LeBron James joins exclusive list as the Cleveland Cavaliers march on

LeBron James had 25 points and 13 rebounds, extending his personal run of dominance against the Charlotte Hornets by leading the Cavaliers to a 95-90 victory Friday night.

James joined Robertson on an exclusive list and Kevin Love scored a season-high 34 points as the Cleveland Cavaliers remained unbeaten at home with a 117-103 win over Orlando. For anyone though, it would be considered a good game, even a great game. Tyler Johnson scored 12, and Hassan Whiteside had 11 points and 11 rebounds. The Hornets are 4-1 on this seven-game homestand. “I thought nearly every 3-point shot that we took tonight came as a result of good ball movement, good execution, guys making the right decision when to take the shot”.

Timberwolves 100, 76ers 95: Andrew Wiggins scored 17 of his 32 points in the fourth quarter to help Minnesota keep Philadelphia winless. Orlando have dropped 11 straight to Cleveland. Kemba Walker led the team with 18 points, four rebounds and four assists.

Miami eventually led by as much as 26, both their biggest advantage and the Knicks’ biggest deficit so far this season. According to the Akron Beacon Journal, Irving beat James in a one on one game, and it was not close.

Before the media was granted postgame locker room access, the players addressed a lack of toughness, heart and defensive awareness displayed in the fourth quarter Wednesday. “Tristan is a big part of that run we want to make”. Al Jefferson and Jeremy Lamb each finished with 11 points. “I think in the National Football League, when you talk about great quarterbacks, they don’t really compare great quarterbacks”. With no way to collapse the variables of era, team, luck, and so many other forces affecting individual greatness, we will never find a hard answer on who is the superior between two similar players. Yes, it’s important to establish habits in November that you can fall back on in June and, yes, this team can’t be strolling around the Eastern seaboard like defending world champs, but the Cavs can’t get too frustrated at things like this – “things like this” that come this early. For the game, they shot 41.3 percent from the field (33 of 80), including 20 percent from 3-point range (5 of 25). G Matthew Dellavedova also returned after missing one game with a calf injury…. The Hornets have now lost their last 23 games against James. With the win, Charlotte improves to 9-6 on the season and a dominant 7-1 at home.

Last week, LeBron James passed the great Jerry West on the NBA’s all-time scoring list. He needs six points to pass Reggie Miller for 18th all-time.

It marked a welcome return to normality for James, who was forced to apologize to teammates on Saturday after bizarrely storming off the court during the Cavaliers’ victory over the Atlanta Hawks.

Next UpThe Hornets will take on the Milwaukee Bucks at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 29 in Charlotte.
