Cavs extend win streak to 5 games with win over Nets; 3 takeaways

2. Fourth quarter comeback

While James was arguably the biggest asset in the Cavs’ fourth quarter comeback, he did have plenty of help.

Jordan Clarkson had 10 points and Rodney Hood chipped in nine in the final frame. Clarkson ended the game with 18 points, while Hood chipped in 16. Hood has been struggling with back pain over the last couple of weeks, and Sunday was far and away the best he has looked since taking time off to deal with the injury.

Along with key scoring from James, Hood and Clarkson in the quarter, the Cavs did an excellent job of moving the ball and attacking the paint, giving them better looks at the hoop. This resulted in Cleveland shooting 12-of-18 from the field, compared to 8-of-19 for Brooklyn.
