* Third game into a road trip for Cleveland...after a disheartening loss in New York on Wednesday, we have time to regroup, crossing time zones (again) to Chicago.
* Chicago just had a big win against Detroit, closing the gap between the standings in the Central division even further. The Division title is within anyone's grasp, as the big three have all clinched a playoff berth and are vying for homecourt advantage.
-: lyXo's Keys to the Game :-
* Give Ben Gordon bad looks. He's a scoring machine, but that's all he generally does. Make him shoot bad shots, stop his attacks... he can slump, and when he does, he slumps bad.
* LeBron can't dominate this game... he has to get others involved in a team effort for victory. Deng has given him fits every time they meet, and this time should be no different as Luol is having a fine season.
* Outplay them. They're a good defensive team, we have to be great. They can light it up when they want to, we light it up every game. Intensity is key,
86-84 CAVS.
