Cleveland Cavaliers Cruise Past Oklahoma City Thunder

Both the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Cleveland Cavaliers have had the opposite for the season, with the Thunder dominating for most of the season, and the Cavaliers struggling to find any kind of rhythm, but on this match up it was the Cavaliers who looked the destructive force, winning 114-104 in Oklahoma. Thunder Coach Scott Brooks has had enough of Cavaliers' Kyrie Irving, who helped beat his West team in the recent All-Star game, and now beat his NBA team, too.

Kyrie Irving was in sensational form as he scored 31 points in total, with 14 coming in the fourth. Irving's known for his clutch ability, and finishing the game in this manner against one of the best teams has only increased this. The point guard also had nine assists, five rebounds and four steals, and was by far the difference maker.

Some are wondering were the Cavaliers that good, or were the Thunder that bad? The Thunder don't often lose at home, but they've lost three straight there since the All-Star break, which is a streak they must put an instant end too. The Cavaliers did raise their game, with several players contributing in a huge manner, Jarrett Jack scored 21 points and the newly recruited Spencer Hawes added 19.

The Cavaliers had been on their own losing streak, ending their three straight losses in fine fashion. Superstar Thunder forward Kevin Durant had 28 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists and seemingly the star never has a bad game. Russell Westbrook had 24 points, and a lot were in awe of the point guard battle put on display by him and Irving.
