NBA
Cavs back in Finals for round three with Warriors
By KYLE HIGHTOWER
AP Sports Writer
East Finals - Game 7
BOSTON — LeBron
James scored 35 points and
passed Michael Jordan to
become the NBA’s all-time
playoff scoring leader as the
Cleveland Cavaliers beat
the Boston Celtics 135-102
on Thursday night to claim
their third straight Eastern
Conference title and a return
trip to the NBA Finals.
Kyrie Irving added 24
points and Kevin Love
finished with 15 for the
Cavs, who never trailed
and led by as many as 39
points in one of their most
dominating wins of the
series. The Cavs set an NBA
record by winning their 13th
consecutive series closeout
opportunity.
Cleveland’s 4-1 series’
win gives it a 12-1 record

this postseason and sets up
a third consecutive matchup
with Western Conference
champion Golden State, the
team it beat in the Finals last
season to claim the fran-
chise’s first championship.
It will mark the seventh
straight trip to the Finals for
James.
“This team is a crazy
team. They just stayed
resilient all year, got to
the playoffs, and we really
stepped our game up,” Cavs
coach Tyronn Lue said.
“Now we can start focusing
on Golden State to get
ready. As of tonight, I’ll get

started.”
Avery
Bradley
led
Boston with 23 points.
The Cavaliers basically
conceded the East’s top seed
to the Celtics at the end of
the regular season by opting
to rest its starters in advance
of the playoffs. But they
displayed their superiority
over the final two games to
wrap up the series.
After
allowing
the
Celtics to seize the early
momentum in Game 4, the
Cavs barely gave them the
chance in Game 5.
Led by its Big Three,
Cleveland quickly built a
21-point lead in the first
quarter, while getting lots
of contributions from their
teammates.
Love
continued
to
knock down shots from
the outside, Irving sliced
his way into the lane to the
rim and James got free for
several of his one-handed,
tomahawk dunks.
It was a very welcomed
sight in Irving’s case, after
he rolled his left ankle in the
third quarter of Cleveland’s
Game 4 win. He showed no
signs of lingering issues,
though, beating several
defenders off the dribble and
handing out seven assists.
Meanwhile, J.R. Smith
and Kyle Korver all
helped spread out Boston’s
defenders by connecting on
several wide-open scoring
opportunities.
Deron Williams, who
had been quiet for most of
the series, also got in on
the act with a series-best 14
points for Cleveland.
The Celtics did their best
to keep up, but the consis-
tent outside shooting, bench
scoring and defense they
relied on to stun Cleveland
in Game 3 wasn’t there
Thursday night.
“I thought we played
a little too haphazard
tonight,” Celtics coach
Brad Stevens said. “Our
offensive mistakes led to
bad defense, and it just kind
of snowballed on us.”
