Cleveland goes on the road to face the Bulls in what will be a rematch from the game earlier in the season (which took place at the Gund). The Cavaliers are riding a winning streak and have established themselves as a strong home team. Now they need to win more games on the road to further establish themselves as a rising team in the East. Chicago always plays Cleveland tough and this is not a game to take for granted.



With the Cavaliers hitting the road for three games, will the good times keep on rolling or will the smiles be replaced with long stares?



The Cavaliers should continue to keep their eye on Hinrich because ever since the Cavaliers made adjustments (recently), Hinrich hasn’t gone off like he did in the past. If he has a big game, other Bulls will follow suit. The Cavaliers should focus on winning the guard match ups.

This is a game where nobody on the Bulls have any one who can gaurd either Lebron (he torched Deng/Nocioni last game) or Z (Z blasts Curry)

I see two man game between Lebron and Z all night long

The OUTLAW

I seem to recall Nocioni was primarily guarding Gooden and Deng was guarding LeBron. Chicago fans seem to think that Nocioni would be able to shut down LeBron by himself. That might make this matchup interesting to watch.

The OUTLAW

Uh oh, looks like our primary scorer of the reserves (tractor traylor) is out for 4 weeks or so with a broken finger. Good thing Harris and Varejao have been playing well lately. We need one more guy to step up off the bench however.

Well Diop is sitting down their waiting to get out their. But that does mean Anderson V. will see more time and i love to see that. Eventhough i dont like seeing Tractor get hurt b/c he brings the love and energy to the game.

I know its a 2 man game that could happen. But lebron-Jeff M.- Big Z....those guys need some rest........

Nocioni is an enforcer type defender, but Lebron didn't seem to have too much trouble when he was guarding him the last game and I was there live

Believe me, there aren't ANY Chicago fans (on these boards anyway) who think Nocioni can hold Lebron under 30 (by himself). He's a physical and active defender, but not at all able to stay in front of the elite swingmen of the league. Deng will probably get a lot of time on Lebron and do a respectable job for a rookie but still get beaten soundly. We might even have to dust off Adrian Griffin and give him a chance.

End of 1st

Cavaliers - 21
Bulls - 27

Chicago started well. Curry hit some shots early and the rest of their offense was on point. This game definitely will not be like the last game played between these two teams.

Larry Hughes for Retirement

Down 13 we better get some **** going. If i am Silas i let these "Pro's" figure out how to win without Lebron this is sick. Can we even function without him on the floor.

Halftime

Cavaliers - 44
Bulls - 54

Cleveland is lucky they are not down by 20 points the way they have been playing. I give credit to the Bulls because they look good. But from a Cavaliers standpoint, when the lead was around 17 points, that was worst I've seen this team look in a long time.

Pioneer10

Uuughhh goodbye first place if we keep playing like this.

Didn't know the Tractor meant so much to us

End of 3rd

Cavaliers - 62
Bulls - 80

Ouch. Nice block by James at the end of the quarter but that is perhaps the only positive for the Cavaliers the entire quarter.

LOYALTY

On a night when the Cavaliers are showing ZERO hustle, LeBron just made a Hella-Block on Heinrich to end the 3rd quarter.. MAybe that will energize the team. Win or lose, I can't stand watching a team that isn't putting out the effort. That was a good effort on the block.

Chicago is hustling Big Time.
