Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Chicago Bulls Live Stream

The National Basketball Association superstar, who went from high school to the pros, and first lady are hosting thousands of children and their parents at the school.

The Bulls seem to be using that philosophy as well, with point guard Derrick Rose’s health always an issue and often testy center Joakim Noah accepting the possibility of coming off the bench this season.

Nikola Mirotic scored 19 points and grabbed nine rebounds, and the Chicago Bulls held on for a 97-95 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday in the season opener for both teams.

“It’s not even fair to say what we’ll look like the first game of the season, because it’s not what we’ll look like in January, February or even March”, James said to USA TODAY Sports.

“I played in front of him in DC, on the Olympic team we played Brazil here in America (in 2012) and he was able to grace that game”, James said. “I’ll be active tomorrow”. After a miss by Rose with 10 seconds remaining, a driving James got swatted by Gasol. The four-time MVP took a few contact Sunday and said the big test would be how he responded after the workout.

The Bulls were in control for nearly the entire game, taking advantage of the Cavaliers’ shaky start.

And now, as he embarks on his 13th pro season, James, just two months shy of turning 31, understands getting back to the Finals will not come easy for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Though Hoiberg managed to keep two of his starters, Snell and Mirotic, under 30 minutes, Butler finished the night with almost 37, majority on James.

It should come as no surprise, Williams averaged 17 points and 6 assists in 27 games after being traded to the Hornets last season. “We forget the role that Muhammad Ali, Arthur Ashe and Bill Russell played in raising consciousness”.

There was more than the usual excitement for opening night. In February 2009, he sat courtside, beer in hand, to watch the Bulls take on the Washington Wizards in D.C. “There’s a lot of questions about my health and about my durability and things like that over the last couple weeks”, James told reporters. It’s just one of 82. Derrick Rose also insists he’ll be good to go. “Then, from there, you can gauge how much growth we will need in order for us to be the team that we want to be”.

Still out, though, is starting point guard Kyrie Irving, as he continues to recover from the surgery he underwent on a broken kneecap. And when Kyrie Irving’s knee injury proved more serious than initially expected, he got thrust back into a starting job – again helping James lead the offense. “I am happy the Bulls are in the East because the West is stacked with Golden State, San Antonio, Houston and Oklahoma City”. I just got back on the court but if I could play in all 82 [games] that would be great.
