This game sees the 17-11 Cleveland Cavaliers take on the 18-12 Chicago Bulls at the United Center. <div align="center"><font color="#B94056"><u>Cleveland Cavaliers</u> </font> C Zydrunas Ilgauskas PF Drew Gooden SF LeBron James SG Larry Hughes PG Eric Snow @ <font color="#EE1C24"> C Ben Wallace PF Andres Nocioni SF Luol Deng SG Chris Duhon PG Kirk Hinrich <u>Chicago Bulls</u></font></div> <u>Prediction</u> Since LeBron James and Kirk Hinrich entered the NBA, the two teams have met 13 times, with the Cavaliers winning 9 of these games. They average 95.8 points per game, whilst the Bulls average 90.8. LeBron James, alone, averages 26.2 points, 5.8 rebounds and 7.3 assists per contest. It should be noted that, in this game, Ben Gordon and PJ Brown for the Bulls and Donyell Marshall for the Cavaliers, will receive a lot of floor time and therefore will play a prominent part in the game. The Cavaliers have been little short of awful on the road this season and, despite the statistics showing that it should be a fairly equal game, I see the Bulls winning by in excess of 15. <font color="#B90456">85</font>-<font color="#EE1C24">101</font>
LeBron hasn't really been too offensive minded this season, and it really pisses me off. He isn't the dominating player he was and I blame it on all the partying he does at local clubs. His entertainment life is starting to really take over his basketball life, and I hope he snaps out of it soon. And this loss to Chicago was pathetic.
