LeBron James Records 15th Playoff Triple-Double; Cavs Set NBA Records

There’s a reason they call LeBron James “The King.” James and the Cleveland Cavaliers just took home another blowout victory over the Toronto Raptors, this time by a 108-89 final in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals. The game was close for most of the first half, and the Raptors even were tied with Cleveland at 46 with four minutes remaining before halftime. But Cleveland closed those final 240 seconds on a 16-2 run to put the game away early. James finished with 23 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists, his 15th career playoff triple-double, second all-time behind only Los Angeles Lakers great and Hall of Famer Magic Johnson.

by Zack Cox on Fri, Apr 1, 2016 at 11:36PM 1,923 The Boston Bruins’ offense broke out in a big way Friday night, beating the St. Louis Blues’ vaunted goaltending duo a half-dozen times to secure a win they desperately needed. Leading this charge was center David Krejci, who scored two of Boston’s goals and assisted on two others in the first regular-season four-point effort of his career. “He was extremely good — no doubt,” head coach Claude Julien told NESN’s Jack Edwards a...
