About
Cleveland Cavaliers History
The Cavaliers joined the NBA as an expansion team in 1970 and made it to the playoffs for the first time in the 1975–76 season. The history of the team changed when they selected LeBron James — who grew up in the nearby city of Akron, Ohio — straight out of high school with the No. 1 overall pick of the 2003 NBA Draft.
James won Rookie of the Year and led the Cavs to the playoffs in his third season. They made it to the NBA Finals the following year, but were swept by the San Antonio Spurs. After Cleveland lost to the Boston Celtics in the 2009–10 playoffs, James announced his intention to take his talents to the Miami HEAT. He played in Miami for four seasons before returning to the Cavs for the 2014–15 campaign.
In 2016, led by James, the Cavaliers won their first NBA championship, overcoming a 3-1 deficit, and marking Cleveland's first major sports title since 1964.

Rating: 5 out of 5by Anonymous on 10/23/14Schottenstein Center - Columbus Could see the entire court and all the plays. Tickets were on the half court line and were just higher up
Rating: 2 out of 5 Not much fun
by Nooksangel on 10/23/14Schottenstein Center - ColumbusI was looking forward to seeing the NBA in action, but it turned out to be sad state of affairs. My seat was in the upper sections, which would have been ok at any other arena, but you couldn't even distinguish the players. The overhead screen at the Schott are horrible and don't help at all. Also, the ushers are of no use whatsoever. People were streaming in and out for the first two quarters looking for their seats and blocking our views while they stood there in the darkness trying to figure out where their seats were. When you go to the Arena, downtown, no one is allowed to come in while the game in is play. I got so frustrated that I left at half time and went home to watch it on tv. I finally got to see who was playing and enjoyed the rest of the game. It's amazing to me that they haven't upgraded the overhead screens to help people, who have spent good hard earned money, to be able to enjoy the event they came to see.
Rating: 5 out of 5by Anonymous on 10/23/14Schottenstein Center - Columbus Great Seats, Good Venue and a solid Game. Not much more I could ask for. New Passbook tickets are great as well, makes it easy for a group to meetup in our seats as opposed to outside the venue.
Rating: 3 out of 5 cavs won
by levelle on 10/23/14Schottenstein Center - Columbusit took almost an hour to get in lot then the ticket scanners were not working . When they did scan the workers took forever to do it. Food lines were slow. They need a younger age of worker there ushers were very rude and cranky. One was named Beth guess a supervisor there she yelled at my sons for having basketball bouncing i spent 500 on merch alone, They schott is always clean and plenty of security. wish there were more food options around the facility. prices are high.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Bulls vs Cavs
by BallinGuru on 10/23/14Schottenstein Center - ColumbusAlthough i was in the upper level seats, this games was amazing. I have been to NBA games in the past but this one was the most entertaining. Derrick Rose had 30 and K. Irving somewhere in the 25 pt range. With Cleveland's first year having k. Love, James, and Irving they proved the team to look out for and D. Rose coming off an injury he showed he isstill the quickest guard in the league.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Excellent Event
by sportmom72 on 10/23/14Schottenstein Center - ColumbusBought these tickets for my son and his girlfriend...they were hard to come by as the event was sold out practically before the tickets went on sale to the general public! I tried to buy at a ticketmaster in a Kroger starting at 10:00 am. I stood in line with a couple of people and the girl kept saying there were only single tickets available. However, she said that if you just keep searching sometimes a couple will pop up where a credit card or something has been denied. I rushed home and did this and I think my son was up high, but he was thrilled to just see his "Cavaliers" play and with LeBron back in the mix!

Rating: 5 out of 5 Great Place to See a Basketball Game
by kristhrasher on 10/21/14Cintas Center - CincinnatiSo much better than seeing them in the giant "Q". The parking was quick and easy, food and drink were tasty and affordable. Our family had a wonderful time and the Cavs won!
Rating: 4 out of 5 Great preseason experience
by BallinGuru on 10/21/14Cintas Center - CincinnatiIt really gives the fans a chance to take the entire family to a NBA game for an affordable price. It also gives cities such as Columbus and Cincinnati a live game experience of preofessional basketball that they wouldnt normally have in their city. I believe this is a great opportunity to reach all NBA fans.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Cintas Center is the Perfect Basketball Experience
by Merrt on 10/21/14Cintas Center - CincinnatiThe Cintas Center is the perfect environment for watching a basketball game! An NBA game in that atmosphere was outstanding! The perfect homecoming for David West and James Posey!
Rating: 3 out of 5 Reaffirmed my love of college basketball
by CincyPhil on 10/21/14Cintas Center - CincinnatiNBA basketball is boring and draws a totally different crowd than college basketball. It was nice seeing David West play again and was happy to see LeBron play in person, but I never need to see another NBA game of any kind.

by Akrongal71 on 10/20/14Cintas Center - CincinnatiThe preseason game Cavs vs Pacers was a great treat for this Akron-hometown family. The family loved it! Great seats! Decent price. But getting tickets even with presale code...WOW! That was CRAZY!
