And you can just go on and on about how good LeBron James was tonight.

In a nutshell, the Cavs rode LeBron James' fiery shooting in first quarter to win the game. The home side led by as many as 18 points in the first 12 minutes of the tie. Since then though, it was a full on comeback effort by Indiana who won all the remaining three quarters. In the end however, Cavs held on to win by 3 points, so credit to them.
