The Cleveland Cavaliers won their sixth game in a row 105-91 by avenging a loss to the Toronto Raptors in Toronto.
LeBron James scored 24 points and dished off for 13 assists while Tristan Thompson and Kevin Love each notched a double double in points and rebounds,
The now 11-7 Cavaliers visit Brooklyn on Monday.
Swashbucklings
1) The Cavaliers have not lost since that debacle against the Raptors and even though these six wins have had their erratic moments,I can see the signs of how strong this team could be.
They still need a few parts,but things are starting to mesh and even if it isn't always for 48 minutes...
2) Tristan Thompson showed off what he is capable of with his 21 points and 14 boards.
Thompson is never going to be an all-star,but he is very capable of being the best off the bench big man in the league..
3) James Jones rarely plays,but he got a few minutes off the bench late in the first half and delivered
two long three pointers.
Jones fits "Boobie Gibson" role that might disappear for long stretches of the regular season,but could be huge in playoff time..
4) LeBron James is usually pretty great,but last night,he was dazzling with the passing of the basketball.
Some of the James passes were astounding and showed why I've always thought of him as more Magic Johnson than Michael Jordan,..
5) Mike Miller missed the game with a concussion and will have to go through the leagues concussion protocol.
Miller was just beginning to get more playing time,so this was a bad time for Miller to have a problem....
