CLE (1-0) @ SAC (0-1)

Cavs 118
Kings 116

Lebron James
24 points
18 assists
10 rebounds
6 blocks

Trailed by 20+ for most of the game but outscored Sacramento 39-13 in the 4th (still can't believe it). Hit the lead for the first time with 1:30 remaining. The main change I made in the 4th was focusing hard on getting my fastest men back on defense as soon as I put a shot up. Plus Darius Miles scored 15 in the final quarter. King Lebron James was the only decent performer over the first three quarters scoring-wise. Then in the 4th Lebron picked up many of his 18 assists through feeding Miles close to the basket.

CLE (1-1) @ PHO (1-1)

Suns 127
Cavs 107

Stephon Marbury
29 points
17 assists
3 rebounds

Despite another triple-double from James the Cavs as a team never looked comfortable. Streaky shooting and very inconsistent transition defense were the main issues. I expected to at least be in this game after such a strong performance on opening night, but this is a tough schedule for the Cavs with several Western road games early.

Lebron James

This is the hardest I've ever worked in an NBA Live game. Held the Blazers to 40% shooting. Great team effort with stand-out defensive performances from Miles and Davis after Lebron picked up 4 fouls in the first half and was forced to ease off. Shot well from the foul-line for the first time this season after having major problems with the new shooting design in the first 2 games.

Nice man, this is one I will keep up with. Want to see what King James does.

Yeah, I'm very impressed with how real they made his abilities. His assists numbers so far have been awesome, and I haven't even been trying to get him his assists, it just happens without you noticing.

I like how they made his game. Only thing is that he has a horrible shot, I think his shot in real life is better.

It's not the best shot but its not the worst either. Though I haven't had any problems scoring with Lebron cos everytime I see him close to the basket I get the ball to him, then do a pro-hop and he's a great finisher once he gets in the paint.

DEN (2-3) @ CLE (2-2)

Nuggets 102
Cavs 92

Andre Miller
33 points
4 rebounds
3 assists

Frustrating game, both teams struggling with 40% shooting. Led for most of the first half but slowly lost the flow on offense and Denver began hurting me from downtown. Was out-rebounded comprehensively. Boykins and Miller did a great job of penetrating my defense and scored a lot from both inside and outside. Lebron easily won his matchup with Melo in every aspect though did struggle from the perimeter for the first time this season (2-8 treys).
