CLEVELAND, OH-The Cavs were forced to play at a slow pace more suitable to the winter weather outside as they fall to the Philadelphia 76ers 108-97.
The Sixers earned this victory as they snapped a 11 game losing streak against Cleveland in a wire-to-wire game. The Cavs only shot 41 percent from the field and a dismal 28 percent from downtown.
The night didn't start well for the Cavs as JR Smith was suspended for one game before the game for conduct detrimental to the team at today's shootaround. Smith will return this Saturday against Denver.
LeBron led all scorers with 30 points along with 9 rebounds and 8 assists. Nance, Hood, and Clarkson were the other double-digit scorers for the Cavs with 13, 11, and 10 points respectively. JJ Redick led the Sixers with 22 points while the rest of their starters all had double-digit scoring.
