LeBron scores 41 points for the 3rd time in 4 nights!
Cavs win their 5th straight. This matches their longest win streak last year when they did it once in January.
The Cavs are now 6-2 and stand alone atop of the Central Division.
Next up: Denver @ Cleveland, 8pm on TNT, Thursday Night
Watched a segment on ESPN about Childress yesterday. Most of his games are played in "arenas" that were smaller than gyms I played in when I was in high school. Yeah, Kobe and Lebron can't wait to play there
I might as well say it- LeBron has FAR surpassed Carmelo, and thay LeBron/Melo hype- King James is obviously the winner in this debate.
Nope....as much I like LeBron MORE than Kobe. Sorry, I disagree there. All you had to do was look at the Olympics as a perfect example....the MAIN MAN they counted on was Kobe...period.
In the interest of full disclosure, I do admit that I like LeBron as a person so much more than Kobe (who I can't stand)!!!
Of course, I'd be crazy not to take either one on my team!
And the scary part is LeBron is still just 23 years old! If he stays healthy and when all is said and done, it may end up being Michael Jordon we're comparing him to and not Kobe.
I think the NBA is a lot better when the Lakers and Celtics are relevant/threats to win the title.
I once said the NBA's not so fantastic when the Spurs are so mighty.

Good news for Portland: Greg Oden says he's ready to play a full game tonight.
I'm looking forward to see Oden, so my remote will be busy between Hawks-Celtics, Bruins-Blackhawks and Blazers-Heat.
Tell you what, this Hawks-Celtics game tonight, has the intensity of a playoff game!
For the first time in MANY years, I don't feel like the Eastern Conference has to take a backseat to the West. The East is loaded with good teams this year: Boston, Cleveland, Detroit, Atlanta, Philly (despite their slow start), Orlando, Toronto, Miami are all formidable. Even New York, Milwaukee, Chicago and Indiana seem to be much improved this year.
