Cavaliers-Hawks Preview

By NOEY KUPCHAN

After alternating wins and losses over a nine-game stretch, the Atlanta Hawks could get on a roll against the reeling Cleveland Cavaliers.

With Al Horford's status unknown, the Hawks try to make it two in a row Monday night as they host a Cavaliers team mired in a season-worst eight-game losing streak.

Sitting percentage points behind fifth-place Chicago and 1 1/2 games in back of Brooklyn for fourth place in the Eastern Conference, Atlanta (41-33) opened a four-game homestand with Saturday's 97-88 win over Orlando. Josh Smith had 21 points and nine rebounds and Devin Harris added 17 points and six assists, but it was Ivan Johnson who stole the show.

With Zaza Pachulia out for the season and Horford sidelined for a second straight game due to a stomach illness, Johnson compiled 21 points and 10 rebounds in a career-high 34:28 off the bench.

"(Smith) has great length and athleticism," Magic coach Jacque Vaughn. "The Hawks have big, strong, physical guys that make it tough to score on them. If it's not Horford or Pachulia, then it's Ivan Johnson."

Atlanta improved to 5-0 when Johnson plays at least 28 minutes and 6-2 when he scores more than 10 points.

"He's always - since last year - when somebody has gone out of the lineup, he's been coming in and stepping up and playing big minutes for us," said Smith, averaging 20.8 points over the last six games. "This has just been the Ivan Johnson that we've grown to know."

Atlanta also got a boost from fellow reserve Shelvin Mack, who added eight points.

"Ivan was the man," coach Larry Drew said. "And Shelvin Mack is kind of like a mini-Ivan with his energy."

While the Hawks haven't posted back-to-back wins since a three-game run March 13-17, they have to like their chances Monday.

Cleveland (22-50) has been outscored by an average of 13.7 points during its skid and saw its woes continue Sunday with a 112-92 loss at last-place New Orleans.

Kyrie Irving scored 31 points in his first game back since missing eight due to a shoulder injury, but the Cavaliers struggled defensively against the Hornets, who shot 54.1 percent and held a 45-31 edge on the glass.

"We came out soft (in the second half)," said coach Byron Scott, whose team was outscored 64-43 over the last two quarters. "I did not think we came out with the same intensity that we should have. I do not know if they were just tired or whatever the case may be.

"When you're down 20 points, you cannot think to pick it up and try to come back. It just does not happen that often in this league."

The Cavaliers had dropped seven straight to the Hawks by an average of 14.6 points before taking two of three meetings this season, including a 99-83 victory Jan. 9 behind 33 points from Irving. Tristan Thompson and Tyler Zeller added 11 points apiece and combined for 26 boards that night.

Irving is averaging 30.0 points on 61.1 percent shooting over his last three matchups versus Atlanta. While the Cavaliers have gone 9-4 when Irving scores at least 29 this season, they are 2-10 on the road when playing on the second of back-to-backs.

Cleveland has allowed 108.6 points per game in dropping five straight on the road.

Hawks hand Cavaliers ninth straight loss

ATLANTA (AP) Devin Harris and the Atlanta Hawks picked up right where they left off.

Harris scored a season-high 25 points and Josh Smith nearly added a triple-double Monday night as the Hawks beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 102-94 to improve their chances of securing home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs.

Harris, who scored 13 of his 17 points in the fourth quarter of Saturday's win over the visiting Magic, had Atlanta's first seven points and scored 11 in the first quarter as the Hawks built a 25-19 lead.

"I thought Devin Harris did a phenomenal job from start to finish," said Hawks coach Larry Drew, whose team alternated wins and losses for nine games prior to Monday. "His speed and quickness were there."

Smith had 18 points, 14 rebounds and eight assists before a sparse crowd in Philips Arena to help the Hawks (42-33) pull within one game of Brooklyn (42-31) for fourth place in the Eastern Conference.

Reserve Marreese Speights scored 14 of his 22 in the final quarter, but the Cavs (22-51) did not seriously threaten after pulling within 58-56 early in the third period.

Shaun Livingston, starting with Kyrie Irving not playing in the second night of a back-to-back, had 14 points and six assists in Cleveland's ninth straight loss.

"Overall, I thought we played extremely hard, competed," said Cleveland coach Byron Scott, who has recently fielded questions about his team's heart. "If we battled like that the rest of the season, play that hard, with that type of fire . . . then we'll be OK. I've been waiting for that all season."

The Cavs' last lead of the night came when guard Wayne Ellington hit a jumper for a 5-4 edge.

Atlanta wasn't particularly sharp, but managed to win consecutive games - albeit against two of the league's least imposing opponents - for the first time in three weeks.

"My message was very simple to our guys . . . we really head to focus on us tonight, making sure we do the things we've been doing pretty much all year," Drew said. "As the season winds down, it's important that we don't lose focus."

Cleveland shot 51 percent in the first half and outrebounded the Hawks 23-18, but the Hawks made six 3-pointers to the Cavs' one. Atlanta's Kyle Korver was good on three 3-pointers to tie Reggie Miller for the fourth-longest streak (68 games) in NBA history making at least one.

Korver was 3 for 6 behind the arc as the Hawks built a 52-44 halftime lead.

Alonzo Gee's 3-pointer drew the Cavs within 58-56 with 8:16 left in the third quarter.

"(The Cavs) were playing real carefree," Smith said.

But Cleveland would never be that close again even as Speights scored 12 straight points for the visitors in the fourth quarter.

Notes: Al Horford returned to start at center for Atlanta after missing two games with a stomach illness. He had 16 points and six rebounds before fouling out in the fourth quarter. . . . The only players with longer 3-ball streaks than Korver and Miller were Dana Barros (89), Michael Adams (79) and Dennis Scott (78). . . . Cavs guard Daniel Gibson was ejected with 7:07 left in the second quarter after drawing a pair of technical fouls. The first came for griping too passionately at official Brent Barnaky when he didn't get a foul call against Atlanta as he missed a shot. Then, Gibson and Atlanta's DeShawn Stevenson drew technicals in an ensuing debate about the situation. . . . . Cleveland's C.J. Miles missed the game with a sore right ankle. . . . Tristan Thompson returned to action for the Cavs despite suffering a laceration above his left eye that require three stitches.

Notebook: Hawks 102, Cavaliers 94

THE FACTS: Devin Harris was the man early and late for the Atlanta Hawks. He scored Atlanta's first seven points and added seven more in a key third-quarter run that gave the Hawks a gap on the way to a 102-94 win over the visiting Cleveland Cavaliers Monday night.

Harris finished with a season- and game-high 25 points, plus seven assists. Jeff Teague added 19 points and nine assist. Josh Smith added 18 points, 14 rebounds and eight assists. The Hawks trailed just once, for less than a minute in the early stages of the game. Atlanta (42-33) pulled within one game of Brooklyn in the race for fourth place in the East.

Kyrie Irving sat out as part of his recovery from a sprained left shoulder, C.J. Miles (ankle) was a late scratch and Daniel Gibson was ejected in the second quarter to leave Cleveland thinner than usual. Irving's sub -- Shaun Livingston -- had 14 points and six assists, Marreese Speights scored 23 points off the Cavs' bench.

QUOTABLE: "[Devin's] speed and quickness were there. It seemed like when we got into a little bit of trouble, he came up with some timely plays, whether he got to the basket, made a shot or a pass."

-- Hawks coach Larry Drew

THE STAT: +18 -- That was the Hawks' edge from 3-point territory, even though they didn't shoot it especially well. Atlanta was 9-for-30 from distance; Cleveland was 3-for-12.

TURNING POINT: The Cavs pulled within 58-56 on an Alonzo Gee trey with 8:16 left in the third quarter, but after a Hawks timeout Atlanta went on an 18-6 run fueled by Harris. He scored seven in that stretch, and the Hawks were never in much danger again.

QUOTABLE II: "If we battle like that the rest of the season, play that hard, with that type of fire . . . then we'll be OK. I've been waiting for that all season. It took longer than I wanted, bit I think that can put to rest the questions, 'Have these guys given up or quit?' I think they played as hard as they can play tonight."

-- Cavs coach Byron Scott

HOT: Harris scored 11 points in the first quarter on 3-for-5 shooting and a 5-for-5 turn from the free-throw line. . . . Speights scored 15 points in the fourth quarter, including 12 straight on 7-for-9 shooting. . . . Hawks' sub Ivan Johnson has shot 50 percent or better in six straight games. He was 3-for-5 Monday after scoring a season-high 21 in Saturday's win over Orlando. Johnson is 22-for-37 in that span.

NOT: Cleveland's Tristan Thompson had turnovers on three of the Cavs' first four possessions, and scored on the other. He also took three stitches over the left eye during the game, and returned to action. He finished with five points, six rebounds, two assists and no more turnovers in 22:55.

NOTABLE: Atlanta's Kyle Korver tied Reggie Miller for the fourth-longest streak in NBA history making at least one 3-point shot. He was 3-for-7 from afar, and has now made at least one long ball in 68 straight games. Next up on the list, No. 4 Dennis Scott (78). . . . The Cavs' plan is for Irving not to play games on back-to-back days, although that plan may be amended if his shoulder responds well in coming days. Cleveland has two more back-to-backers (April 9-10 and 14-15).

UP NEXT: For the Cavs, Wednesday vs. Brooklyn, Friday @ Boston, Sunday vs. Orlando. For the Hawks, Wednesday vs. Knicks, Friday vs. Philadelphia, Saturday @ San Antonio.
