LeBron James sat out last night's game against San Antonio at The Q, as Mike Brown gave his star one more game of rest, with three days off to follow, as the team gets ready for the stretch run. The Cavs did not need him to pull off the win, over an undermanned Spurs team, by the score of 97-95. The Cavs were without there top two players in James and Shaquille O'Neal, and even lost forward Antwen Jamison early in the 3rd quarter with a stiff left knee, but had enough to overcome the Spurs.

Hickson had given the Cavs the lead with two free throws of his own, making the Read More |
