The Cavaliers needed a big game from their best player to avoid falling into an 0-2 hole to the Chicago Bulls.
And he delivered.
LeBron James scored 33 points and grabbed 8 rebounds to lead the top-seeded Cavs to a 106-91 home win Wednesday to even the Eastern Conference semifinal series at 1 game apiece.
The series shifts to Chicago Friday night for Game 3. Tip time is scheduled for 8 p.m. Eastern and the game will be televised by ESPN.
On the play-by-play is Mike Breen, who will be joined by analysts Mark Jackson and Jeff Van Gundy.
