Being in the lottery every year. Nick Gilbert expects the Cleveland Cavaliers are through with it, and if so he sent them out a winner again. The Cavaliers and their owner's son beat the odds for the second time in three years, winning the lottery Tuesday night to give them the No. 1 pick for the June 27 NBA draft. ...

He's trying to correct it. Mike Brown gave him a second chance. Conceding publicly for the first time that he should have never fired Brown as Cleveland's coach during the turbulent summer of 2010, Gilbert said Wednesday he's thrilled to be able to r...

Brown, who led the Cavs to the playoffs in all five seasons he coached them from 2005-10, has agreed in principle to a contract to return as their coach for a second time, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press on Tuesday.

Now they're both looking for work, and the NBA's coaching carousel is already spinning in three cities. Scott was fired by the Cleveland Cavaliers, Frank was ousted by the Detroit Pistons and Doug Collins resigned as coach of the Philadelphia 76ers, all three Thursday, a day after the end ...

With everything the Cavaliers' All-Star guard has experienced during two seasons in the NBA, nothing prepared him for this. This was as painful as any injury. "I just lost my head coach," Irving said, his voice barely above a whisper. "This is all new to me right now. I'm ...

Like an ordinary fan, he watched the Heat, who had some guy named Jarvis Vernado playing for them. And Miami won without James — and most of its other stars. James sat on the bench in street clothes as Norris Cole stripped Kyrie Irving of the ball with 2.2 seconds left to give Miami,...

Anthony continued a push to win his first NBA scoring title with 31 points and 14 rebounds in just 30 minutes, and the New York Knicks bounced back after having their winning streak stopped at 13 games one night earlier by beating the Cleveland Cavaliers 1...

The scoreboard leaked fluid, causing a long delay. The home team, missing its top three scorers, built a mammoth lead over the defending NBA champions. A fan sprinted onto the court, hoping to convince LeBron James to come back home. Just an ordinary night in Cleveland. James made it a...

But LeBron James wouldn't give up. "That guy right there doesn't want to lose in this building," teammate Dwayne Wade said, nodding toward James, who left many angry Cavaliers fans behind when he bolted for Miami as a free agent three years ago.

Kid can do it all. His durability is debatable. Irving could miss the next month — and maybe the rest of this season — with a sprained left shoulder, the latest injury to sideline the Cavaliers' All-Star guard who has missed 29 games in his first two NBA seasons with...

The New York Knicks picked themselves up and won without him. Amare Stoudemire scored 22 points, J.R.

James scored 28 points, Wade scored 11 of his 24 in the final five minutes — when Miami needed him most — and the Heat extended the NBA's longest current winning streak to 11 games, beating the Cleveland Cavalie...

Given the fact the Nuggets are the NBA's longest active winning streak, Karl has good reason to feel that way.
