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.

    Great game and nice shirt

    by Wyomingrose on 10/21/16Schottenstein Center - Columbus

    This was an outing for my grandsons (11 & 13) so they could say, when older) "I saw him play". We had great seats. Every seat in the whole auditorium had a Cav's shirt on it as a gift to each fan. That was really nice...at most events you have to spend unreasonable amounts to get a shirt or souvenir. It was thrilling to see all the players and watch the beauty of how they move on the floor and make the baskets. I really enjoyed this. I'm 73 and love to see people I admire...and I really admire LeBron and the Cavaliers

    Cav's vs Wizards

    by Forrealtho on 10/21/16Schottenstein Center - Columbus

    The atmosphere was FANTASTIC. They keep/get the crowd involved. I have been going to these games since Lebron joined the team. He NEVER disappoints. They have been giving out T-shirts the past couple years. I truly appreciate that. Those guys are REALLY tall. Even the short ones are tall.

    Great night out!

    by MamaG62 on 10/21/16Schottenstein Center - Columbus

    My nephew is in LOVE with the Cavs so mom and I surprised him by going out to dinner and then when we were done, telling him we were headed to the Schott to see the Cavs play. The look on his face was PRICELESS!!! The staff at the Schott are to be commended for a great experience from parking to finding our seats. Having never been there before, they made it very easy to navigate.

    Play By Play

    by AnotherAnnoyedFan on 10/21/16Schottenstein Center - Columbus

    You could tell that this was a preseason game. The Cavs coasted through the whole game and let the Wizards beat them. I left with most of the fans in the under 4 minute mark of the 4th quarter. I understand that no one wants to takes chances and get hurt in a preseason game that doesn't count. What we spent money on this night was to see people put forth minimum effort and collect checks. No passion.

    Cav's

    by Forrealtho on 10/15/15Schottenstein Center - Columbus

    I enjoyed all of the pre-game events outside the arena. VERY entertaining. I had my picture taken with LeBron's statue. That was the main reason I went. I love the Cav's.
