Overall, this was LeBron James’ game. He led the Cleveland Cavaliers to victory with an insane 46 points, including 20 in the first quarter alone. However, Kyle Korver, who finished with 12 points on 4-for-8 from deep, played excellently in his 31 minutes as well.
It wasn’t just Korver’s offensive production that mattered. His defensive with a 1:20 left to strip Myles Turner when isolated in the post could very well be the Cavs best defensive play of the game, a game in which every late-game possession mattered.
As for Korver on the offensive end, he did exactly what he was supposed to do.
