ROCHESTER, N.Y., Oct. 18 (Ticker) -- Without LeBron James, the
Cleveland Cavaliers were no match for the revamped Toronto
Raptors.
Undrafted rookie Jorge Garbajosa scored 16 points and No. 1
overall pick Andrea Bargnani added 13 as the Raptors posted a
103-81 victory over the Cavaliers to remain unbeaten in the
preseason.
On the second night of a back-to-back, Cleveland coach Mike Brown decided to rest James. The 21-year-old superstar
collected 13 points, eight rebounds and eight assists in Tuesday
night's 93-67 victory over Israeli power Maccabi Tel Aviv.
Toronto (4-0) has made a concerted effort to change its pace of
play to an uptempo, European style, and it has worked so
far in the preseason.
Garbajosa, who helped Spain to the gold medal in the World
Championships during the summer, was 5-of-10 from the field,
connecting on four 3-pointers. Bargnani, a 6-10 forward/center
from Italy, was 5-of-11 from the floor. Fred Jones also had 13
points on 6-of-13 shooting for the Raptors.
Drew Gooden netted 15 points and undrafted first-year guard
Daniel Gibson had 13 for the Cavaliers, who shot 46 percent
(33-of-72).
