This game sees the 8-9 New York Knicks take on the 14-3 Cleveland Cavaliers at The Quicken Loans Arena. New York Knicks C David Lee PF Al Harrington SF Wilson Chandler SG Quentin Richardson PG Chris Duhon (P) Key Bench Players: Tim Thomas, Anthony Robertson @ C Zydrunas Ilgauskas PF Ben Wallace SF LeBron James SG Delonte West PG Mo Williams Key Bench Players: Daniel Gibson, Anderson Varejao, Wally Szczerbiak Cleveland Cavaliers Knicks' Keys to Victory Improve Rebounding Shoot well from the field Protect the ball Cavaliers’ Keys to Victory Play tight D Start hard, coast towards the end Rebound hard Prediction Since 2003, the Cavs and Knicks have met 19 times, with the Cavs winning 11 games (average of 97.9ppg) to the Knicks 8 (average of 93.7ppg). LeBron averages 26.9 points, 5.9 rebounds and 6.5 assists in his 17 games against the Knicks. The Cavs coasted to victory against the Knicks a little over a week ago with a 119-101 scoreline, in which LeBron played just 30 minutes and the bench got hefty minutes. The Cavs would thoroughly enjoy a repeat of that performance, and it does not appear unlikely, such is the standard of basketball that the Cavs have played recently. I can't see anything but a Cavs win tonight. 93-109
and the cavs embarrass the knicks yet again.......If the cavs stay healthy they're definitely a 60 + win team this year.....
