__________________ Game Facts ____________◘ Cleveland (57-16) has won by an average of 5.8 points in its last five matchups with Sacramento (24-49), and that figure is skewed a bit by the Cavaliers' 117-104 overtime victory Dec. 23 in which the Kings were outscored 13-0 after regulation. LeBron James had 34 points, 16 rebounds and 10 assists in that game and scored 51 in the previous meeting, a 126-123 victory that also went overtime March 13, 2009.◘ The Kings, could struggle to compete without Evans, who leads all rookies with a team-high 20.3 scoring average. He will miss his fifth straight game with a concussion and Sacramento has struggled offensively in losing the last three, averaging 83.3 points on 39.7 percent shooting. Sacramento could also be without second-leading rebounder Spencer Hawes, who left Friday's 94-86 loss at Boston with a lower back strain in the third quarter and did not return.◘ This will be Zydrunas Ilgauskas' first home game in his second stint with the club since he was re-signed Tuesday. Ilgauskas has five points and seven boards in two games since rejoining the Cavs, and the center keyed the December win over the Kings by making a career-high three 3-pointers in the final 2:11.And for the best part...

Looks like Varejao will be out of this game so we'll need someone like Hickson to bring some energy on the boards.

Last I checked he was listed as questionable. Did they change it to out?
I hope he does sit out. We should beat the Kings without Andy. He's been busting his ass all season with his high energy plays. He's needs a break to rest and recharge his body and heal his hamstring so he'll be 100% for the Playoffs.

CLEVELAND - What would have been a tough game at full strength just became a whole lot tougher.
Here are the Kings who won't play today:
Tyreke Evans (concussion)
Spencer Hawes (lower back strain)
Sean May (knee)
Francisco Garcia (sore wrist)
Jon Brockman (knee)
And by the way, Omri Casspi is sick, but will play.
This means Beno Udrih will likely play 48 minutes and Jason Thompson can't afford to get in foul trouble.
The only backup big man is Joey Dorsey. Donte' Greene has played power forward, but he'll be needed to play more in the backcourt today.
Please be gentle.

Jamison's shot is looking much better, I don't understand why we can't seem to stop anyone on defense however.

When did the Cavs ever play any defense in the first quarter?

This game is over. LeBron looks like he's getting into playoff form.

Well, we are playing the Hawks twice, and the Magic and C's within the next couple weeks. So he should be.
