“We’re rolling with what we’ve got,” Garland said postgame Saturday. “I think it’s more than enough to get it done.”
Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Chicago Bulls, March 26, 2022CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Less than an hour after their crushing loss to the Chicago Bulls, it would have been rational for the Cleveland Cavaliers to be in a somber mood and speak with a dejected tone.
Once getting as high as No. 2 in the East, uplifted by a stunning start, this second-half slide has caused them to plummet five positions and into a spot they desperately hoped to avoid. “Reality is what reality is,” Bickerstaff said. “We’ve got young guys that are trying to figure it out and you never figure it out until you’re in those positions. You know and you’ve seen through time, most games are built through heartbreak because you understand what that feels like and then you have to figure it out and you learn from there. I’m proud of our guys that it wasn’t the entire game. It didn’t take ‘em the whole game to figure it out.
Each game this time of the year is meaningful. Even a loss. Garland, still just 22 years old and in his third NBA season, believes he’s learning. He spoke about the importance of playing with confidence, executing the game plan, taking better care of the ball, giving extra effort, increasing the physicality, paying attention to the small details and trying to get the team a quality shot on every possession. That’s what playoff basketball is about.
Chicago, which won on the road Saturday for the first time since March 9, plays five of its final eight at home. The Bulls have tiebreakers over both Cleveland and Toronto. According to Tankathon, the remaining schedule is a bit more daunting, considered the sixth-most difficult in the NBA, with showdowns against Boston, Milwaukee and Miami.
