The Cleveland Cavaliers ride All-Star Guard Kyrie Irving for a career-high 57 points for a 128-125 win over the San Antonio Spurs near the Riverwalk. Kyrie's 46 points in regulation was capped by two money balls including the game-tying money ball to send the game into extras!

From the the Cavs outscore the Spurs 18-15 in the extra period as Kyrie puts in 11 of the Cavs eighteen in the extra period. San Antonio just didn't close out the Cavs or shall I say close down Kyrie late and they paid for it. They say in the Logo," When the greats are going just do the best you can to make it difficult for them"!    

That extra period was a microcosm of what Kyrie and LeBron can do to teams when they are both going and here comes mid-April. LeBron added 31 points and seven helpers with Tristan Thompson going 12 points and nine boards. Believeland's 14 for 26 from deep put pressure on the Spurs all game long.

San Antonio was led by Tony Parker's 31 points and six helper with both Danny Green and Kawhi Leonard adding 24 points. Spurs shot nearly 57% from the field as Tim Duncan nearly notched a triple-double with 18 points and eleven boards with eight assists.

Cleveland stay in first in the NBA Central moving to 42-25. The Spurs six-game win streak is snapped as they fall to 40-25 as they have been playing their best basketball of the 2014-15 season.
