The Cleveland Cavaliers are close to a sweep in this Eastern Conference Finals, leading the Hawks 3-0 in the series. The Cavaliers were without Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving, but wound up winning 114-111.

Kyrie Irving sat out with left knee tendinitis; he is necessary for scoring

This victory was all thanks to LeBron James. He shot 37% (14-of-37), but he still put up an insane stat line. James had 37 points, 18 rebounds, and 13 assists. He battled injury and cramping throughout the game, but stayed tough out there.
