LBJ hits 25,000 in Cavaliers win!

LeBron James hit 25,000 points for his career in leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 107-100 win over the Philadelphia 76ers in Philly.
James finished one rebound short of a triple double in scoring 22 points.
Mo Williams added 21 points among five Cavaliers in double digit scoring in the victory.
Cleveland begins a four game home stand on Wednesday against the New York Knicks..

Swashbucklings

1) This game wasn't all easy.
A bad first period had Cleveland behind by as much as 15 points in the first half and against the second unit,the Sixers cut the score to as close as six with under a minute to go.
Still some edges to be sanded down....

2) LeBron James is the youngest player (30) to ever to hit 25,000 points.
Much of that is the four years that he was able to play from 18-22 that so many players from the past spent in college,but those four years,much like Kobe Bryant,might be the difference in being the top scorer ever with good health.

3) Philadelphia fans aren't usually known for their good manners,but give them credit last night for giving James a standing ovation.
Very classy...

4) Nice game from Matthew Dellavedova with 12 points,9 assists and some pretty passes near the rim to LeBron James.
Hard to believe that this team is so talented that Dellavedova will be the third string point guard when Kyrie Irving returns,...

5) J.R.Smith left the game with a knee injury.
An MRI is scheduled for today.
If Smith misses time,Jared Cunningham should be the player that watches his playing time rise....
