Cleveland Cavaliers News: LeBron Continues to Dominate, Is Cleveland Going to the Playoffs?
The Cleveland Cavaliers continue to dominate in the remaining weeks of the NBA 2014-15 season.
After a bland start at the season, the Cavs have definitely turned things around in the past month, winning eight of their last 10 games, with the surging Bulls its most recent victim.
In that game over Chicago on Sunday night, Cleveland drained 16 three-pointers, keeping their Central Division rivals at bay, for a 99-94 win. LeBron James posted 20 points, 12 assists and 10 boards – his first triple-double after returning to Cleveland. Meanwhile, Kyrie Irving and J.R. Smith had 27 and 24 points respectively.
Meanwhile, it was Dunleavy who kept the Bulls within striking distance, scoring 24 markers, while Aaron Brooks added 17.
The Cavs' win against the Bulls could be a sign of things to come, especially that fans of both ball clubs are predicting a possible clash in the Conference Finals.
However, for Sunday's game, both squads are still missing the services of their entire offensive arsenal – Kevin Love only had 11 points while Pau Gasol just scored 12.
The Bulls are expecting Derrick Rose to make a comeback by the end of the season, more than a month after he underwent another knee injury on Feb. 27.
As for LeBron and company, they are now the hottest team in the league, winning 31 of their last 38 games since Jan. 15.
