CLEVELAND -- LeBron James could finally be himself.
Goedkope Nike Air Max Belgie . He smiled
easily, joked around and blew a few kisses to the crowd. This trip home was
different than the others. There was less tension, fewer boos, nothing to fear.
This time, James almost felt welcomed. James scored 28 points and seemed more
relaxed than in previous games back in Cleveland, leading the Miami Heat to
their eighth straight win, 95-84 over the Cavaliers on Wednesday night. He added
eight rebounds and eight assists in his fifth game as a visitor against the
Cavs, the team that drafted him and the one he led to the NBA finals before
leaving as a free agent three years ago to chase NBA championships in Miami.
James improved to 11-1 against Cleveland. Unlike his previous four visits, James
wasnt the target of nonstop booing or taunts. There wasnt the hatred that filled
Quicken Loans Arena the first time he came back on Dec. 2, 2010. "Its been less
and less since the first time I was here," said James, soaking his ankles in an
ice bucket and drinking a postgame smoothie. "Nothing can be worse than that."
Dwyane Wade added 22 points and Michael Beasley 17 for Miami, which coasted
during long stretches and never appeared threatened. Dion Waiters, the subject
of trade rumours, scored a season-high 24 and Kyrie Irving had 16 for Cleveland.
The Heat opened a 15-point lead in the third and responded to every spurt by the
Cavs, who got within eight in the final two minutes. James outscored Clevelands
starters 28-26, and except for arguing a few calls with the officials that didnt
go his way, the four-time MVP and two-time champ enjoyed his visit home as he
reminded Cavaliers fans what theyve been missing. After the final horn, James
waved to some fans and tossed his headband and wrist bracelets into the crowd
the way he always did when he played in Cleveland. "Of late, there have been
some cheers here," Wade said. "At the end of the day, hes from Ohio. I think
some fans are proud of that." The Cavs, who came in to the season with playoff
expectations, have lost four in a row and seven of eight. Six of their 11 losses
have been by more than 10 points. "Everyone else can write us off," Irving said.
"But in this locker room, we believe in each other. Were going to figure this
out." The atmosphere inside the arena was subdued compared to James previous
trips. There was energy, but not the same anger as many Clevelanders seem to
have moved on and are more concerned with the struggling Cavs getting better
than venting at James. The disgust has decayed. This time it was a game, not an
event. In fact, things have cooled to the point that a group of fans have
started a campaign to bring back James, who can opt out of his contract and
become a free agent next summer. The group handed out neon green "Come Home
LeBron" T-shirts outside the arena before the game. He received the usual boos
when he took the floor, but he was soon blowing kisses to fans in the seats as
he recognized familiar faces and friends. Before the opening tip, James pointed
toward Cavs coach Mike Brown, who nodded toward a former player who has done a
lot of growing up. James started slowly, scoring just 3 points in the first
quarter, which ended with the Cavs leading 28-22. He changed shoes between
quarters, swapping a red pair for black ones. In different kicks, his game
kicked into gear. He scored nine points in the second quarter, when the Heat
turned up their defensive pressure and held the Cavaliers to 14 points on 5 of
25 shooting. "I didnt feel good early on, but once I got back into the game I
started feeling better," James said. "In the second quarter I got into some good
rhythm. We started knocking down some shots and I got some rebounds and steals."
James seemed intent on ending his night early. He scored Miamis first eight
points of the third and fed Chris Bosh for two layups. James dropped a 3-pointer
and his free throw gave the Heat their biggest lead at 68-53. The Cavs came in
reeling following a 30-point beatdown in San Antonio on Saturday. Adding to
their disarray was a report that the club is trying to trade Waiters, who denied
he asked to be moved and insists he loves playing in Cleveland. "Its just
nonsense," Waiters said. "Theres been things thrown out there that havent been
true at all." NOTES: James will host Thanksgiving for his teammates at his
30,000-square-foot mansion in Bath, Ohio, on Thursday. James decided to have his
teammates over when he realized the team was headed to Canada to play on the day
after the holiday. "Toronto doesnt celebrate Thanksgiving," he said. "It was
either do it at a hotel or do it at my house. Id much rather do it at my house."
... Brown said No. 1 overall pick Anthony Bennett has been making steady
progress. "Hes a young guy trying to find his way," Brown said. ... The Heat
were without forwards Shane Battier (flu) and Udonis Haslam (back).

English said. "I hit the ball really well all week. It got a little windy the
first two days and I struggled a bit with my driver, but I found it down the
stretch." The 24-year-old former University of Georgia star finished at 21-under
