The #Cavs failed this postseason in embarrassing fashion. The only way they'll overcome it is by owning it. That necessary first step started Wednesday morning. "We could go 82 and 0, no one would care." open.substack.com/pub/theinsid...

There's a lot to talk about from today's #Cavs exit interviews. I'll be covering this stuff for the next few days on Locked On Cavs. Want to close the season/open up the offseason with a mailbag episode next week. Send any questions about this season or the future my way!

As exit interviews are underway on the #Cavs season I just wanted to say thanks to everybody that listened to Locked On Cavs or subscribed to The Inside Shot. 313 podcasts and 151 articles later, the season came to an end sooner than expected, but it truly was a treat to cover every single day.

Donovan Mitchell was one of the last people to leave the arena on Tuesday, walking gingerly across the floor one last time more than two hours after the final buzzer sounded on the season. Knowing the Cavs came up short and need to wear this all summer. open.substack.com/pub/theinsid...

#Cavs have shown some signs of life here. They've cut Indiana's lead down to 87-86 with a 10-2 run to open up the fourth quarter. 9:24 left in regulation.

#Cavs are getting booed off the floor right now as Kenny Atkinson calls for timeout. They're 3-of-19 shooting in this series and that might not even do justice to how bad the offense has looked. They're down 73-65 with 3:14 left in the third quarter.

#Cavs lead the Pacers 56-52 at the break. Tyrese Haliburton hit five 3s in the second quarter and nearly erased a 19-point lead. Cavs have made just one 3-pointer on the night so far. Donovan Mitchell leads the Cavs with 16 points and Evan Mobley has 14.

Pacers have started to connect on 3-pointers here in the second quarter. They've hit three of them and have cut the #Cavs 19-point lead down to 10 at 48-38 with 5:44 left in the first half.

#Cavs lead the Pacers 31-19 after the first quarter. They certainly played with force in the first 12 minutes despite missing all five 3-pointers they took. They've been able to get to the basket and the foul stripe routinely. Mitchell has 13, Mobley has 10.

Whew. That's a great pass from Donovan to Jarrett Allen for a dunk. #Cavs are up 21-12. Neither team has been able to shoot the ball yet, but the Cavs needed this sort of start.

That was a great cut by Mobley. He noticed Siakam cheating up to Donovan Mitchell on the left wing and went right behind him for the easy dunk.

#Cavs trail the Pacers 38-23 after the first quarter and they're lucky to be trailing by only 15 points. Pretty bad offensive execution for Cleveland and the Pacers shot 60% from deep. They've got a lot of work to do.

Not a great start for the #Cavs, who trail 12-5 with 9:27 left in the first quarter. Mobley splashed his first 3-pointer of the night home but then airballed his next one. Cavs have already turned it over twice and the Pacers haven't missed a shot.

Kenny Atkinson on limiting Haliburton: "Just will. Just be opportunistic. He's so slippery. It's not a guy that's stagnant and doesn't move. He runs as much as anybody in the league. Reminds me of Steph. We've been trying to do our best trying to limit his touches."

The #Cavs are back in this series partially because they were fully healthy last night and made some great adjustments. But they're mostly back in this series because Donovan Mitchell is doing things only one other guy in team history could do. open.substack.com/pub/theinsid...

#Cavs with a very impressive 126-104 win with their backs against the wall in Indiana. Donovan Mitchell was spectacular, finishing with 43 points, nine rebounds and five assists. Evan Mobley was very impactful in his return from an ankle injury and the Cavs officially have hope.

Donovan Mitchell checks out with 43 points, nine rebounds and five assists. He was a plus-35 in 37 minutes. Absolute superstar stuff from him when the #Cavs badly needed it.

Absolutely massive 3-pointers on back-to-back possessions by Donovan Mitchell and Max Strus. #Cavs are back up by 17 with 6:57 left. Strus has been phenomenal tonight. One of the best games he's had for the Cavs.

#Cavs lead the Pacers 97-79 after three quarters. Indiana played much better in that quarter and the Cavs didn't play the 3-2 zone with the same group as the first half. Donovan Mitchell leads all scorers with 27 points. Allen and Strus both have 17 while Mobley has 16. Big 12 minutes left here.

I don't think so. Him closing the half with Merrill instead after Garland got into foul trouble was telling, I thought.

#Cavs lead the Pacers 66-45 at halftime. Cavs played zone defense for a majority of the second quarter and Indiana had no idea what to do against it. Cleveland outscored the Pacers 34-13 in the second. Donovan Mitchell leads all scorers with 17 points. Max Strus is a plus-29 in 17 min.

#Cavs and Pacers are tied at 32 after the first quarter. Cavs led by as many as 15 but had a horrendous final five minutes where they were outscored 22-7. Myles Turner leads all scorers with 12 points, Max Strus and Evan Mobley both have eight.
