LeBron James (23) of the Cleveland Cavaliers goes for the lay up during the game against the Indiana Pacers |
In their final game before Sunday's 66th NBA All-Star Game, the Cavaliers won their third game in a row and seventh in eight starts to stand 39-16 and atop the Eastern Conference. At 7-1 in February, the Cavs matched their win total from a 7-8 January.
"We've played some good ball," James said. "Obviously we know January wasn't such a good month for us, but overall, for the season, we're in a good place."
Korver came off the bench to become only the seventh NBA player with 2,000 career 3-point baskets. He made 6-of-8 3-point shots, netting 13 points in the fourth quarter.
"It means something to me for sure," Korver said. "I've always taken a lot of pride in shooting and studying it and thinking about it and trying to be better, and obviously I'm working on it every day."
Klay Thompson scored 35 points and Kevin Durant added 21 as the Golden State improved the NBA's best record to 47-9 by routing visiting Sacramento 109-86.
San Antonio, with the second-best record in the NBA behind Golden State, never trailed in routing host Orlando 107-79 behind 23 points from LaMarcus Aldridge and 22 by Kawhi Leonard.
Boston's Isaiah Thomas scored 33 points, matching John Havlicek's 45-year-old Celtics record with a 40th consecutive 20-point game, to spark the hosts to their fourth win in a row, a 116-108 victory over Philadelphia.
