Thurmond fuels Cavaliers push for first playoff berth
Nate Thurmond, 34, says Cavaliers chase of a first playoff berth feels different after 13 NBA seasons. The veteran center, traded from Chicago for two players on Thanksgiving, has helped Cleveland surge to 36-17 since his arrival. A 20,784 crowd marked a high in a 95-92 win over Washington as Cleveland nears a potential opening-round clash with either the Bullets or Braves. The Cavs trail Washington by 1½ games with 12 remaining while averaging 12,400 per game at home and drawing six sellouts since Thurmond joined.
