<div align="center"></div> This game sees the 32-23 Cleveland Cavaliers take on the 26-28 Miami Heat at the AmericanAirlines Arena. <div align="center"><font color="#B94056"><u>Cleveland Cavaliers</u> C Zydrunas Ilgauskas PF Drew Gooden SF LeBron James SG Larry Hughes PG Daniel Gibson</font> @ <font color="#C43B3B">C Shaquille O?Neal PF Udonis Haslem SF Jason Kapono SG Jason Williams PG Gary Payton <u>Miami Heat</u></font></div> <u>Prediction</u> First of all, the absentees of each team should be addressed. Zydrunas Ilgauskas is listed as probable by CBS and deemed likely to play by the Associated Press. Damon Jones is a doubt with an illness, whilst Aleksandar ?Sasha? Pavlovic is definitely out. For Miami, the well-documented injury to Dwyane Wade will keep him out for a long time and Wayne Simien, too, will miss tonight?s game. Since the Class of 2003 entered the League, the Cavs and Heat have met 14 times. The Cavs have won just five games, averaging 91.8 points per game, whilst the Heat have won nine times, with an average of 95.2 points. It should be noted, however, that the Cavaliers are 5-2 in games in which they have tallied 90 points. LeBron James averages 28 points, 5.5 rebounds and 7.7 assists against the Miami Heat. Without Dwyane Wade, the Heat lack an integral part of their team. Therefore, their chances lie first and foremost with Shaquille O?Neal, but a wildcard factor for them is the recently crowned three-point champion and former Cavalier Jason Kapono. If he heats up, the Cavaliers could struggle to stay in contention. That being said, so long as Ilgauskas returns in decent form, the Cavs should be strong enough to defeat the Heat. <font color="#B90456">97</font>-<font color="#C43B3B">93</font>
LeBron didn't play well at all he had 29 points after taking 22 shots and taking 12 free throws, Miami defense was great today though.
