Also Monta Ellis will see his first game action of the season on Friday. Not sure if he'll start, but wish he would have waited one more game to make his return.

Ya I wish he wasn't making his return. We will have some problems with this game. The fast pace will wear down our short bench. I expect to see huge minutes from LBJ and Mo (40+) and a lot from Andy if he can stay out of foul trouble.

No one on are team can defend Lebron James, onces he makes his move to the hoop its over
the best thing to do is to keep the ball out of his hands

Ellis's return should have a big impact on the game wether its in a good way or bad that is not determined yet

I just remembered Crawford is with Golden State now... Cavs killer right there. I still expect us to win however.

Im glad we got the huge front-courts of the Lakers and Blazers out of the way. Now Cavs need to be ready for Warriors run'n gun small ball.

It would be nice to build a big lead so the starters dont have to play a lot of minutes since they play the Jazz tomorrow night. While the Jazz get the day off today.

Plus Lebron has played 40+ minutes for 5 games in a row now.

I predict Crawful goes off for 59 points.

That guy ALWAYS kills us.

I wonder if Biedrins will still be out. If he's out, we will win for sure.

God I hope not, He will probably take 100 shots to get to 59 points and shoot a low %.

what annoys me is that the Lakers (much like golden state last year) has prevented us from sweeping California. We haven't have a Cali sweep in 2 years now. I kinda miss them.

People don't seem to understand that Crawford is better against the Cavs than anyone except maybe Pau Gasol. He's way better against the Cavs than Kobe tends to be.

Against the Cavs, he will probably be shooting a pretty high percentage.

Hopefully this game goes fast. Don't normally hope for that but these west coast gametimes wear me out for the next morning and I've got work tomorrow. I'm expecting a big game from AV, even if Biedrens is ready to go for the Warriors. Going to need to shoot the ball well from 3 point range tonight as well.

Mo coming out ice cold shooting tonight, 0-5 so far. Really the whole team seems short on their shot(minus Sasha). Good thing the Cavs are getting alot of offensive boards so far to keep it even on the scoreboard. Need to try to slow this pace down a little bit if possible too.

Getting outplayed so far, lucky it's only a 5 point game. Not sure how much longer Mike Brown can afford to keep LeBron on the bench and its early in the second quarter. Mo is playing like crap tonight, 0-7 now. We need Gibson to pick up the slack.
