LeBron, Cavs follow White House with win, 105-94 at Wizards

Frye was 7 of 15 from the field, including 6 of 12 on 3-pointers. It’s going to come once the season gets going.

James finished with 27 points and pulled down 10 rebounds in the 105-94 victory over the Wizards – and got a post-game celebratory dousing with water by his teammates.

Having James is certainly a great security blanket, but if Irving would happen to go down for a decent period of time, it would be asking a lot for the Akron native to spend the majority of his time at the point.

“I think in the second quarter we didn’t do a great job when we were up by seven”, said Wall. “That’s the past. We’ve got to live in the present and [figure out] how we can make the future better”.

Washington played without starting guard Bradley Beal (hamstring).

“We’re an experienced team at this point”, DeRozan said.

The Cavs hit 14 three-pointers in the 100-93 win over Charlotte, becoming the first team in history to hit 10 or more threes in the opening nine games of the regular season. There was many times tonight they had five three-point shooters on the floor. Frank Kaminsky only scored three points, and Spencer Hawes, who played the most minutes of them all, struggled to matchup to the opposing bigs. The Hornets led 72-71 entering the final quarter when Shumpert and Frye made three-pointers to give the Cavs the lead.

Soon enough, a pair of free throws by Smith capped a half-ending 11-4 run that put Cleveland up 58-56 at the break, its first lead since 8-7 about 3 minutes into the game.

Frye is averaging 11.6 points and shooting a ridiculous 49 percent from 3-point range (21-of-43) in seven games – missing two this year because of the death of his mother.

On Friday night, Iman Shumpert completely locked down John Wall in the second half, holding him to just five points after intermission.

The young head coach knows the role that this plays for his team and has warned that they are capable of getting better. Once again, they are off to a fiery start, and are resembling the same team that went the distance previous year. In the second quarter, Spencer Hawes – yes, Spencer Hawes – blew by a flat-footed James on his way to the hoop. The 12-year veteran – who tortured the Raptors from long-range in last year’s ECF – has tallied double figures in five of his last six games, going 19-for-38 from long-distance during that stretch. Smith was called for a Flagrant-1 foul in third quarter.

Walker sat in front of his locker for more than 20 minutes after the game. We just want to continue to challenge each other on a day-to-day basis and see how far our ceiling can go, how far our elevator can go. She took us to the basketball court.

Lue is trying to do something with the Cavs that Rivers has never done with his teams: win a repeat championship. “It’s an exciting time”. LeBron has also expressed support for San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick and his national anthem protests.

As of now, LBJ is averaging 22.9 points, and that would be the lowest since his rookie season.

Hornets: Visit Minnesota on Tuesday. They also ranked eighth in the league in three-point percentage at 36.4%, much higher numbers than the Wizards’ 20.0 attempts per game and 32.1% three-point accuracy.
