LeBron, Love lead Cavaliers past Clippers, 115-102

According to Cleveland.com (and then verified by ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith), here’s what Kevin Love had to say, “This isn’t to say that James was stellar Monday against the Warriors“.

According to oddsmakers from online sports book RealBet.eu, the Cavaliers are now a 6.5-point home favorite for tonight’s game against the Clippers.

The Cleveland Cavaliers will be looking to reassure themselves that they are still in strong form when they host the red hot Los Angeles Clippers at the Quicken Loans Arena, minus Blake Griffin.

Despite suffering a 132-98 loss to the Golden State Warriors on Monday night, the Cleveland Cavaliers have won 10 of their last 12 games, including Wednesday’s 91-78 performance over the Brooklyn Nets at Barclays Center.

Yet after tough losses to the Spurs and Warriors this week, it was the offense that wielded more questions than the defense did at this point in the season.

Now Kevin Love is a fantastic player who will be a key piece to a potential championship for the Cavs, but this comment shouldn’t have been made, particularly after the game he had.

“It shows us how far we’ve got to go. It’s not about who we were playing”, said Joe Johnson, who was matched against James and scored only three points. “We have to continue to get better”. Lopez is still pretty good, as he scored 16 points and pulled down 10 boards. As I’ve said on recent radio spots, I’m a big proponent of Blatt finding a way to get more out of Mo. “… That does concern me”.

Kyrie Irving told reporters that Cleveland needed to “make a statement” against the Warriors and the team did just that, though not the statement it planned on making. Brown is trying to settle the point guard spot and journeyman Donald Sloan is getting the latest chance with the starting unit and averaging nine assists in the last three games.

The last thing the Nets (11-31) need to see right now is the best team in the East with a chip on its shoulder. Redick. Paul ended the game with 30 points while Redick continued his good run with a 17 point game and shot 50 percent from the field. The five-time All-Star, though, is traveling with the club on this five-game trip.

“It seems like the same old story”, interim coach Tony Brown said. We don’t shoot the ball well sometimes, but we get by on our talent. Instead, Joe finished with three points on 1-of-7 shooting.

Since scoring just 3 points against Golden State, Love has been a different player, scoring 35 points with 34 rebounds in the past two games.

The Nets have lost 11 of 12 at home, while the Cavs have won seven of eight on the road.
