The trio of Kyrie Irving, LeBron James and Kevin Love proved to be too much for the Boston Celtics Sunday as the Cleveland Cavaliers picked up a 113-100 victory in Game 1 of their NBA Playoff series.
Irving had 30 points, James 20 and Love added 19 points as the host Cavaliers also outrebounded Boston 46-34.
Game 2 is in Quicken Loans Arena and the Celtics are hoping to avoid getting into a 2-0 hole before the series goes to Boston.
The game tips at 7 p.m. will be televised by TNT.
