Michael Jordan ruining the Cavaliers needs a deep rewind | CHOSEN: Chapter 2

High School Sports

Haven’t seen Chapter 1 yet? Well, this might help:
Chapter 3 coming July 17th.

To fully appreciate the Cleveland Cavaliers’ pursuit of the 2016 NBA championship, we must go back to the second chapter of Cavs history. In the ’80s, new ownership saved the franchise from leaving Cleveland. New management brought in the right people to form a promising young contender, the so-called “Team of the ’90s.” But Cleveland’s rise coincided with that of Michael Jordan, and after MJ snuffed out the Cavaliers’ late-’80s postseason runs, the “Team of the ’90s” self-destructed. Let’s remember how Jordan’s dominance drove the injured, frustrated Cavs to some bad moves that sunk them back to rock bottom, extending their historic drought through the end of the century.
