In one of the Cavs’ closest games, they played a familiar foe in the Atlanta Hawks on April 1, 2016. It ended up being a preview of sorts for the semifinals. Although not their smallest margin of victory, the Cavs won this game by just two points in overtime, thanks to LeBron, Kyrie and a few other contributors.

LeBron almost had a triple-double, scoring 29 points, grabbing an amazing 16 rebounds, dishing out nine assists and three steals and one block. Kyrie didn’t have a great shooting game but still recorded 20 points, six rebounds, seven assists, two steals and two blocks.

Love added 15 points, six rebounds, four assists and one steal, while Smith added 12 points, two rebounds and three assists. Shumpert had 11 points, five rebounds and two steals, while Thompson had nine points, 14 rebounds, one assist, one steal and two blocks.

The Cavs snuck away with the overtime win and a final score of 110-108.
