The BIGGEST comeback of the NBA season – Cleveland Cavaliers, Cavs News, Dean Wade
Dean Wade just led the largest fourth quarter comeback of the entire NBA season erasing a 22o deficit in front of the Kelsey brothers and saving bobblehead knight from being a total disaster we can’t even have ni stuff around here just RI Jason Kelsey Wade single-handedly outscored
The Boston Celtics 20- 17 in the fourth quarter while Cleveland’s defense held the best team in the NBA to just eight of 26 shoot shooting to close the game it was an incredible clutch performance from Wade coming exactly one week after Max Shu went on a similar run against
The Dallas Mavericks feet stru from mid court if it wasn’t for these two heroic shooting nights the Cavs would be feeling a whole lot worse right now they entered this game against Boston in a bit of a funk fumbling a double OT game in Chicago last week and then failing to
Beat a depleted New York Knicks team that was without four of their best players both of these losses felt disastrous and with Donovan Mitchell and Max shw both sideline due to injury this was not the best time for the Cavs to run into the buzs saw that has become the Boston
Celtics in their previous game the Celtics dismantled the Warriors by 52 points and for most of the night in Cleveland it seemed like the Cavaliers just didn’t stand a chance in early 11 run put Boston up front and while the Cavs were generating clean looks and playing quality defense the Celtics just
Always felt a step ahead Boston did a great job of forcing mismatches and attacking Cleveland’s smaller Defenders Brown is being defended by Darius Garland so they promptly bully him in the post and Jason Tatum was having his way all first half burying 22 points on five
Of six shooting from downtown six of 13 from three-point territory cor Tatum over Porter beats the buzzer Jason Tatum on the other side Evan Mobley was having a nightmarish game in front of his biggest detractor Tim bontemps shooting 0 A5 in the first half and stumbling around like a newborn baby
Deer and things turned from bad to ugly when Moy twisted his ankle landing on a dunk further putting the Cavaliers down the injury hole the Cavs had been on a run before the injury and managed to pull within four points before Boston delivered what felt like the death blow as Mo’s ankle
Was swelling up so was the Celtics lead Boston’s ability to space the floor was proving to be too much for Cleveland to contain and very quickly it was a 22-point Advantage for the Celtics this is where Dean Wade comes into play a simple pick and pop gets the
Ball rolling but don’t take this for granted Wade has long been a player who struggles with with confidence but his willingness to shoot has changed everything Wade was one for four from downtown at this point in the game and he hadn’t even played in the third quarter but he checks into the fourth
And has no hesitation pulling another one with a Defender right in his face Wade is attempting and making three-pointers at a career Best Rate this season and that’s the difference that confidence can make the Cavs get backto back stops and scores from Carris Levert so when Wade pulls another
Confident looking shot the momentum is officially starting to swing the Cavs get their wires crossed and Boston makes them pay right away but it’s a big time three from aoro that keeps the Cavs on their tail they continue to scrap defensively by forcing three missed shots all in this same
Possession and this time it’s George Nang who lets a three-pointer fly knows that you can see the all of a sudden that lead is down to 10 and somewhere Austin Carr is cackling when Wade throws it down this is starting to get ridiculous and we haven’t even gotten to the best parts
The Cavs run off of the porzingis Miss three and it’s a Dean Wade triple that brings Travis Kelce to his feet lever bullet feed Garland kick Wade is he feeling it oh yeah the crowd is defening at this point and when Tatum’s 3 rattles out Dean Wade shows him how it’s
Done Cavaliers trying to move a little closer again yes sir the Celtics finally respond with a tough shot for KP in the post but Cleveland is Right Back at It forcing free throws getting stops and hitting a three to tie the game wait for KN
Gotame this place is in a frenzy now and the Cavs nearly give up a costly three-pointer by trying to avoid switching Garland onto Brown like we saw before thankfully the shot is Off the Mark and who else but Dean Wade would save a possession and hit the three to
Give Cleveland the lead Wade SP the Cavs avoid the switch again and Allen’s length is enough to force Tatum into a Miss but when the Cav split a pair of free throws and Levert is back doored into Oblivion the game is back hanging in the balance this is where Darius Garland
Nearly throws the game away forcing it into the paint and out of bounds and then on the next possession Miss queuing on a lob attempt to Allen this play was reminiscent of a lob that Ricky Rubio tossed to complete a similar comeback against the Celtics in
2021 but the timing here by Garland is just a tad too late and porzingis is able to make a great recovery the broken up lob leads to a run out and it’s a bad foul that leads to an end one opportunity for christops the long strides layup good and a foul
Now facing a one-point deficit Garland finally does the right thing and attacks the basket himself but when he misses the layup who else but Dean Wade is there to clean it up to the rim left hand no it’s Dean Wade coming out of nowhere a heroic comeback is now just one stop
Away from being finished and after consecutive mistakes Garland buckles up and manages to force Tatum into a difficult fallway jumper this was originally called the foul but a well time challenge overturns the call and secures the largest fourth quarter comeback in franchise history and for that we have Dean Wade to
Thank and that’s a wrap from the rocket mortgage you already know baby getting the dove I think we ready for playoffs baby let’s turn this thing up Cleveland Cleveland forever Baby
Dean Wade just led the largest comeback of the NBA season. Here is how he did it.

I feel like more and more Darius Garland is associated with the phrase "throwing the game away". He's just an awful decisionmaker for a max contract point guard.
Dean the Machine taking it to Larry Bird. It’d be so cool if Andy Reid was sitting next to Travis Kelce. 🏀😺
That's two big come backs against Dallas but the Boston game was something the Cavs can build on especially after the Knicks loss. Big props goes out to Wade's performance.
Go Cavs basketball 🏀 🏀🏀
