Kyrie Irving scored 33 points on 12-for-28 shooting in Wednesday's win in which LeBron James didn't play.

Tyronn Lue wanted Irving to be aggressive with James out of the lineup, but a few Cleveland Cavaliers' teammates were puzzled by how he recorded just one assist in 39 minutes.

During one possession in the second quarter, Irving dribbled for 24 seconds and went nowhere before settling for a tough mid-range jumper.

Irving and Kevin Love combined for 176 touches but just two assists.
