CLEVELAND: Everything about the game seemed totally reversed, totally different, and it wasn’t just the return of Kevin Love or LeBron James going back to the headband.
In a matter of minutes Wednesday night at Quicken Loans Arena, the Cavaliers righted all the wrongs of their Game 1 loss to the Chicago Bulls in the Eastern Conference semifinals. They even flipped their disastrous start by grabbing a 13-2 lead, the same deficit they’d faced two nights prior.
LeBron James flipped the switch from passive facilitator to aggressor, pitching in 14 first-quarter points.
