Cavs Match Franchise Win Record


The Cavaliers matched a franchise record with their 57th win Sunday night with a 96-88 victory over the New Jersey Nets (also accomplished in 1988-89 and 1991-92). The win was also Cleveland's 25th on the road this season, expanding a franchise record. LeBron James poured in 30 points, grabbed in 11 rebounds, and dished out 8 assists as the Cavs won their ninth consecutive game. This win puts Cleveland at 12-1 so far in the month of March. Ilgauskas added 18 points, he had four blocks and passed John "Hot Rod" Williams (1,200) as the Cavs' career leader with 1,202. He has already became the franchise rebounding leader earlier in the season. The Cavs play the Nets again on Wednesday night and can become the all-time winning Cleveland Cavalier team with a victory.
