    Miami : TJ Ford, Mike James, Zendon Hamilton, Marcus Fizer

    <font color="blue">INFANTE'S KEYS</font>

    * Peremter Defense kills the Cavaliers. Put a hand in the face of every shooter threatening to hoist it.

    * Give the ball to the Lithuanian. Gadzuric is no match for Zydrunas' crafty offense.

    * If open, do not hesitate and shoot the ball. Too much thinking is going on before deciding on taking the shot and passing the ball. Stay away from buzzer beaters to beat the shot clock. Look for the 1st good open look and take the shot.

    * Big Drew, please box out Joe Smith. He will be all over the offensive glass if you don't grab him.

    * Mac, concentrait on running the team, not scoring.

    * LeBron must drive to the hoop at any given chance. Joe Smith and Dan Gadzuric will not be able to stop him, they will be forced to take him down with fouls and be content with sending him to the line.

    FINAL THOUGHT : Another opening day road game for the Cavaliers. After an exhausting game at Miami the Cavaliers had the day off to work on some things. I believe the Cavaliers will be more focused on winning this particular game than the other two. Milwakee is a beatable team for us, but we must not let their outside shooters get hot. They will be pumped up, attack early and take the crowd out of the game and it's ours.

    Prediction: Cavaliers 91 Bucks 87 in free throw mahem.

    LeBron should be able to blow up on Van Horn. Expect a big game from both Redd and James.

    We need to win this game, so it will give our players some confidence. We have lost 2 touch games already which we could've won...

    Yeah, I agree, Stang. We've played some tough teams thus far, and have stuck with every one of them. We still have 79 more games to raise our record and get to the playoffs, so I'm not the least bit worried right now.
