Time for Camakazee’s neat-o stats of the night.

The Dirty Dozen.

For the first time in Cavaliers history, the team was able to extend their 11 game winning streak. That is, the current 12 game win streak that the Cavs have is a franchise best for most consecutive wins. Here are some team notables from what I will now term “the dirty dozen”:

- Cavaliers: 102.3 points per game on 452-969 (46.6%) shooting.

- Opponent: 92.8 points per game on 415-969 (42.8%) shooting.

- LeBron James (12 games): 28.5 points, 9.7 assists, 9.3 rebounds, 1.9 steals, and 1.5 blocks.

- Mo Williams (12 games): 19.2 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 3.6 assists on 38-82 (46.3%) three point shooting.

- Anderson Varejao (12 games): 10.8 points and 8.9 rebounds on 53-88 (60.2%) shooting.

- 1st Half (12 games): Cavs – 51.0 points, OPP – 45.6 points. Also, the second half of the game today (Cavs – 55, Dallas – 25) was obviously the biggest point differential in the second half of any of the games (+30), as the previous best was +18 vs. the Clippers.

- The Cavs have had extreme focus as of late, winning their last two games by 20+ points. In the ten wins prior to Friday night, the team had only two double digit wins, with their largest margin of victory being 11 points. In those ten games, the team outscored their opponent by a total of 64 points (6.4 points per game). By contrast, over the last two the Cavs have won by a total of 50 points (25.0 points per game).

- As many of you know, the Cavaliers are now 34-0 when scoring 100 or more points in games this season. Similarly, after today, they are 31-1 in games they hold their opponents to under 90 points. Over the 12 game streak, the Cavs have scored 100 points and held their opponent to under 90 points five times each. In the last three games, the Cavs have held their opponent to under 90 points and they have scored over 100 points in the last two games.

- In the first 8 games of the streak, the Cavaliers were only outrebounded twice, but grabbed less offensive rebounds in five games. On the other hand, in the last four games, the Cavs have outrebounded their opponent and grabbed more offensive rebounds in all four games. As a result, they are averaging 10.5 offensive rebounds and 48.8 total rebounds compared to their opponent’s 8.0 offensive rebounds and 34.5 boards per game over the last four.

Gotti Does Dallas.

Early in the season, Mo Williams buried the Dallas Mavericks in the fourth quarter en route to the team’s second win (record: 2-2!). Sixty-nine games and fifty-eight wins later, Mo posted another solid game versus the Mavs. Here is how Mo and the team have handled Dallas this season:

- Cavaliers: 101.0 points per game on 75-173 (43.4%) shooting.

- Opponent: 77.5 points per game on 58-151 (38.4%) shooting.

- LeBron James (2 games): 26.5 points, 7.5 assists, and 7.0 rebounds, going 17-20 (85.0%) from the free throw line.

- Mo Williams (2 games): 18.0 points, 5.5 assists, and 3.5 rebounds on 13-28 (46.4%) shooting.

- 2nd Half (2 games): Cavs – 52.0 points, Mavs – 32.0 points.

- Before December of last season, the Cavaliers were an awful 2-7 versus Dallas during the LeBron James era. Since then, however, they are 3-0 winning games by an average of 18.0 points per game. Furthermore, the Cavs are holding Dirk Nowitzki to 15.7 points per game on 16-51 (31.4%) shooting in those three games. Ultimately, with the win today, LeBron James got to experience his first sweep of yet another western conference opponent.

- While the Cavs now improve to 5-7 against the Mavericks in the LeBron era, the evidence is overwhelming when considering LeBron’s role in the wins. Here are his numbers in wins contrasted with his numbers in the losses:

LeBron James in wins (5 games): 32.0 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 6.6 assists.

LeBron James in losses (7 games): 25.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 5.6 assists.

- On the season, LeBron is averaging 28.8 points in wins and 26.3 points in losses (-2.5 points per game), so a difference of 6.4 points per game in wins is very significant.

- Finally, the Cavaliers have held the Dallas Mavericks, a team noted for their high octane offense, to under 100 points in their last 9 meetings. Here is a look at Dallas’ struggles versus the Cavs compared to their points per game in their other 80 games (71 this season):

05-06 Mavs: 99.3 points per game, 92.5 points per game vs. CLE (-6.8 points).

06-07 Mavs: 100.1 points per game, 96.5 points per game vs. CLE (-3.6 points).

07-08 Mavs: 100.8 points per game, 86.5 points per game vs. CLE (-14.3 points).

08-09 Mavs: 101.8 points per game, 77.5 points per game vs. CLE (-24.3 points).

Day N’ Nite.

In their fourth one o’clock tip off this season, the Cavaliers ran away with a win, their third in such games. With one day game left (vs. San Antonio), here is a look at how the Cavs perform at 1:00 PM as opposed to later tip off times:

Cavs games @ 1:00 PM

- record: 3-1.

- Cavaliers: 94.8 points per game on 146-327 (44.6%) shooting.

- Opponent: 85.8 points per game on 129-329 (39.2%) shooting.

Cavs evening/night games:

- record: 57-12.

- Cavaliers: 100.6 points per game on 2,536-5,395 (47.0%) shooting.

- Opponent: 91.2 points per game on 2,331-5,406 (43.1%) shooting.

While the Cavaliers may still have crusties in their eyes during the one o’clock start, their defense certainly comes to play. Here are some notables from other day games and today’s game:

- LeBron James is averaging 9.3 assists in the four one o’clock games, recording his third double-double today. With 12 assists and 0 turnovers, LeBron James recorded his most assists in a game with 0 turnovers in his 21 career games without a turnover.

- Joe Smith played his first day game as a Cavalier this season, scoring 12 points and grabbing 13 rebounds. This marks his first career double-double for Cleveland, as his 13 rebounds is also a Cavalier-high. Steady Joe is now averaging 7.1 points and 4.8 rebounds per game in 13 games as a Cav, compared to 8.1 points and 5.0 rebounds in 27 contests for Cleveland last year.

- Lastly, the 28 point win over the Mavs marks the Cavaliers largest margin of victory since they trounced the New York Knicks by 36 in early December.

View from the other side:

- Ryan Hollins recorded a career high 12 rebounds in the loss today. With 7 points to go along with the 12 boards, he is now averaging 6.6 points over his last five games after averaging only 2.3 points in his first 16 games as a Dallas Maverick.

- After averaging 14.0 points in his three games prior to Friday night, Antoine Wright is now averaging only 3.0 points per game on 2-12 (16.7%) shooting in his last two contests.
