The Cleveland Cavaliers are reportedly on the verge of firing head coach Byron Scott. Per Sam Amico of Fox Sports Ohio, while the Cavs haven’t made anything public, they’re prepared to show Scott the door: Within the past few days, sources around the league have told FOX Sports Ohio that Scott is about to be [...]

What else could the Miami Heat’s Dwyane Wade, a two-time NBA champion, perennial All-Star and eventual first-ballot Hall of Famer need? A third title.
