The Cavaliers had 11 turnovers for the game, but only three inthe second half and two overtimes.

Brown, who sent the game into the first overtime with a putbackwith 16 seconds left in regulation, scored 11 points with ninerebounds and six assists off the bench.


"I've been in a search mode," Cleveland coach Mike Brown said."I've wanted to try to give guys opportunities to play. I justfelt it was Devin's turn today."


Ilgauskas, who opened the second overtime by hitting his firstthree shots, added 11 rebounds.


"(Ilgauskas) really fed off LeBron," Brown said.


"I know where to put the ball to his hands so he's ready toshoot," James said.


In a back-and-forth affair that featured 21 lead changes and 14ties, Ilgauskas' third straight jumper gave Cleveland a 99-96lead with 1:28 left.


After a pair of free throws from Mo Williams, James drove thelane and scored to make it 101-98 with 26 seconds left. The22-year-old superstar then hit a pair of free throws and DanielGibson added another for the final margin.

"We did everything we should have done to win the game and it'stough when you play on the road," Redd said. "I'm not mad at ourteam at all. We played extremely well."


The Bucks have played nine of their last 12 on the road,including a five-game West Coast trip.


"We've played about as many road games as you possibly can playat this point in this season," Milwaukee coach Larry Krystkowiaksaid. "I know some of these (officials' calls) coming down thestretch, it hasn't been the most favorable for us."

The Bucks beat the Cavaliers, 111-107, in Cleveland on November20.


"We battled for almost five quarters and held them to 40-percentshooting," Krystkowiak said. "When we jumped out to trap(James) they spaced the floor pretty well, and we were slow ingetting to Ilgauskas, and he made a number of open jumpers."
