Cleveland Cavaliers, Lebron James | featured news

Michael Jordan no longer has the most famous buzzer-beater in Cleveland sports history. The Shot has been topped. LeBron James made one better. James dropped a 3-pointer from the top of the key over Orlando's Hedo Turkoglu as the final horn sounded Friday night to give the Cavaliers, their season a heartbeat from major trouble, a 96-95 victory over the Magic that evened the Eastern Conference finals at one game apiece.

The Magic rallied from way down and withstood 49 from LeBron to hand the Cavs their first playoff loss in Game 1 of the East finals.

Unstoppable at both ends of the floor this season, Cleveland superstar LeBron James is the NBA’s Most Valuable Player.

LeBron James had 36 points, 13 rebounds and eight assists to lead the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 99-78 victory over the Detroit Pistons on Sunday, sweeping the Eastern Conference first-round series.

The Detroit Pistons couldn't contain LeBron James again. And this time, they didn't stop his teammates until it was too late.

With LeBron James, All-Star guard Mo Williams and other regulars resting for the playoffs, Cleveland lost for just the second time on their home floor this season, 111-110 in overtime Wednesday night to the Philadelphia 76ers.

All-Stars LeBron James and Mo Williams and veterans Zydrunas Ilgauskas and Joe Smith will not play Wednesday night against Philadelphia to rest for the playoffs, despite Cleveland attempting to match the NBA record of 40 home wins in one season.

Mo Williams scored 24 points, LeBron James added 22 and the Cleveland Cavaliers
rolled to their eighth straight win, 102-96 over the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday.

There was a dramatic shot, a questionable call -- or two -- in the closing seconds and a frenzied crowd.

LeBron James might be mortal after all. At least against the Celtics. Boston frustrates LeBron once again, limiting him to 21 points on 5-of-15 shooting in beating the East-leading Cavaliers 105-94. Ken Berger says if LeBron can't find any answers vs. the C's defense, the Cavs are in trouble.
