CLEVELAND – The Cleveland Cavaliers will play a seven-game preseason schedule in preparation for the 2012-13 NBA regular season.

I always liked how the NBA does preseason games outside of their home town. Will be cool to see the Bulls and Cavs in Assembly Hall. I would have liked to see one in Toledo like the Pistons did two years ago. It would be smart of them to try to win over Toledo rather than Cincinnati given the proximity of Toledo.

I like the choice of UIUC...reminiscent of when Da Bears played at their field.

Toledo has a split of Cleveland and Detroit fans in every sport, which seems to vary on how each team is doing. Cincy people tend to either not care about the NBA or root against the Cavs, it seems.

Exactly. I can't see many people from Cincy driving 4 hours to see the Cavs. They need to focus on Toledo.

Yeah it seems so, albeit weird.

I for one am stoked at being able to see the Cavs live w/o having to drive 4 hours... Even though it's pre-season!
 
When do these go on sale? Tryna get a good seat for the Cincy one.
 
Never mind answered my own question lol

I'm really excited about the game in Canton.

I'm glad the Cavs aren't half assed about their D-league team in Canton, I love how they're actually using them & the city well.

Huge Cavs fan from Toledo and would love to see the Cavs come into town for a preseason game. That Pistons game they had a couple years back was promoted like crazy and a big draw from what I remember. I really think they could grow the Toledo fan base big time and steal away some Detroit people we have here in this city, most of whom think Brandon Knight is basically better than Michael Jordan and will lead them to multiple championships. :chuckles:

I would suggest going to a Pacers game. Only about an hour and a half away.


Back to the original point, the Cavs have played at US Bank arena previously. There is quite a large Cleveland fam base here as there are quite a few transplants from Cleveland/Columbus. I have a feeling the Cavs do this to reward us a bit. Plus cincinnati doesn't have a basketball market, so perhaps they want is transplants to get others interested? I don't really care. I go because its cheap seats to watch the Cavs up close and personal.

Going to school in Toledo, there's definitely more Detroit fan locals than Cleveland fans.

If you're around the university than you may find more Cleveland fans as students, but permanent residents favor Detroit. I think it'd be smart to play in Toledo though.
 
Definitely going to try to go the game in Canton. It'll be pretty beast to see Kyrie playing a few blocks away from my house. :D
 
Of these 7 games, how many will be televised on NBATV or otherwise? Can't find it anywhere online.. Thanks
 
Is anyone willing to hook those up that aren't able to make the games? I'd like to watch the games that are streamed...anyone do that here?
 
The season should start already:mad: I hate this time of the year, not a baseball or NFL fan... guess I gotta survive by watching german soccer league :rolleyes:

Lunen, does that make you a Borussia Dortmund fan? My team (Ajax) will have a hard time in the Champions League this year.

Yes, I wish NBA season would get started.
