The Cleveland Cavaliers (34-15) blitzed the New York Knicks (22-30) in their first two meetings this season, and they quelled a late comeback attempt from the Big Apple ballers to net another win on Saturday night.
In a prime-time matchup at Madison Square Garden, the Cavaliers overcame the absence of Kyrie Irving (quad soreness) and held off the Knicks, 111-104, to snag their second win in a row and fourth in their last five games.
As has been the case all year, James paced the Cavaliers in a big way.
