Along with the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Cleveland Cavaliers are the hottest team in basketball. Winning 8 of their last 10 games, and enjoying a 3-game winning streak. Good for third in the Eastern Conference currently. Entering Thursday night’s tilt against the Golden State Warriors, critics would argue the Cavs have beat up on lesser Eastern Conference competition. The gauntlet was set and a true test laid ahead as Cleveland hosted at the Quicken Loans Arena.
From the onset and from tip-off, it was clear Cavaliers star LeBron James appeared more motivated than he’s been at any other point in the season. Let’s face it, the Cavs have endured a roller coaster first season under head coach David Blatt. Many questioning his lack of NBA experience. Others wondering if forward Kevin Love was truly a good fit compatible with James and point guard Kyrie Irving.
All would be forgotten Thursday night as the Cavaliers systemically dismantled the visiting Warriors forcing Golden State head coach Steve Kerr into numerous moments of frustration. First, it is painfully evident that the All-Star break served as much needed rest for LeBron James’ body. James had suffered back and knee injuries throughout the course of the season. The break allowed LeBron to recuperate and he appeared visibly fresh.
Secondly, national television. The game was broadcasted on TNT and with only two games on the NBA slate Thursday night, all eyes were on LeBron, largely perceived as the best player in the world despite murmurs of his physical decline. Also, at 44-10, not only are the Warriors the best team in the Western Conference but they also own the best record in the entire league. Statement game for LeBron and the Cavaliers to make the point that Cleveland is for real as a championship contender. Rough days behind and pure smooth sailing with the additions of Iman Shumpert, J.R. Smith, and Timofey Mozgov.
So what made James so successful on his way to a season-high 42 points and decisive 11-point victory? He started fast, established tempo and assertiveness from the start of the game. It didn’t matter who Kerr threw at LeBron defensively. Draymond Green, Harrison Barnes, Klay Thompson, or Andre Iguodala. LeBron would not be denied by petty defensive assignments.
From the beginning, James abandoned the jump shot and went into attack mode, getting into the paint at will, finishing with both hands. More importantly, playing a bully brand of basketball. Posting up opposing defenders and backing them down with brute strength and will. In addition, James did well to earn free trips to the line, easily drawing contact on numerous occasions.
