Cleveland Cavaliers head coach JB Bickerstaff thought that defeating the Orlando Magic in the First Round was a difficult task/moment of growth.

(via Cleveland Cavaliers):

“I consider this season an improvement. To win a round as you gone where we started, and continuing to build from the ground up. To win a round in the playoffs isn’t easy. I thought we faced a tough challenge in that First Round, obviously. Then to be able to go seven games and win it in a Game Seven showed a ton of growth. I think the play of our guys continued to show their growth. So, I think this year was an improvement for us. You guys will judge what success looks like, but for us, I think we accomplished what we were trying to accomplish, but coming up short of a goal of obviously winning a championship.”
