An Epic Wine & Gold Gathering

For many people, Sunday is family day. And at this past Sunday’s tremendous Wall of Honor ceremony, it was more than just a celebration of the Cavaliers organization. It was a celebration of the Cavaliers family.

In a morning ceremony before Sunday’s matchup against the Sixers – and in an emotional tribute to the quintet of Cavaliers legends at halftime – perhaps the most complete collection of the franchise’s former players gathered under one roof.

The event honored five of the Cavalier family’s most influential figures: John Johnson, the Cavaliers first-ever draft pick and All-Star; Bill Fitch, the organization’s first head coach and architect of its early success; Wayne Embry, the culture-altering general manager from 1986 to 1999; John “Hot Rod” Williams, the greatest sixth man in Cavs history; and, of course, Nick Mileti, the Wine & Gold’s visionary original owner.

Cavaliers' Love Probable for Heat; Thompson Listed as Out

The Cavaliers apparently will be replacing one important big man with another for Wednesday's game at Miami.

Starting power forward Kevin Love is probable after missing last game with a lower back contusion -- but center Tristan Thompson has been listed as out for the purpose of rest.

This is an interesting decision on Thompson, simply because the Cavs (4-9) have lost four straight. They were also manhandled inside by the New York Knicks on Monday and were often dominated by the Heat at home last week.

Cavaliers Mailbag: Talkin' Garland, Sexton, Trade Scenarios

Your Cavaliers questions and my answers in our first mailbag together on SI.com. Thanks for joining. Let's get right to it.

Question: Collin Sexton is slowly but surely improving. However, his court vision as a passer leavers a lot to be desired for a starting point guard. Is that something you see improving? - Ian Schorr

Dear Ian: You got that right. I wrote an entire column about how many of the Cavs' issues moving the ball start with Sexton. It's hard to predict if that will improve.

The good news is Sexton is only 20-years old and in his second season. There's plenty of time. Also, it is a point of emphasis for coach John Beilein in conversations with Sexton.

The Cavs want Sexton to believe that looking to pass will actually open up more scoring opportunities for himself. Right now, though, he is one of the few people on the team who can get a bucket when it's needed.

It is hard to talk him out of that mindset, because the Cavs need points. They are hoping he becomes something more than just the next Monta Ellis.
