Cavs improve to 4-0 with 128-120 win over Rockets

The Cleveland Cavaliers improved to 4-0 with a 128-120 win over the Houston Rockets.

Cleveland trailed 35-29 after one quarter of play, but dominated the Rockets in the second quarter, going on a 17-2 run.

Houston rallied back, and Trevor Ariza drained a three to tie the game at 92 with just over 8 minutes to play, but the Cavs closed it out once again to remain perfect on the season.

LeBron James scored 19 points, grabbed 13 rebounds, and passed for eight assists, while Kyrie Irving scored a team-high 32 points. Kevin Love scored 24.

James Harden scored a game-high 41 points and dished out 15 assists in the losing effort. Houston falls to 2-2 on the season.

Our RolePlayer of the Game Award goes to Channing Frye, who scored 11 points off the bench in his first game back since his mother passed away from cancer last Thursday.

The Cavs are back in action at home on Thursday night, when they host the Boston Celtics.
