The Cavaliers pulled out a hard fought victory last night versus the Golden State Warriors. In a game with numerous lead changes, LeBron James completed the final lead change with his first career buzzer-beating game winner. Cleveland left Oakland with a 106-105 victory, a 33-8 overall record, a 13-8 road record, and a 2-1 record thus far on this West Coast trip.
A couple encouraging signs for the Cavs occurred in the 2nd quarter. First, the Cavaliers rebounded from a double-digit deficit to close the 1st half ahead by a point, 55-54. They very well could have fallen out of the game early in this West Coast road game. Instead, they hung tough and found themselves back in the game. Second, Tarence Kinsey came in off the bench and put together a team-rallying second quarter. He finished the game with 11 points and 3 rebounds in 14 minutes, showing a good all-around ability on the court. People should keep an eye on Kinsey, who has the potential to be a 'poor man's' James Posey with his combination of defense, fastbreak running, jumpshooting, and quickness.
