The Cavaliers played hard last night and that’s why they won in LA. LeBron James led the way for the Cavs with 38 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals. He also hit 18 of 22 free throws. Anderson Varejao had another super game with 15 points and 11 rebounds. Eric Snow did a good job of running the offense with 13 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists.

The Cavs outrebounded the Jazz 49-37 last night but that didn’t matter as they fell just a tad short. Larry Hughes led the way for the Cavs with 33 points. LeBron James had a tough shooting night (9 of 25 from the floor) but he still wound up with 23 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals. Drew Gooden had a solid game in the paint with 15 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists. Anderson Varejao got a rare start last night and he was solid with 9 points and 17 rebounds.

The Cavaliers were expecting Wesley to provide decent minutes off the bench behind Larry Hughes but he’s been awful this season and now he’s buried on the bench. He has played in only 27 games this season and has averaged 11.1 minutes, 2.3 points, 1.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game. He’s also only hitting 29.7% from the floor this season which has really hurt the Cavs when he’s on the floor. Look for him to continue being buried on the bench as Sasha Pavlovic has taken over his old job.

Sure, it seems like everything is going great for the Cavs right now, but it always seems like things are going great right before they fall apart in this city. Woohoo, the Cavs beat the Heat and the Lakers recently, but we all know how it ends.

The Cavs outscored the Lakers 35-23 in the 4th quarter and they held the Lakers to 39.7% shooting from the floor for the game and that’s why they won yesterday. Sasha Pavlovic had a great game off of the bench with 21 points and 3 rebounds. LeBron James had a rough shooting night (5 of 16) but he still wound up with 18 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists. Zydrunas Ilgauskas had a very solid game too with 17 points, 7 rebounds and 3 blocked shots.

The Cavs improved to 30-21 on the season with this win. http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=270211005
