CLEVELAND — LeBron James watched as the Cleveland Cavaliers couldn't quite make history.
With their superstar, All-Star guard Mo Williams and other regulars resting for the playoffs, Cleveland lost for just the second time on their home floor this season, 111-110 in overtime Wednesday night to the Philadelphia 76ers.
That left the Cavs at 39 home wins — one shy of tying the 1985-86 Boston Celtics' all-time home record of 40-1.
Andre Miller scored 30 points and Andre Iguodala 24 for the Sixers, who snapped a six-game losing streak. Philadelphia earned the No. 6 spot in the Eastern Conference playoffs, where they will meet the Orlando Magic.
Daniel Gibson scored 28 for the Cavaliers, the No. 1 overall seed.
