Lowry made just eight of 28 shots, going 1 of 15 from long range, in Games 1 and 2 at Cleveland. Both were blowout wins for the Cavaliers and they started the postseason 10-0, two shy of San Antonio's NBA record set in 1999.

''We've got to go out tomorrow night and hold down our fort,'' DeMar DeRozan said.

''They've done a good job of collapsing and getting the ball out of my hands,'' Lowry said about Cleveland's efforts to contain him. ''I'm making the right passes, we just haven't made shots. I think we'll make shots tomorrow. It looks a lot different when we make shots. Assists go up and turnovers go down.''
