NBA

Regular Season Round 8: Cleveland C. - Brooklyn N. 98-82

Date: January 1, 2012
Kyrie Irving grew up rooting for the New Jersey Nets. On Sunday night, he helped the Cleveland Cavaliers send his former favorite team to a loss. Irving scored 13 points and started Cleveland's barrage of 16 3-pointers, leading the Cavaliers to a 93-82 win over the Nets. "I even was up in the cheap seats for the (2003) NBA Finals with my dad and sister," he said. "I'm in Cleveland now, so me being a Nets fan is kind of out the window. It's a great win for our team." Antawn Jamison scored 23 points and Cleveland made 16 of 26 shots from 3-point range, falling one short of the team record for 3s in a game. The Cavaliers made 17 3-pointers in the 2008 and '09 seasons. Irving, the No. 1 pick in the draft, hit back-to-back 3-pointers early in the third period to start Cleveland's run that took control of the game. The Cavaliers pulled away in the fourth quarter and the team Irving used to root for is winless in four games since an opening night victory. Deron Williams led New Jersey with 16 points. The Nets lost despite having all five starters score in double figures. *Courtesy of www.star-telegram.com
