as the 11th overall pick of the 2012 draft by Washington,

Cleveland, OH (SportsNetwork.com) - LeBron James joined Mark Price at the top of the Cleveland Cavaliers all-time 3-pointers made list in style. James go-ahead triple with 48.1 seconds left lifted the Cavaliers to a 105-101 win over the Toronto Raptors that upped Clevelands winning streak to eight games. The game was tied 99-99 before Kevin Love pump-faked from the left wing beyond the arc, dribbled to the left elbow and dished to James, who knocked down the trey from straightaway for the 802nd 3-pointer in his Cavs career. Kyle Lowry got the much larger Tristan Thompson guarding him on a switch at the other end on the left wing, but Thompson forced him to take a tough fadeaway from the left baseline and Lowrys shot hit the top of the backboard. Lowry was then called for an intentional foul on James Jones near midcourt, and James made the foul shot with 14.2 ticks remaining for a four-point cushion. Cleveland, though, was whistled for a 5-second violation on the ensuing inbounds. Terrence Ross dunk with 4.2 seconds to go cut the gap to 103-101, but Kyrie Irving sunk a pair of foul shots to seal the outcome. Toronto shot 58.1 percent (38-of-62) through the first three quarters and led by as many as 10 in the fourth, but Cleveland held the Raptors to a 30 percent (6-of-20) clip in the final frame. The Cavs outscored them 20-6 in the final 8:37.

Final Score: Memphis 114, Dallas 105 Memphis, TN (SportsNetwork.com) - Marc Gasol and the Grizzlies withstood 18 Dallas 3-pointers, as Memphis took control in the third quarter and fended off a Mavericks rally en route to a 114-105 win in a Southwest Division showdown. Memphis outscored the Mavs 36-17 in the third frame to turn what was once a 10-point deficit into a healthy lead they never relinquished. Gasol poured in 30 points two days after being limited to two in a win over the Heat. Mike Conley chipped in 22 points, while Zach Randolph added 17 points and 13 rebounds for the Grizzlies, who outscored the Mavs 52-26 in the paint. Chandler Parsons shot 6-of-10 from behind the arc and matched Gasol with 30 points, but the Mavs fell for the second time in three games. Jameer Nelson finished with 18 points for Dallas, while J.J.

Asik finished with 16 points and 14 rebounds, while Anthony Davis put up 18 points and eight boards in New Orleans second straight victory. Amare Stoudemire scored a season- high 26 points for New York, but Carmelo Anthony was held to a relatively quiet 17 and managed just two points in the fourth quarter.

Miami had dropped its previous four games -- all by double digits -- and trailed 91-90 after Marcus Morris drained a 3-pointer with 3:17 left in the fourth quarter. Bosh, though, hit a 14-footer, scored in the lane and drained a dagger 3-pointer on consecutive possessions to give the Heat the lead for good.

Sources tell TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger that the team is quietly gauging interest on the Senators captain, though Spezza has a limited no-trade clause and carries a large contract.Philadelphia, PA (SportsNetwork.com) - Three games isnt a large sample size by any means, but the Nashville Predators are already seeing results under new head coach Peter Laviolette. If there was ever a team in need of an identity change, it was the Predators. For 15 seasons since its inception prior to the 1998-99 season, Nashville was guided behind the bench by Barry Trotz. And to his credit, Trotz managed to do some great things with minimal resources. Nashville reached the playoffs seven times over an eight-season span from 2004-12, but missing out on the postseason in back-to-back years finally brought about the end of the Trotz era. Under Trotz, the Predators were always known as a defensively strong team, with the likes of Kimmo Timonen and Ryan Suter making a name for themselves while with the Preds. In fact, it is a defenseman in Shea Weber who serves as captain and is the most recognizable face of the franchise. Weber leads a still-strong unit that also contains the talented Roman Josi and a potential future blue line star in Seth Jones. Thats where Laviolette comes in. His job was to get Nashville more balanced on offense -- Webers 23 goals last season ranked second on the club -- and so far he has been up to the task. Nashville has scored nine goals through three games. Again, a small sample size but consider that the Predators averaged just 2.61 goals per game last season and 2.27 the campaign prior. A telling sign that Laviolettes system is working is the fast start by Filip Forsberg. The 20-year-old Swede has a goal and three assists through three games after managing just five points total in 13 games last season with Nashville. Forsberg was the 11th overall pick of the 2012 draft by Washington, which sent him to Nashville on April 3, 2013 for Martin Erat. Forsberg has had offensive success in Sweden and the AHL, and broke outt with four goals and 12 points in seven games for his country at the 2014 Winter Olympics, but has struggled to stick in the NHL.dddddddddddd He may finally emerge as a scoring threat under Laviolette if this pace keeps up. Im just trying to play as hard as I can every night; thats something I learned last year when I was starting out, Forsberg told Nashvilles website. Ive been really trying to earn my ice time, and it feels good to get this chance. Hopefully I can continue to keeping playing good here. While he never got a chance with the Capitals and played in only 18 games under Trotz in two seasons, Laviolette currently has Forsberg on his top line with Mike Ribeiro and James Neal. Nashville also has been a tough team to play under Laviolette in the early going. The Preds posted three-goal third periods in winning their first two games of the season versus Ottawa and Dallas after needing 20 games last season to record a pair of three-goal final frames. What makes the Predators offense a potential force is the fact that Neal, the clubs big offseason acquisition from Pittsburgh, has yet to get going. Its only a matter of time, though, as the winger has fired 12 shots in three games and is toping Nashville forwards with 17 minutes and 53 seconds of ice time. Ill get back to work here, and Ive just got to keep shooting pucks. I felt like I had some good looks in the first two games and if I keep doing what Im doing, theyll come, Neal told Nashvilles website. You just have to stay even keel, you cant get too high or too low. Its a long season, you stay in the game and your bounces will come as long as you keep working for them. It is a long season and the Predators offense will certainly have its ups and downs as it gets fully acclimated to Laviolette. But like a well-cooked meal, the early return has raised the excitement level.
