James went 10-of-24 from the field, but was only 1-of-7 from three-point range and 60-percent from the free throw line.
He also grabbed 10 rebounds, eight assists and three steals in the victory, while Irving pulled down 11 rebounds for the Cavs.
Iman Shumpert scored 15 points and 10 rebounds and Timofey Mozgov finished with 12 points and 11 boards for the Cavaliers, who played without Kevin Love after the forward was forced to leave the game in the first quarter with a dislocated left shoulder.
Love picked up the injury during a loose ball tangle with Boston’s Kelly Olynyk, who grabbed on the shoulder of the Cleveland player, while leaning on his left arm.

James said the tussle “looked different.”
“(I have) seen a lot of tie-ups in my day, but that one looked different,” James said.
Love believes the move was intentional and added that such a challenge is only seen in “bush league.”
Jared Sullinger paced the Celtics with 21 points and 11 rebounds and Isaiah Thomas ended with 21 points and nine boards. Both players did so in reserved roles on Sunday.
“I like our progress but I like to win,” Boston coach Brad Stevens said after the defeat. “So I’m disappointed.”

J.J. Redick scored 17 points, Austin Rivers finished with 16 on 7-of-8 shooting and Jamal Crawford supported with 15 points in the Game 4 victory, as the Clippers responded from losing heavily in Game 3 on Friday night.
“Doc pretty much went at all of us,” Paul said. “He told us about ourselves and he told us what we didn’t do.
“He told us that when it comes to the playoffs, it is the players’ time.”
