The first one caused a stir, the next two a commotion. And when LeBron James sank his fourth straight 3-pointer in less than two minutes, everyone in the building was on their feet begging for more.
"It was amazing," Cavaliers forward Donyell Marshall said. "We were just like the fans, we wanted him to keep shooting, too."
James, playing his first regular-season game with new teammates brought in to help get him to the playoffs, made six 3-pointers and scored 31 points as Cleveland won its season opener 109-87 over the New Orleans Hornets on Wednesday.
James made five straight 3-pointers ? four in a row during a 1:44 span over Hornets forward Bostjan Nachbar ? and scored 24 in the first half as the Cavs built a 21-point lead.
