Historic meeting

Cavs blog by Bob Finnan

Just before the first half was to begin, Cavaliers forward LeBron James walked across the Amway Arena court and shook hands with golfer Tiger Woods.

Even though the two stars are the top two henchmen for Nike, it was the initial meeting of the two megastars.

"It was the first time I’ve met him," James said after the game.

Someone asked if he watched Woods play much.

"Of course, how can you not watch Tiger Woods play?" he asked.

Woods is coming off a win at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in Bay Hill Club in Orlando.

Besides both being paid millions of dollars by Nike, the two superstars have something else in common.

"We have the same birthday, too (Dec. 30)," James said.
