Cleveland Cavaliers have Terry Talkin' Kyrie Irving and attacking ... and other top stories.

  • Cleveland Cavaliers have Terry Talkin' Kyrie Irving and attacking ...

    CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Ever since Tyronn Lue took over as head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers, life has changed for Kyrie Irving. Lue was wise enough to create a role that fit Irving, rather than try to pound him into the traditional point guard role. The Cavs coach asked himself, "What does Irving do best?" The answer came quickly, "He attacks the basket. He can dribble past about anyone." That's when Lue came up with the idea of Irving as "the attack guard." Lue replaced David Blatt at the mid..

    Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Philadelphia 76ers, Game 6
    PHILADELPHIA -- The Cavs (5-0) look to make it seven wins in a row over the 76ers (0-4) when they play at The Center at 7 p.m. What's up with the Cavs: Barring tripping, falling, and breaking several bones as soon as the ball goes up, LeBron James will pass Hakeem Olajuwon (26,945 career points) for 10th on the NBA's all-time scoring list. James needs just two points. Much has been made of the relative dearth in scoring for James (he's averaging 22.4 points -- second lowest of his career), but..

    Cleveland Indians have Terry Talkin' about the Mike Napoli question ...
    CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Cleveland Indians want to re-sign Mike Napoli, and the team's cleanup hitter has indicated he'd like to stay in Cleveland. But that doesn't mean there will be a deal. I write that knowing it's possible the Tribe could make Napoli what is known as "the qualifying offer." It's the average of the top 50 salaries in baseball -- or $17.2 million. But I'd be shocked if the Tribe did that. The reason for the qualifying offer is if Napoli signs somewhere else, the Indians will r..

    Cleveland Browns have Terry Talkin' about New England and Jamie ...
    CLEVELAND, Ohio -- For several weeks before the NFL trading deadline, the Cleveland Browns were on the phone. Among other things, they were turning down rather mediocre trade offers for Joe Thomas. They had no intention of dealing their All-Pro left tackle in the middle of the season for uninspiring packages of drafts picks, etc. As I wrote last week, the Browns believe Thomas has tremendous value for four reasons: He is still a Pro Bowl player. His contract is very reasonable for a star left..

    Hillary Clinton campaigns in Cleveland with Jay Z
    CLEVELAND — It may be an unusual warm-up act for a 69-year-old grandmother of two, but these are unusual times: Firing up a crowd in Cleveland for Hillary Clinton on Friday were four rap stars, throwing down the occasional R-rated rhyme, and a surprise, legendary guest: Beyonce. The latter caused something near hysteria among the enthusiastic, dancing crowd at Cleveland State University. “Less than 100 years ago women did not have the right to vote,” Beyonce said to a screaming crowd. “Look how..

    Cleveland Indians can't say enough good things about Terry ...
    CLEVELAND, Ohio – Chris Antonetti ran out of adjectives so he turned to GM Mike Chernoff for help. Antonetti, Indians president of baseball operations, and Chernoff were talking about manager Terry Francona on Friday a couple of hours after the team exercised the 2019 and 2020 options on Francona's contract. Francona guided the Indians to the AL Central division title, AL pennant and seventh game of the World Series before they lost to the Cubs Wednesday night at Progressive Field. The India..

    College Football 2016: Week 10 games to watch, live scoreboard ...
    CLEVELAND, Ohio — If No. 15 LSU has a chance at pulling an upset over No. 1 Alabama today (8 p.m., ABC), it rests on the feet of tailback Leonard Fournette. He has been Superman against everybody else, but is an ordinary man against the Crimson Tide. For that to change, Fournette likely has to do against Alabama what he does against everybody else -- ring up 100 yards rushing and average over 5.0 yards per carry. If he does that, and the Tigers win, look for talk about Fournette being back i..

The people that run the Cleveland school district want you and your classmates to graduate, so they're not just leaving that up to your teachers, principals and guidance counselors.

    Why Cody Kessler wouldn't trade places with Dak Prescott right now
    CLEVELAND, Ohio — Cowboys rookie quarterback Dak Prescott has won six straight games, is playing behind the line of the century, has a star running back in Ezekiel Elliott, is the new face of America's Team and is on the cover of ESPN The Magazine this week. But Browns quarterback Cody Kessler, a close friend, wouldn't trade places with him despite the fact he's on an 0-8 team heading into their showdown Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium.
