Wesley Matthews finished with 18 points and Nicolas Batum had 14 points and nine rebounds.

The Cavaliers were led by Kyrie Irving, who had 25 points and 10 assists.

The Cavaliers gave a valiant effort. Trailing by 10 with just 2:15 to go, the Cavaliers went on a 12-2 run led by Irving, who scored nine straight points. The Cavaliers tied the game when Irving found Anderson Varejao with just 7.1 seconds left to set up Lillard’s shot.
