Cleveland, OH (SportsNetwork.
J.T. Brown Lightning
Jersey .com) - LeBron James is home. It doesnt matter that he only shot
5-of-15 in his first home game in front of a raucous crowd at Quicken Loans
Arena in four years, or that he turned the ball over eight times, or even that
his Cavaliers lost. What matters, is that hes home. Carmelo Anthony spoiled
James homecoming, scoring 25 points to lead the New York Knicks past Cleveland
on Thursday, 95-90. James long anticipated return to Cleveland didnt go quite
according to plan, but there are 81 more regular season games to go for the
new-look Cavs to sort things out. Kevin Love, acquired in a blockbuster deal
from the Timberwolves, had 19 points and 14 rebounds in his first action in a
Cleveland uniform, while returning star Kyrie Irving led the way with 22 points
and seven assists. The four-time MVP James famously left his hometown for the
Miami Heat following the 2009-10 season. He led Miami to four straight
championship appearances, winning two, before signing with Cleveland this
offseason. It was a huge night, said James. It was exciting for the fans,
exciting for the city. Now we can just play regular basketball. James finished
with 17 points, five rebounds and four assists in the setback. The Cavs are 2-6
in season openers with him in the lineup. My turnovers, some of them were
careless and some of them were chemistry. Im throwing passes where I was hoping
some of my teammates would be. After leading 67-64 through three quarters, the
Knicks used a 10-1 run midway through the fourth to create a nine-point cushion.
Anthony capped the surge with a 3-pointer, and the lead was 80-71. With 2:20 to
play, Love hit a 3-ball from the left wing to pull the Cavs within five.
Cleveland then forced a 24-second violation and Irving hit a circus layup. Love
could have tied it with another 3 from the left wing on the next possession, but
hit the front rim. At the other end, J.R. Smith got a floater to fall to give
the Knicks some breathing room with 48 seconds to play. Anthony followed a James
layup with a difficult baseline jumper with 25.9 left, and Irvings 3-ball at the
other end spun around the rim and fell out. Jason Smith secured the rebound, and
the game for the Knicks. They showed a high level of trust and confidence in
each other, said new Knicks head coach Derek Fisher. They showed a lot of
patience and composure, and those are the types of things we need as we move
through this season. Earlier, Love carved out space underneath for an open layup
on Clevelands first possession of the game, entering the scoring column just 13
seconds in. Anthony then scored six straight points at the other end around a
pair of James missed jumpers. James first field goal of his return came at 6:30
of the first on a trademark outlet pass from Love. James absorbed a foul from
Anthony in transition and muscled in a layup but missed the ensuing free throw
out of a timeout. His layup was part of a 14-2 Cavs run that Shane Larkin
finally ended with a pull-up jumper seven minutes in. Cleveland assisted on nine
of its 10 field goals in the first quarter and led 25-18 after one. The lead
reached 11, but New York clawed to within three midway through the second after
Quincy Acys layup and tied it late in the period on J.R. Smiths 3-pointer. It
was 42-42 with time winding down in the half when Irving threw an alley-oop to
Tristan Thompson just before the buzzer sounded. James finished the opening half
1-for-9 from the floor with four turnovers, but Cleveland led 44-42. The Knicks
were the hot team out of the break, opening the third quarter on a 9-2 run to go
in front, 51-46. They never trailed after that. Game Notes This was the first
game of James career that he had at least eight turnovers, fewer than 20 points
and fewer than five assists ... James and Irving both logged more than 43
minutes of playing time ... New Yorks bench outscored Clevelands, 41-12 ...
Jason Smith and Iman Shumpert both scored 12 for the Knicks ... Prior to the
game, the Knicks announced that point guard Jose Calderon would miss 2-to-3
weeks with a strained right calf.

Lightning Jersey. Rose can take this one-game job because the Bluefish are
not affiliated with any major league team. He has occasionally appeared at
official events since his ban, with MLBs permission. The Bluefish will host the
Lancaster Barnstormers in Roses game. The team says the Atlantic League is all
about giving people second chances.
