Gibson said his team’s hard work finally paid off.
"I think we learned from previous games to not give in, to continue to fight, and finish the game the right way," said Gibson.
But in some ways, the Cavaliers’ long-awaited victory was more a deliverance from humiliation than reason to celebrate. Cleveland head coach Byron Scott said his team needs to perform the way it did against the Clippers in every game.
"I told the guys it’s kind of bittersweet," said Scott. "I’m glad that it’s over with, but if we had played this hard last game, we would have won."
On Wednesday, Cleveland’s apathetic 103-94 loss to the Detroit Pistons marked its 26th in a row, and tied the Cavaliers with the National Football League’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the longest losing streak among the four U.S. major professional sports - basketball, American-style football, baseball and ice hockey.
Two days earlier on Monday, the Cavs set the NBA’s dubious all-time losing streak record with their 25th consecutive defeat.
Scott will see if his players can maintain their winning drive and determination on Sunday when the Cleveland Cavaliers go on the road to face the struggling Washington Wizards.
