Clicking
鈥淚t shows just how much of a powerhouse the Cavs can be," Pluto said. "Not just in this game, but all six games in the playoffs so far. When they are clicking and they are playing together, they are a very, very scary team for anybody else in the NBA.鈥
Last night鈥檚 win gave the Cavs a perfect 10-0 record against the Hawks in the playoffs. The team now travels to Atlanta to play the team on the Hawks home court tomorrow.

鈥淭he goal always isn鈥檛 just to win the game; it鈥檚 to win the series as quickly as possible,鈥 Pluto said. 鈥淚n fact, one of my themes in my stories is 'Go to Atlanta, aim for the sweep and try to keep anything cataclysmic from happening.'鈥
