He said taking the time to make this trip is something he has been hoping to do for several years. RIO GRANDE — One member of the University of Rio Grande and Rio Grande Community College’s faculty is making an extra effort to thank veterans throughout history. Sports and Exercise Studies Instructor Dr. Cory Schierberl is planning to spend his spring break at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia, stopping at hundreds of thousands of graves to give thanks to the veterans laid to rest on the 624-acre grounds. He said taking the time to make this trip is something he has been hoping to do for several years. “There are US veteran cemeteries all over the world, and some of the older graves may have not had family or friends alive to visit in a hundred years. I feel this is a way for me to show my respect for their sacriﬁces to our great nation,” Schierberl said. Schierberl worked as a civilian contractor training and educating United States soldiers all over the US and overseas for almost three years. During this time, he had the opportunity to visit the gravesite of his great uncle Robert E. Schierberl (2LT) in southern Italy, where he was killed in action in WWII. Inspired by his family member’s ultimate sac- riﬁce, Schierberl set his goal to visit each veteran at Arlington National Cemetery. He said he hopes to make trips like this to honor veterans, both nationally and internationally, an integral part of his life. “My family has a strong military background. While I chose to go into academics later in my career, I did get to spend over two years working as a civilian contractor with the United States Army, serving as the lead instructor for the Master Fitness Trainer Program,” Schierberl said. “While in Europe training our nation’s ﬁnest, I went to see my Partnership for health assessments established Ten experiences you shouldn’t miss in Meigs County By Perry Varnadoe Special to the Sentinel We often take for granted the wonderful and unique experiences right here in Meigs County for residents and visitors alike.

In a statement following the approval but the House, DeWine stated, “With OHIO VALLEY — Holzer Health System has partnered in the Southeast Ohio Regional Core Group, consisting of Gallia, Jackson, Vinton, and Meigs County Health Departments and Holzer Health System representatives, which is working toward completing a regional Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA). The regional CHNA will identify key health needs and issues through systematic, comprehensive data collection and analysis. The ﬁndings from these health assessments guide the group in completing a region-wide health improvement plan. A community health improvement planning process is a longterm, systematic effort to address public health problems based on the results of community health assessment activities and the community health improvement process. Holzer and the local health departments say they are committed to a shared vision and common agenda with an understanding that no single organization can create a large-scale and lasting change within the region. The primary goal of this regional core group is to improve the health of the populations within the southeast Ohio region. To guide their efforts, this group is utilizing the Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP) process, created by the National Association of County and City Health Ofﬁcials (NACCHO).

Soy Wax Candles from �NEWS Daily Sentinel Friday, March 8, 2019 3 DeWine delays 3 more executions COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Gov. Mike DeWine on Thursday delayed three additional executions to give the Ohio prison system time to develop a new lethal injection method, responding to a federal judge’s scathing critique of the ﬁrst drug used in the current process. Federal Magistrate Judge Michael Merz said in January that inmates could suffer severe pain and an experience similar to waterboarding because the drug, the sedative midazolam, doesn’t render them deeply enough unconscious. DeWine, a Republican, delayed a February execution after the judge’s ruling and ordered the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction to develop a new pro- cess. But Merz questioned why Ohio was preparing for additional executions, given that directive. DeWine said Thursday it was “highly unlikely” any new injection process would make it through expected lawsuits in time for the next three executions. The governor “is also mindful of the emotional trauma experienced by victims’ families, prosecutors, law enforcement, and DRC employees when an execution is prepared for and then rescheduled,” DeWine’s ofﬁce said in a statement. The inmates affected by the decision, their old execution dates, and their new dates: — Cleveland Jackson. Originally scheduled to die May 29 for fatally shooting a 17-year-old in Lima in 2002 in a bloody drugrelated robbery on a crowded home. New date: Nov. 13. — Kareem Jackson. Originally scheduled to die July 10 for shooting and killing two men in Columbus during a 1997 robbery. New date: Jan. 16, 2020. — Gregory Lott. Originally scheduled to die Aug. 14 for setting an 82-year-old man on ﬁre in a 1986 East Cleveland robbery. New date: March 12, 2020. In January, following the judge’s ruling, DeWine rescheduled the execution of Keith Henness from Feb. 13 to Sept. 12. Henness was convicted of killing 51-year-old Richard Myers in Columbus in 1992. Authorities say Myers had been helping Henness ﬁnd a drug treatment for his wife. Health From page 1 strategic planning process for improving community health.

Hey! Hey! Hey! Right before He died on the Cross, Jesus Christ told a certain story. It was about a wealthy individual getting ready to go on a long trip. But, before he left, he called in three of his servants. He gave to each a certain amount of money to manage Pastor Ron during his absence. He was gone for Branch a long time. But, Contributing when he eventually columnist returned, he called in the three servants to give an account of what they had done with their funds. Two of the servants reported that, in committed manner, they had invested wisely and had doubled their boss’ monies. The boss was apparently impressed with the two, and said to each of them, “Well done, you good and faithful servant. Because you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.” We understand that the Lord’s point of this story had to do with how we should be constantly working and waiting for His Return. However, there is another subtle truth found from what the man told his servants. In so many terms, the man was saying that he was proud of them. They had done so well. You can hear it in his words to them. There is a simple little chant a group can speak when someone does something noteworthy, which is, “We-are-proud of you…We are proud of you! Hey! Hey! Hey!” I have led this in church when church kids have done something well. Occasionally, at least, it is good to know that what we have done makes someone proud of us. Kids need to know it. Parents sometimes need to know it. Employees also. But, God’s people also need to know that God is proud of them, too. Why is it important that from time to time you know that God is proud of you? It is important because sometimes you work committedly for the Lord, and you start to wonder if He notices all that you regularly do in His name. You wonder if your faithfulness is being noticed. Does He see your church attendance? Does He see your ministry to others? Does He hear your constant prayers? Be honest — sometimes you get discouraged when you do not register any obvious acknowledgements. It is important because sometimes you are constantly doing well and you get weary in doing so. Your kindness is often ignored. Your smiles are not returned. Your helpful gestures are not recognized. You just get tired of being the “nice person” all the time. You feel like you are not making a dent anywhere or with anybody. It is important because sometimes you “wrestle” hard against the difﬁculties and rigors that the “principalities, the powers, and the rulers of the darkness of this world” constantly set against you. Evil inﬂuences and negative consequences seem stacked against you. Life seems so unfair. It seems like you never get to win. It seems like you can never get ahead. Something bad is always happening despite your struggle to stay steady. If you are faithful to God, steady in practicing His principles, and you persevere in being an overcomer through adversities, He is, oh, most surely, proud of you. After all, God said of His Son, “This is my Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Notice also the Lord’s words of encouragement to the churches mentioned in Revelation. He said, “I know your works, your labor, and your patience…I know you tribulations and your poverty…I know that you hold fast my name, and have not denied my faith…I know your charity, and service, and faith, and your patience…I know that you have kept my word.” What He knew about them, we can compare to what He knows about us. Therefore, if He knows what you are doing, then He is paying attention to you. And, if He is paying that kind of attention to you, you bound to know that He is proud of you — Hey! Hey! Hey! Pastor Ron Branch lives in Mason County and is pastor of Hope Baptist Church, Middleport, Ohio. Daily Sentinel Temptation: A problem word This week, I’d like to talk about a big word — temptation. Temptation, or being tempted, is when you want to do something even though you know it’s not the best choice. Adults and children are all tempted, so it never really goes away. The temptations just may change somewhat as we grow older. Some of these may seem minor, but some are very big ones and hard to resist, and you will have to decide what you will do right then. Maybe it will be something just like sneaking a piece of candy after your Mom has told you not to, or it may be be something like cheating on a test at school or keeping money you just found on the ground. Doing what is right and what we’d like to do are often hard, hard decisions that face us all throughout our lives. The ﬂicker that goes through our minds is that no one will know or ﬁnd out, so just this once won’t hurt, but in our hearts, we know differently. Yes, all of us are tempted to make wrong choices now and then. That is not a sin; it’s what we do when tempted that sometimes turns into sin. But guess what: even to do more important Jesus was tempted in things. our story this week as Next, the devil told found in Luke 4:1-13. Jesus that Jesus could After Jesus’ baphave power over all tism, He went into the the kingdoms of the wilderness all by Himworld — all of the self to pray.

Jesus said, “No. The Scripture tells us to worship in the wilderness, the Bible the Lord, and to serve only tells us He was tempted by God.” Jesus knew that God the devil. was the One truly in charge, As I said, He hadn’t eaten and that to be faithful to God for over a month, so He was right — to follow the was really, really hungry.

The and lead to misery. devil said, “I know you’re The devil took one, last super hungry. Turn these shot at tempting Jesus away stones into loaves of bread from what He was meant if You are the Son of God, to do and be in this world. that is.” Jesus was tempted The devil took Jesus to because He had never been so hungry, but He answered, Jerusalem and lifted Him up to the very tippy-top of the “No. The Bible says man does not live by bread alone.” Temple. He said, “Okay now, Jesus knew He shouldn’t use show me Your stuff. Throw His power for selﬁsh reasons. Yourself down from this high place, and let’s watch God Jesus knew God sent Him save You.” Jesus said, “No. It is not right to test God in such a way.” Jesus knew His power was not for show, but to do good and bring people to God. The devil gave up, and Jesus got to work, teaching and preaching about God, God’s love and forgiveness, and showing people how to be God’s faithful servant. Everyone is tempted to do the wrong thing now and again. Making the good choice to say “No” to temptation is what Jesus did and what we can do too. But when we sometimes make the wrong choice, Jesus understands and promises to forgive us, so that we can move on and make the right choice the next time. All we have to do is pray to Him. Let’s pray together. Dear God, it helps us to know that Jesus went through the same kinds of things in life that we go through. Help us to make good choices like Jesus did. And when we make mistakes, please forgive us and help us to do better next time. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.

Two grapplers from River Valley — senior Eric Weber and freshman Nathan Cadle — are competing in their first state tournaments as the Division III meet started the annual three-day event. RVHS is also the only program in the Ohio Valley Publishing area with any competitors at this year’s state meet. Updates will be made throughout Thursday on how each River Valley grappler fared in his opening round bout. A recap of Day 1 results will be made available in the weekend sports edition of the Sunday Times-Sentinel. Northwestern snaps 10-game skid, beats Ohio State 68-50 EVANSTON, Ill. (AP) — With Kaleb Wesson out serving a suspension, Dererk Pardon took full advantage. Pardon had 20 points and 13 rebounds as Northwestern snapped a 10-game losing streak with a 68-50 win over Ohio State on Wednesday night. Vic Law and A.J. Turner had 10 points apiece and Pardon was 8 for 10 from the ﬁeld as the Wildcats (13-17, 4-15 Big Ten) won for the ﬁrst time since beating Indiana 73-66 on Jan. 22. “We know we got a break tonight not having Kaleb Wesson in the game, but sometimes that happens,” Northwestern coach Chris Collins said. “They’re a different team without him there.” Keyshawn Woods had 15 points and seven rebounds for Ohio State (18-12, 8-11), which lost its second straight without Wesson. The Buckeyes have dropped ﬁve of seven. Wesson was suspended indeﬁnitely by Ohio State last week for an unspeciﬁed violation of athletic department policy. The 6-foot-9 sophomore center leads the team in scoring (14.6 points) and rebounding (6.7). He had 22 points and eight rebounds in the Buckeyes’ 63-49 win over Northwestern on Feb. 20. “It was especially important with Kaleb Wesson not playing to throw the ball into Dererk and have him be aggressive,” Law said. “He’s such a big part of their team and to have him suddenly taken away is hard.” Ohio State was blown out 86-51 by Purdue on Saturday in the ﬁrst game of the Wesson suspension. Things weren’t any better at the start of this one. The Buckeyes missed their ﬁrst 14 ﬁeld-goal attempts on Wednesday before C.J. Jackson scored on a driving layup with 11:09 left in the ﬁrst half. Still, they trailed only 12-4 at that point. Northwestern wasn’t lighting up the scoreboard either — 11 of 28 (39.3 percent) from the ﬁeld — but took a 28-17 halftime lead. Ohio State was 4 of 27 (14.8 percent) from the ﬁeld in the ﬁrst half and the 17 points was a season low. Ohio State played much better on offense in the second half and trimmed the deﬁcit to 47-42 with just less than nine minutes left. Northwestern, though, answered with 10 straight points for a commanding 57-42 advantage — its largest to that point — with six minutes to go. Pardon capped the run with a 3-point play on a dunk. He had 18 second-half points on 7-for-7 shooting. “We just had no answer for him,” Buckeyes coach Chris Holtmann said of Pardon. See SNAP | 7 Browns release Collins David Richard | AP file The Browns released outside linebacker Jamie Collins on Wednesday with two years remaining on his contract. He was due to make $10.5 million this season and $12.5 million in 2020. CLEVELAND (AP) — Jamie Collins had ﬂashes of brilliance with the Browns. Not nearly enough of them, though. Cleveland released the veteran linebacker on Wednesday with two years remaining on his contract. Collins never lived up to high expectations with New England or the Browns, who were in line to pay him $10.5 million this season and $12.5 million in 2020. By cutting Collins, the Browns will save $9.25 million in salarycap space for 2019, leaving them with around $80 million to improve a roster that went 7-8-1 last season. The 29-year-old Collins was acquired in a trade midway through the 2016 season from New England in exchange for a third-round draft choice. Collins made 30 starts for the Browns, with 204 tackles, seven sacks and two interceptions. However, the 6-foot-3, 250-pounder wasn’t consistent and drew criticism from fans last season for not hustling. Browns general manager John Dorsey met with Collins’ agents last week at the NFL combine to discuss the player’s future. “We want to thank Jamie for his contributions to the Cleveland Browns,” Dorsey said in a statement. “These types of decisions are never easy. Jamie is a respected veteran player in this league and we wish him the best as he continues his career.” Collins started all 16 games last season and ﬁnished with a team-high 104 tackles, four sacks and one interception. But there were long stretches in which Collins seemed to disappear, and in the end the Browns decided his contract — a fouryear, $50 million deal signed in See COLLINS | 7 LeBron overwhelmed after passing Jordan LOS ANGELES (AP) — From the very ﬁrst day LeBron James picked up a basketball, he wanted to be like Mike. James and his closest friends idolized Michael Jordan while they grew up together on Akron’s competitive playgrounds and tough streets. As James grew into a tantalizing basketball prospect capable of jumping from high school to the NBA as the No. 1 draft pick, he studied, imitated and drew profound inspiration from Jordan’s tongue-wagging dunks, that fadeaway jumper, his competitive ﬁre — even the little details of the way Jordan wore his sneakers and shorts. James proudly put No. 23 on his back as soon as he could get it as a high school sophomore. “He was everything,” James said. Jordan has also admired James’ game for years. “I want to congratulate LeBron on achieving another great milestone during his amazing career,” Jordan said in a statement to The Associated Press on Thursday through his spokeswoman, Estee Portnoy. When James surpassed Jordan’s career points total Wednesday night, he did it in a pair of Nikes with “Thank You M.J.” written neatly on the side. That tribute doesn’t begin to encompass what Jordan’s radiance meant to a youngster who dreamed of ﬁnding a better life through basketball. “M.J. was an inspiration,” James said. “M.J. was the lightning in a bottle for me, because I wanted to be like him.” James has grown into a 34-yearold man with three championship rings and a redoubtable 16-year NBA career. Yet he is still in awe of Jordan, who has represented the apex of achievement for his entire life. James moved past Jordan into fourth place on the NBA’s career scoring list with a driving threepoint play in the second quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers’ 115-99 loss to the Denver Nuggets. He bettered Jordan’s 32,292 career points with another variation of the brute physical brilliance that deﬁnes his playing style — a style that was inﬂuenced by Jordan’s combination of grace and aggressiveness. James ﬁnished with 31 points, seven rebounds and seven assists. His struggling Lakers rallied late, but dropped their fourth straight game in a season that appears to be lost. Every loss eats at James, yet he ﬁdgeted in front of his locker afterward with the anxiousness of a rookie, still buzzing over the enormity of the moment in his life. See LEBRON | 7 �SPORTS/TV Daily Sentinel Friday, March 8, 2019 7 New Ohio State coach kicks off tenure with many new faces COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio State has a new head coach, a reconstituted offensive line and a transfer quarterback who has never started a college football game. But that doesn’t mean expectations will be adjusted for a team that went 86-9 in the past seven seasons under Urban Meyer. Former Meyer assistant Ryan Day began his inaugural season running the show on Wednesday when he convened the ﬁrst of 15 spring practices he hopes will give him a better idea of what he has to work with. The workouts will culminate in the annual spring game, set for April 13. “During the offseason, I think a lot of guys stepped up as leaders,” said Day, who got a taste of the job as a stand-in last season while Meyer served a three-game suspension. “But now Martell transferred to Miami. One of the top prep recruits in the nation in 2018, Fields played sparingly behind Jake Fromm at Georgia last season. “It was good to get out there and kind of feel what this (quarterback) group can handle, who are they, what’s their identity going to be,” said Day, who was Meyer’s quarterbacks coach for two seasons. “Day 1, so it’s hard to tell, but it’s Paul Vernon | AP not going to be the same.

From page 6 “When you’re an innercity kid from Akron, Ohio, like myself and my guys growing up, you look for anything that can inspire you,” James said. “You’re always just up against the numbers of failing. The percentages of guys like myself — single-parent household, only child, underprivileged — (the chance of) making it out is not high at all. M.J. had a lot to do with me making it out, along with my mother, along with the city itself, along with the Little League coaches I had. But Mike had no idea what he was doing for a kid that was growing up a 45-minute ﬂight away from Chicago, where he was putting in that work.” James acknowledged he missed most of the tribute video aired at Staples Center during the timeout after his milestone points. That’s because he was crying into a towel on the Lakers’ bench. James is among the last Snap From page 6 Big picture Ohio State: The school has said that Wesson will return this season, although no speciﬁc date was given. There’s been speculation that he’ll miss one more game before returning for the start of the Big Ten tournament next week in Chicago. After being ranked in the Top 25 earlier in the season, the Buckeyes’ sureﬁre NCAA tournament bid may be in doubt. Northwestern: The Wildcats can ﬁnally exhale after snapping the extended losing streak. They remain in last place in the Big Ten and will active players who were old enough to witness Jordan in his prime with the Chicago Bulls. Little LeBron would buy packs of basketball cards hoping for a Jordan, and he would study every aspect of Jordan’s game, down to the way he wore his calf sleeve turned slightly inside-out so that the red lining showed. James couldn’t afford Air Jordans, but he remembers walking through the mall and marveling at the pristine red-and-black shoes. They inspired him to dream of having his own shoes, a natural result of being the star he hoped to become. “You guys have no idea what M.J. did for me and my friends growing up,” James said. “Just in a sense of, some days where you just don’t feel like you’re going to make it to the next day where I grew up, because of everything that’s going on. Like I wrote on my shoes today, I thank M.J. more than he would ever know. I’ve got to carry it on to the next kid. Hopefully I can inspire the next kid.” need a win in the ﬁnal regular-season game and an extended run in the conference tournament just to get back to .500. “I tell them all the time, ‘Until you’re told you don’t have any more games, you get ready to play and you compete to win,’” Collins said. Statistically speaking Pardon was asked what stood out to him on the stat sheet, and the 6-foot8 senior looked past his impressive double-double: “For me, that we held them to 50 points. That’s something that we always pride ourselves on, playing defense, so I felt like we got stops when we needed to when they turned up the heat a little bit.” starters, with left tackle Thayer Munford remaining as the only player who started last season. Redshirt sophomore Josh Myers is the favorite to replace NFL-bound Michael Jordan at center. The defense returns nine starters to a squad that showed cracks last season. Hill, who chose to return for his ﬁnal season, said there aren’t a lot of immediate and obvious changes at practice, but the vibe is different with a head coach who turns 40 next week. Meyer is 54. “Coach Meyer, he’s old-school. Coach Day, younger,” Hill said. “Coach Day will talk about (the video game) Fortnite with us because he’s got a son, RJ — he looks up to us. (Day) knows a lot of the stuff we do, talks our language, stuff like that.” AP SPORTS BRIEFS Collins LeBron Day, he’s been in the NFL so he knows what it takes to get there,” Fields said. “Just the offense and how successful it was last year, I just hope to do the same thing again.” Fields is competing with redshirt freshman Matthew Baldwin. Day said the two are splitting reps with the ﬁrst team in spring practice. With running back Mike Weber leaving early for the NFL, J.K. Dobbins will get the bulk of the carries after splitting time with Weber last season. Most of the receiving corps that helped Haskins set records last season moved on, but there are proven players returning in K.J. Hill, Austin Mack, Bin Victor and Chris Olave. At least a halfdozen younger wideouts will push the veterans. The offensive line will be a question mark after the Buckeyes lost three Injured W. Va. guard James Bolden removed from roster The 26-year-old Johnson met with Buffalo on Wednesday. Johnson only played in Houston’s opener last season before he was placed on injured reserve after sustaining a second concussion. Injures have limited him to just 19 games over the past three seasons. The Texans selected Johnson with the No. 16 overall pick in 2015. They released him to avoid paying his $9 million salary for 2019. MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — West Virginia’s already thin roster has shrunk even further with the departure of guard James “Beetle” Bolden. Bolden, who has not played since late January with a sprained ankle, is no longer with the team. A West Virginia basketball spokesman did not elaborate Thursday when asked about Bolden’s removal from the roster. Coach Bob Huggins said last month that Bolden would miss the rest of the season. Bolden averaged 12.2 points this season. He is set to graduate in May.

That meant Spencer Dinwiddie. “He’s a speed demon. He’s a dragster out there,” Nets coach Kenny Atkinson said. Dinwiddie scored 12 of his 28 points in the ﬁnal quarter and Brooklyn zipped by the Cleveland Cavaliers 113-107 on Wednesday night. Atkinson has been encouraging Dinwiddie, who recently returned after missing 14 games with torn ligaments in his right thumb, to keep pushing the pace. “It’s hard to keep up with him and keep driving it to the rim,” Atkinson said. “So he did those things and I thought it was a game changer for us.” D’Angelo Russell added 25 points for the Nets, who put things together in time after Nets needed it however they could get it, knowing they have just two more home games this month, with a seven-game trip sandwiched in between. “We just tried to tighten up the screws,” Dinwiddie said. Kevin Love had 24 points and 16 rebounds for the Cavaliers, who had won four of six since that loss to the Nets in the ﬁnal game before the AllStar break. David Nwaba added a career-high 22 points. Cleveland outscored Brooklyn 65-49 in the second and third quarters and took an 85-80 lead into the fourth.

Clippers 37 29 .561 8 dropped last year for the ﬁrst time since 2010 and only the second time since 2002. What’s bothered the players, though, has been the slow market for free agents like Bryce Harper and Manny Machado. The lack of a bidding war for two of the game’s stars left them waiting until after the start of spring training for other offers. A couple of dozen other free agents remain unsigned, and some players and agents accused owners of colluding to keep salaries down. But Manfred preferred to look at the result: 10 years and $300 million for Machado, and 13 years and $330 million for Harper. “In case you missed it, we did spend 600 million bucks — 630 to be exact — on two players last week. Set some new records,” Manfred said in an on-stage conversation with Red Sox president Sam Kennedy. “Players are still getting these mega-contracts.” BOSTON (AP) — It’s not collusion, it’s a “distributional problem” that has shut dozens of baseball players out of the free agent market this offseason, commissioner Rob Manfred said on Wednesday. Speaking to a group of Boston business executives, Manfred said the percentage of revenue going to the players hasn’t changed in the past 15 years or so. If players are unhappy about how it’s being spent, Manfred said, he’s happy to talk to them about solutions. “The money that’s going for them in aggregate is the same,” he said at a meeting of the Boston College Chief Executives Club. “It may be that you (players) think some guys are getting too much, some guys are getting too little. You’d like to create additional opportunities. It’s up to you to explain to us what you’re looking for in terms of distribution of those dollars.” After years of growth, the total amount spent on player payroll Sacramento 32 32 .500 12 L.A.

Joe Harris followed with a 3-pointer, then Dinwiddie ran off seven straight points to cap the Nets’ 14-0 burst and make it 110-94 on his drive with 3:26 to play. “We needed stops. Teams get going like that — any team in the league can get going — it’s hard to stop the bleeding without getting stops,” Russell said. Brooklyn led 31-20 after one and pushed it to 37-22 with 9:45 remaining in the second when Russell was fouled shooting a 3 and made two of the free throws. But the Cavs charged back with a 22-7 run to knot it at 44, before the Nets regrouped a bit to bring a 55-50 advantage to the locker room.
