The L.A Lakers running on all cylinders early in the 1st half behind the likes of Pau Gasol, Jodie Meeks, and Nick Young. Before the night was over though it would be the Cavs newest member and former Bulls Star Luol Deng playing "Big" in Staples Team 16 Chips Set-Up as he plays "Show and Tell".

After a 63-57 lead at the break the Cavs go East Coast Style as they put the Orange in Cavs Point God  "Kyrie for Mayor" and Luol Deng finds his mark from the Arc. The Cavs go on a 18-6 run to start the  3rd frame behind Luol's two Money Ball's and some inside work from Cavs Bigs Anderson Varejao and Tristan Thompson. The Cavs end the 3rd up 88-85 as Lakers Bigs Ryan Kelly and Chris Kaman stake their claim in the game only Deng and this time Dion Waiters to make their run. In the end it was the Lakers Inability to make a Shot late that puts them in the loss column.

Deng leads the Cavs with 27 points (5/5 3pt FG) while Tristan Thompson (15 pts 13 rebs) and Anderson Varejao (18 pts 18 rebs) come up big ion the paint for the C-Town. Dion Waiters added 17 while Kyrie Irving nets 13 as the Cavs move to 14-24.

The Lakers get a game-high 28 points from Nick Young, 26 points from Jodie Meeks, and 20 and twelve boards from Pau Gasol. Lakers PG Kendall Marshall @kbutta5 continues his solid play at the Point with 10 points and 16 assists. The Purple and Gold shot the Orange well they just could not get Stops when they needed to as the Drew League broke out early in this one.
