03/12/2010 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - LeBron James ended with 23 points and Mo Williams chipped in 21, as Cleveland pulled out a tough 100-95 decision over the Philadelphia 76ers.
James, who missed the previous two games due to a mildly sprained right ankle, also handed out 10 assists and grabbed six rebounds for the Cavaliers, who went 1-1 in his absence.
Delonte West scored 17 points, while fellow reserve Anderson Varejao had 12 points and 12 rebounds for the Cavs, who have won eight of their last nine games.
Andre Iguodala posted 30 points, seven boards and five assists for the Sixers, who have dropped eight of nine. Elton Brand contributed 24 points and nine rebounds, and Thaddeus Young added 15 points in the loss.
Philadelphia led 85-80 early stages of the fourth quarter, but Cleveland scored 11 of the next 13 points, as James ended the run with a highlight-reel alley-oop dunk and a 1-for-2 effort at the foul line.
It was still a four-point game in favor of the Cavs before Young went 1-for-2 at the stripe with 1:28 to play for a 98-95 game.
Iguodala turned the ball over on the next Sixers possession, but Philly got the ball back with 24.1 seconds left after a missed three from Jamario Moon.
After a timeout, Sixers rookie Jrue Holiday was forced into an ill-advised pass along the baseline. West was the recipient of the easy steal and hit two free throws with 18.6 left for a 100-95 lead.
Iguodala missed two three-pointers the next time down the end the game.
A dunk-filled first quarter ended with Cleveland holding a 36-34 lead.
The Cavs, who have already clinched a playoff spot, led 61-57 at halftime before watching the Sixers end the third quarter on a 10-2 run. Brand's jumper beat the buzzer to put the hosts on top 79-78.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
