Donovan Mitchell poses a challenge to King LeBron James in the upcoming match between the Cavaliers and the Lakers.

The Cavaliers are feeling good before their next game against the Lakers.

After a short break, the Cavaliers are feeling fully ready for their upcoming matchup with the Lakers.

When the Cleveland Cavaliers lost their fourth straight game at home to the Miami Heat, they were upset. Max Strus said it was awful to play the Heat, his old team, because the Cavaliers, his current team, were getting crushed on the outside. Head coach J.B. Bickerstaff of the Cleveland Cavaliers said that the team was feeling very emotional during the game, especially after beating the Philadelphia 76ers in overtime, which made them tired.

When the final buzzer went off, Bickerstaff made it clear that the team needed a break to calm down and regroup. After a crаzy start to the season, the Cavaliers were glad that Thanksgiving was the next day. It gave them a chance to take a break from hoops and catch their breath.

Bickerstaff told ClutchPoints, “Our jobs are very hard, both mentally and physically, because of what we do.” “Any chance you get to step back and think about your priorities again is a good one.” That seems like the point of Thanksgiving.

“A game like Philadelphia leads into a game like Miami, where feelings are high and then low. It’s like a roller coaster.” After that, everyone just needs a day to rest.”

Bickerstaff was right, and Strus agreed with him after having a terrible time against the Heat. A lot of people from Chicago came to visit and stay with Strus in Cleveland, where he held his first Thanksgiving dinner. Since Strus “makes the big bucks now,” he hired someone to cook for them. He thinks that taking a break, even if it was only for 24 hours, was important for the Cavs.

“It was nice to get away from it,” Strus told ClutchPoints. “Some of my family is here. Not all of them, but a lot of them. They came down for Thanksgiving, which was stressful in and of itself.” But everything went well, and it was a nice day to spend with family and not play basketball.

Allen, on the other hand, already supports this method a lot and thought it was great that Bickerstaff and his teammates were willing to just take a break.

Allen told ClutchPoints, “I’m a big fan of taking a break from basketball, even if it’s just for one day a month.” “All you need is time to start over.” It’s good to take a step back and think about what’s important because I don’t think anyone can focus on just one thing for too long.

Allen is right, even though Thanksgiving was a great chance for the Cavaliers to start over. There are 82 games in the NBA regular season, and as Bickerstaff said, it can be very hard оn the mind and body. Seeing small chances, like Thanksgiving or the big holidays coming up in December, can give Cleveland the breathers it needs to keep going.

When a team says they need a break this early in the season, it might be a little worrying. But the Cavaliers are riding their own wave and not paying attention to what’s going on around them, just like the mantra they made around Kid Cudi’s song “Surfin’.” It’s okay if the wave you’re riding goes over, but you need to wait for the swell to come back up. Because these breaks don’t happen very often, they’re important for a team to get through the regular season, especially after tough losses to teams like the Heat.

Now that Cleveland has rested and refocused, they are ready to play the Los Angeles Lakers in the first game of a back-to-back.
