Still King In Cleveland

The Cavaliers never had a chance.

The Heat showed no mercy on the Cavs as LeBron James, booed loudly every time he touched the ball by fans who haven’t forgiven him for leaving two years ago, scored 16 in the third quarter when the Heat opened a 34-point lead. James added four dunks, three 3-pointers, five rebounds, five assists and rested the entire fourth quarter.

Dwyane Wade added 22 and the Miami Heat won their fifth straight— all on the road—by destroying the Cavaliers 111-87.

Playing their best ball of the season, the Heat also won three games in three nights during the trip, becoming the first team since the 1979-80 Phoenix Suns to accomplish that three-peat. And with Tuesday’s 15-point win at Indiana, the Heat also became the first team since Milwaukee in 1970 to win three consecutive road games by 10 points or more.
