Pictured above, Sasha
Pavlovic drives the lane to score, and all 5
Lakers have a good view of it. Today the Cleveland Cavaliers played host to the
Los Angeles Lakers, and sent them on their way after posting a 99-90 victory. The
Cavs started out weakly, and were down by 7 early in the 1st period. But they would manage to come back and lead 52-41 at halftime. In the 3rd quarter, the
Lakers out scored Cleveland 26-12 and held a small lead in the early 4
th period, and things were looking bad. However, the
Cavs would out score LA 35-23 in the last period, securing the win.
Lebron James had 18 points, and 8 rebounds,
abd was not the
Cavs leading scorer. That would be
Pavlovic, who had 21 points, with 13 coming in the 4
th period. He has been doing extremely well as of late, and having the best year I've seen him play. The "wild thing" Anderson
Varejao had a great day as well with 12 points and 6 rebounds and
Illgauskus scored 17 and grabbed 7
rebounds. It was
truly a team effort win, which helped overcome would could be called a "sub par" day for James. The
Cavs are now 30-21.
Update:The
Cavs were in LA last night to complete the home/away series with the
Lakers. Cleveland won 114-108, earning their first victory in LA since 1997.
Lebron James led the team with 38 points and
Aderson Varejao had 15 points and 11 rebounds. 7 different Cavaliers threw in points, with the lowest point total for any of them being 11. It was a big win and a good way to head into the All Star break. At 31-22, the
Cavs trail Detroit by 2 games for both the division and conference lead .
