In the other games, it was: Magic 115, Bulls 83; Knicks 109, Bobcats 107; Hornets 122, Timberwolves 90; Rockets 103, SuperSonics 80; and Suns 96, Spurs 79.

At Cleveland, the win came at an opportune time for the Cavaliers, who had lost six of eight coming in - including two straight at home.

For much of the game it looked like Cleveland's troubles would continue. The Nets led 67-53 midway through the third period before the Cavaliers went on a 23-7 run, which saw James score eight points.

Cleveland led 76-74 going into the fourth quarter. Bostjan Nachbar's 3-pointer to begin the period gave New Jersey a one-point lead, but that would be New Jersey's last field goal of the game. The Nets went scoreless on 10 straight possessions and didn't score again until Vince Carter's two free throws with 4:36 left pulled them to 87-79.

New Jersey was 1-of-20 from the field and scored nine points in the fourth.

In Washington, Antawn Jamison returned after missing two games with a shoulder injury to score 27 points as the Wizards ended Boston's seven-game winning streak and became only the second team to win the season series against the Celtics.

"It says a lot to beat them three games to one throughout the regular season," Jamison said. "It gives us the confidence to know that we can match up with them."

Gilbert Arenas, in his third game back after a 66-game absence due to knee surgery, added 13 points on 5-for-14 shooting in 24 minutes.
