*The Pacers come into Cleveland minus one Bipolar All-Star, but the depth that this team has can make up for some loses in the lineup... Rookie Danny Granger has stepped in nicely for Mr. Crazy..Cleveland Cavaliers (15-9) VS Indiana Pacers (15-8)

LePiP's Tips for a Victory
*Contain Tinsley... Sure, O'neal is the All Star, but Tinsley makes this team go... He penetrates well, and can hit the outside shot...
*Keep them off the glass... No need to give a good team a second chance to kill ya'...
*"Z" is finding his groove, so if that holds true, he can get anything he wants.. Get the ball to "Z" and get his man in foul trouble...
*LeBron should be able to dominate a Artestless Pacers team, not only should it help LeBron, but Larry now can step in and drive against a lesser opponent offensively... Hopefully all is well with Larry, and he can focus at the task at hand...
*Keep up the solid floor spacing for the perimeter threats... That has looked great as of late, so hopefully we can keep it up...Back 2 Back divisional wins is huge for this team...Get out and run on these guys...
Even without their all NBA DEFENDER, the Pacers still play 'stingy D'
