveland. The one, Bobby Smith, played 10 seasons and over 700 games with the Cavaliers, helping to shape and mold the young expansion team into playoff contenders. Better known as “Bingo”, Smith spent his rookie season with the San Diego Rockets before being selected by the Cavaliers in the Expansion Draft. Smith and his patented ‘rainbow jumper’ became bright spots through Cleveland’s early years as the team quickly improved. With each passing season, the versatile small forward remained a constant and consistent performer even leading the 1974-75 Cavaliers that finished 40-42 and one game out of the playoffs in scoring at 15.9 points per game. The following season Cleveland made the playoffs for the first time and Smith added a bit of magic to the season that has become known as the “Miracle of Richfield”. With home court advantage already lost and the Cavaliers trailing in their first round series against the favored Washington Bullets, 0-1, Smith and his rainbow Bobby “Bingo” Smith (No. 7) jumpers helped Cleveland find a pot of gold. In Washington for Game 2, Smith scored a team-leading 17 points Height: 6-6 Weight: 195 and made the game-winning shot with just seconds remaining to secure the 80-79 victory. The win served as the Position: Small Forward first playoff victory for the franchise and propelled the Cavaliers past the Bullets and into the Eastern Conference Jersey Retired on Dec. 4, 1979 Finals against Boston where they eventually fell in six games. Smith played four more seasons in Cleveland, helping guide the Cavaliers to the playoffs two more times before finishing his career with the San Diego Clippers for one season. “Bingo” ranks in the top 10 all-time in franchise history in six different categories [Games played (2nd), field goals made (2nd), field goals attempted (2nd), minutes played (3rd) and points scored (5th). The Cavaliers retired his jersey on Dec. 4, 1979.

Long before Nate Thurmond had arrived to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Nov. 27, 1975 and led the five-year old franchise to its first playoff appearance had Thurmond held a warm spot in the hearts of Northeast Ohioans. Born Nathaniel Thurmond on July 25, 1941 in Akron, Ohio, the 6-foot-11 center starred at Akron’s Central Hower High School before taking his talents to Bowling Green State University. As a Falcon, Thurmond averaged 17.8 points and 17.0 rebounds over three varsity seasons, earning All-America honors as a senior in 1963. Drafted by the San Francisco Warriors with the third overall pick in the 1963 NBA Draft, Thurmond learned behind Wilt Chamberlain for a full season before the Warriors traded Chamberlain midway through the following season clearing room for Thurmond to flourish. A dominant defensive player whom Chamberlain and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar both credited as their toughest defender, Thurmond was named to the NBA All-Defensive First or Second-Team on five occasions (1969, ‘71-74) and was honored as an NBA All-Star seven times (1965-65, ’70, ’73-74). Thurmond is also acknowledged in NBA history as the first player to ever record a quadruple-double. Thurmond was traded to the Chicago Bulls after 11 seasons as a Warrior and two trips to the NBA Finals (1964 Nate Thurmond (No. 42) and 1967). Thurmond spent two seasons in Chicago before the Cavaliers acquired the center for Steve Patterson Height: 6-11 Weight: 235 and Eric Fernsten. Position: Center Home in Ohio again Thurmond led the 1975-76 Cavaliers team that started 6-11 without him to a 43-22 finish Jersey Retired on Dec. 18, 1977 and the playoffs, helping give birth to the season better known as “the Miracle of Richfield”. The following season would be Thurmond’s last as he retired at the end of the season. He was inducted in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1984 and named to the NBA 50th Anniversary All-Time Team in 1996. The Cavaliers retired his jersey on Dec. 18, 1977.

Cavaliers All-Time Retired Jerseys (Continued) Undoubtedly, the 1986 NBA Draft that brought the Cavaliers Brad Daugherty, Ron Harper and Mark Price brought a youthful injection of much-needed talent and skilled players to an evolving franchise. The acquisition of the three college stars instantly made the Cavaliers good. But perhaps it was the final acquisition of power forward Larry Nance that made the Cavaliers go from good to great and led to the most successful era in team history. On Feb. 25, 1988, Cleveland sent Kevin Johnson, Mark West, Tyrone Corbin, a first-round draft choice in 1988 and two second-round picks to Phoenix in exchange for Nance, Mike Sanders and Detroit’s first-round pick in 1988. Known as “Leapin’ Larry” for the dunking prowess that made him the first-ever Slam Dunk Champion in 1984 and his strong shot-blocking skills, Nance brought his high-flying, power game and six years of experience to a team in desperate need of a veteran. Nance filled the void remarkably, helping the Cavaliers make the playoffs by winning 11 of their final 13 games that season. Larry Nance (No. 22) The following season in many respects served as the best in franchise history as the Cavaliers won a franHeight: 6-10 Weight: 235 chise-best 57 games (which was later tied by the 1991-92 team that Nance also starred on) and went 37-4 at Position: Power Forward home. Nance was named an NBA All-Star for the first of two times in 1989 and was joined on the squad by Jersey Retired on Jan. 30, 1995 Daugherty, Price and head coach Lenny Wilkens. Spearheaded by the trio of Nance, Daugherty and Price, the Cavaliers made the playoffs in each season the group played together besides 1990-91, where Price was limited to just 16 games after tearing his ACL. A tenacious defender, Nance is the only player in franchise history to be named to the All-Defensive First Team (1988-89) and the only Cavalier to make the team three times (1988-89, 91-92 and 92-93). He ranks among the Cavaliers All-Time leaders in blocked shots (3rd), field goal percentage (3rd), rebounds (5th), field goals made and attempted (8th), minutes played (9th) and free throws made (9th) and attempted (10th). Nance was named to the Cavaliers’ All-Time Starting Five by 32 members of the Northeast Ohio media during the Cavaliers 30th Anniversary season. The Cavaliers retired his jersey on Jan. 30, 1995. 5,227 rebounds grabbed. 2,741 free throws made. 3,670 free throws attempted. Five all-star appearances made. Those numbers represent the various statistics that Brad Daugherty leads the Cavaliers in all-time and why he is one of the greatest players in franchise history. The number one overall draft pick of the 1986 NBA Draft, the 7-foot center was pivotal along with then-fellow rookies Ron Harper, John Williams and Mark Price in re-energizing and improving the franchise. The multi-skilled Daugherty was named to the All-Rookie Team and quickly joined elite status as an NBA center while leading the Cavaliers to the same as a team. Daugherty played in the first of five all-star games in 1988 and then led the Cavaliers to the playoffs for the first time in three seasons that April. The following season Daugherty and the Cavaliers won a franchise-record 57 games, including going 37-4 at home. After an injury-plagued 1989-90 season in which Daugherty missed the first 41 games, Daugherty returned Brad Daugherty (No. 43) to all-star status. He became the first and remains the only player in franchise history to average 20 or more points Height: 7-0 Weight: 263 and 10 or more rebounds in the same season. He reached that feat in three consecutive seasons (1990-93), being Position: Center named an all-star in the process each of those years. Jersey Retired on March. 1, 1997 In the 1992 NBA Playoffs, Daugherty cemented his place as one of the best in the league by leading the Cavaliers to the conference finals. He averaged 21.5 points on .528 field goal shooting, 10.2 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.0 block in 40.4 minutes per game during the 17-game run. In the first round against New Jersey, he scored a Cavalier playoff record 40 points on April 23. Cleveland made the playoffs in all of the seasons Daugherty played but two and he led the Cavaliers in scoring in all but three of his seasons. Just entering the prime of his career at 28, Daugherty suffered an ill-fated career-ending herniated lumbar disc in mid-February of the 1993-94 season. Despite having his outstanding career cut short, the North Carolina native had already broken the afore-mentioned Cavalier records. He remains in the top 10 all-time in points (2nd), field goal percentage (2nd), minutes played (2nd), field goals made (4th) and field goals attempted (5th), scoring average (5th), assists (6th), blocked shots (6th) and steals (9th). As part of the Cavaliers 30th Anniversary in 1999-2000, Daugherty was unanimously named by 32 members of the Northeast Ohio media to the Cavaliers’ All-Time Starting Five. He was the only player to garner all 32 votes. The Cavaliers retired his jersey on March 1, 1997. They say lightning doesn’t strike twice in the same place, but for the Cavaliers on draft day in 1986, it did. Prior to the draft on June 17, Cleveland acquired the top overall pick from Philadelphia in exchange for Roy Hinson and considerations. With the first pick in the 1986 NBA Draft, Cleveland selected center Brad Daugherty. At the top of the second round, the Dallas Mavericks selected Mark Price with the 25th overall pick. Quickly, the Cavaliers traded their second-round draft pick in 1989 and other considerations with Dallas in exchange for the rights to the 6-foot All-American from Georgia Tech. Unknowingly then, the Cavaliers acquired two of the greatest players in franchise history that day. Price and Daugherty helped the team turn the corner and join the NBA’s elite while becoming the cornerstones of the Cavaliers’ franchise. While Daugherty started as a rookie, Price learned on the bench for a year before unseating John Bagley. Once a starter, Price never looked back. Widely regarded as one of the best shooters in NBA history, Price and his picture-perfect release guided the Mark Price (No. 25) Cavaliers to their most successful run in franchise history. With the exception of the 1990-91 season in which he Height: 6-0 Weight: 180 tore his ACL and played only 16 games, the Cavaliers made the playoffs and won at least 42 games every year Position: Point Guard Price was a starter. Jersey Retired on November. 13, 1999 The sweet-shooting point guard was named an All-Star four times (1989, 1992-94) and at the time of his retirement was the only Cavalier to be named to an All-NBA Team more than once (1988-89, 1991-94), including All-NBA First Team in 1992-93. Price led the NBA in free throw percentage twice (1991-92, ‘92-93) and won the NBA’s Long Distance Shootout in back-to-back years (1993-94). Not just a shooter, Price ranked in the top 10 in the league in assists in five of his nine seasons as a Cavalier. For his career, Price ranks first among all Cavaliers in three-point field goals made and attempted, assists, steals and free throw percentage. He also ranks among the top 10 all-time in franchise history in points scored (4th), three-point field goal percentage (4th), free throws made (5th), field goals made (6th), field goals attempted (6th), games played (6th), minutes played (6th) and free throws attempted (7th). Price was named to the Cavaliers’ All-Time Starting Five by 32 members of the Northeast Ohio media during the Cavaliers 30th Anniversary season. He was also the leading vote-getter on the Cavs AllTime Team, as voted on by the Cleveland fans. The Cavaliers retired his jersey on November 13, 1999.

Did you know that the famous saying, “Clothes make the man” was a quote by Mark Twain? (And if so, did you know the rest of that quote says, “Naked people have little or no influence on society”?) The Cavaliers have had their share of unique threads over their 36 year history. Cleveland has changed their look 10 times, going full circle – kind of – when they returned to the wine and gold on April 16, 2003. One day after completing a 17-65 season and five weeks before they won the rights to draft an 18-year-old from Akron. Granted, it was a new expression of the wine and gold, but the Cavaliers current threads are among the league’s most popular, something that could not have been said of the previous uniforms. The young man from Akron had a lot to do with it – in one survey after the uniform switch, LeBron James jersey was No. 1 in sales, the Cavaliers uniform, No. 4. But a lot of it has to with the fact that Cleveland’s most recent uniforms are just – for lack of a better expression – really cool. Fans identified with the wine and gold. Not only are they attractive colors as well as the team’s original flavor. But the items themselves – “wine” and “gold” – fit perfectly with the swashbuckling theme of a Cavalier. The Cavaliers don’t just wear the wine and gold, they are the Wine and Gold. The same way Ohio State is the Scarlet and Grey or Michigan is the Maize and Blue. In between the current attire and the first expression of wine and gold back in 1970, the Cavaliers have dabbled in burnt orange, royal blue, bright orange black and pastel blue. There have been three seismic uniform shifts in the franchise’s 38 years, not all good. In 1970, the inaugural Cavaliers donned the original gold uniforms at their 11,000 seat venue – the old Cleveland Arena – on Euclid and 37th. The Cavaliers went with gold at home and wine on the road, a tradition that they continued throughout their first 13 years in the league. The first uni’s had the feathered underscore of “Cavaliers” on each jersey, home and road. The logo, which has (thankfully) survived throughout the club’s three-and-half decades, had the words “Cleveland Cavaliers” wrapped around a basketball and featured a silhouette of a Cavalier figure jousting with his sword. The logo is every bit as recognizable to Clevelanders as the Indians’ “Chief Wahoo.” Cleveland’s new expression of the old expression of the wine and gold came about in 1974 and made their triumphant comeback in 2005. The garb that adorned the “Miracle of Richfield” team featured piping with short horizontal stripes of wine, gold and white stacked along the sides of the shirts and shorts. Again, both the home and away jerseys read “Cavaliers.” Long before the current club donned the Miracle jerseys in an actual game – a 104-79 drubbing of the Knicks on January 8, 2005 – you could see rappers adorned in No. 34 Austin Carr attire on BET or on the streets from Cleveland to the Big Apple. In 1981, as the final remnants of the Miracle squad faded into the sunset, the Cavaliers went to a wine and gold scheme that is more reminiscent of today’s colors than the original hues. The Mike Mitchell-era team went with a metallic gold with a pair of horizontal stripes with the word “Cleveland” written above it in block letters. The organization and the team were making big changes in the 1980s and the radical departure from the club’s original colors – and its identity – came in the form of the burnt orange and royal blue threads with the word “CAVS” written across the chest. The “V” was designed like a hoop with a ball entering it, which also served as Cleveland’s new logo. The Cavaliers retained the colors – and slight variations on the look – throughout their final, and highly successful, years at the Richfield Coliseum. The burnt orange as the primary road color was replaced by the royal blue road uniforms in 1987 and the “CAVS” logo was replaced with the block “Cleveland” before the 1989 season. This attire will forever be linked to the Lenny Wilkens era of excellence that featured the likes of Mark Price, Brad Daugherty, Larry Nance and Hot Rod Williams. When the Cavaliers began play at Quicken Loans Arena in the 1994-95 season, there was once again a radical departure from the previous look. From the wine and gold to the burnt orange and royal blue, the Cavaliers went with pastel blue and black. Home uniforms were white, road black, with a blue splash across the torso and lined lettering that said “CAVS” at home and “Cleveland” on the road, both outlined in orange. The Cavaliers modified this look in 1997, sticking with the color scheme, but losing the mystifying torso splash. Instead, the uniforms featured a more streamlined blue and orange piping along the right side of the shirts and shorts. The futuristic lined letters remained. But in October of 2002, then-owner Gordon Gund decided to bring Cavaliers fans back to the future when he announced, “Our fans take pride in our team and really identify with the things that make Cleveland different. They want a team whose identity was ‘true to Cleveland.’ With that in mind, we set out to have colors, logos and uniforms that reflect our history and look forward at the same time. These new marks represent what our fans and we believe is the right match for Cleveland and for the Cavaliers.” The new colors were announced on October 9 – the current “new expression of wine and gold” – a crimson-hued wine color and a metallic gold, similar to 1981 uni’s. Dark blue, the secondary color, was a tribute to the Cavalier teams of the 1990s. The Cavaliers uniforms may undergo more changes as the LeBron James era unfolds, especially in light of the team’s new ownership. But old school Cavalier fans are just glad that the team recognized its roots and the colors that best represent the team and the city. Like the Boston Celtics green or the Oakland Raiders black and silver, the Cavaliers are their best in the wine and gold. It’s no surprise that the Cavaliers are now lined up for big things. After all, the clothes make the man.

Vice President, Broadcasting Joe Tait will return for his 37th season as the voice of the Cleveland Cavaliers. As the club’s radio play-by-play announcer, Tait has become one of the most recognizable and popular members of the Cavaliers, on or off the court. On March 26th, 2008, when the Cavaliers hosted the New Orleans Hornets, Tait broadcasted his 3,000th Cavaliers game, further illustrating his long and memorable tenure as the voice of the

Cleveland Cavaliers. Tait began as the radio play-by-play announcer for the Cavaliers eight games into their inaugural season in 1970. For the first 11 years of Cavaliers history, he was the voice that let everyone know “It’s basketball time at The Coliseum” (or, “It’s basketball time at the Cleveland Arena” until the 1974-75 season). During that time, he became an institution in the area while earning a reputation as one of the top sportscasters in the country. In 1981, he left Cleveland to become the radio play-by-play announcer of the New Jersey Nets. A year later he handled the play-by-play of Chicago Bulls games on SportsVision, the team’s cable-TV outlet, and broadcast the CBS Radio College Game-of-the-Week. When Gordon and George Gund III took over ownership of the Cavaliers in 1983, one of the first moves they made was to bring Tait back to the Cavaliers radio post for the 1983-84 season. In December 1987, Tait was named Vice President, Broadcasting for the Cavaliers. In that full-time role, Tait was involved in all aspects of the Cavaliers radio and television broadcasting, while continuing his duties as radio broadcaster. From 1987-88 to 1992-93, Tait also performed the television play-by-play duties for the 20 games each season which were telecast on WOIO-19 and the Cavaliers Television Network. For the past 14 seasons, Tait has broadcasted all 82 games on News Radio WTAM 1100 and the Cavaliers Radio Network which covers most of the state of Ohio and parts of Pennsylvania. Tait also served as the radio play-by-play voice of the WNBA Cleveland Rockers from 1997 to 2003. When the team moved from the Coliseum back to downtown Cleveland for the 1994-95 season, Tait had to again change his famous lead-in from “It’s basketball time at The Coliseum” to “It’s basketball time at Gund Arena.” Now entering year number four of the Dan Gilbert led era of Cavaliers basketball, “It’s Basketball Time at Quicken Loans Arena” is the lead-in for each broadcast. Prior to his full-time association with the Cavaliers, Tait broadcast Cleveland Indians baseball for 16 years. He has also done selected college basketball games that were carried nationally on the CBS Radio Network. Tait was named the 2004 “Sportscaster of the Year in Ohio.” He also received the honor in 1974, 1976, 1978, 1991, 1996, 1999 and 2002. In addition, Tait was voted the best radio/TV announcer in the area in a poll conducted by the Cleveland Plain Dealer in 1985 and 1986. Tait kept active during the summer of 1992 as the play-by-play voice of the World Basketball League on both SportsChannel America and ESPN. A graduate of Monmouth College in Illinois, Tait began his radio career while still in college, broadcasting local sports events in the Illinois/Indiana area. In 1969, Tait became the network voice of Indiana University football and the pregame host of Indiana Pacer basketball in the old ABA. A year later, with the birth of the Cavaliers, Tait began his association with the club. Also, Tait was a sportscasting instructor at Ohio University (1966-68) and at Mount Union College (1989-1994). In the fall of 1996, Tait was named to the Board of Trustees for Mount Union College in Alliance, Ohio, where he has been the TV voice of the Purple Raiders for 19 seasons. Throughout his broadcasting career, Tait has been honored with a number of awards, including being elected to the Monmouth College Athletic Hall of Fame in October 1991, to the Media Hall of Fame by the Sports Media Association of Cleveland and Ohio (S.M.A.C.O.) in September 1992 and to the Broadcasters Hall of Fame in October 1992. In November 1996, Tait was awarded the C.S. Williams Founders Award by the Broadcasters Hall of Fame for long and meritorious service in broadcasting. They have recently given him The Broadcasting Legacy Award for 2004. In the summer of 2001, he was inducted into the Cleveland Sports Legends Hall of Fame and the Lorain Sports Hall of Fame. He was also inducted into the Cleveland Press Club Hall of Fame in September of 2003. In January 2008, Tait joined some very select company when he received the prestigious “Lifetime Achievement Award,” presented annually by the Greater Cleveland Sports Commission. Other Cleveland Sports Legends that have received this honor include Jim Brown, Bob Feller, Dick Jacobs, Mark McCormick and Herb Score. Tait and his wife, Jean, reside in Lafayette. 300 | CLEVELAND CAVALIERS
