Charlotte: Bernard Robinson, Tamar Slay <font color="blue">Street's Keys</font> * Attack the baskt!!! The Bobcats aren't a very deep team whatsoever, and with 2 guards on the IL, I don't think they will be able to come close to stopping us if we ger them in foul trouble. Especially early. * Contain Emeka, and Primoz. These guys are the heart and sould of this team, and basically the only scoring options, aside from Gerald Wallace. If we're able to double team them effectively or if Gooden and Z can stop them 1 on 1, this should be an easy game. * Good defense. The Bobcats don't have very many scoring options, so why give them easy buckets because of poor defense? Shut this team down, it won't be a very difficult task if we try our best. * Crash the boards!!! The Bobcats don't play very good fast break defense, so everyone needs to crash the boards and find the open man to start the break. Easy fast break points will cause an easy win. * Feed LeBron. How can anyone on the Bobcats team even come close to containing James? If James gets the ball early and often, this will be an easier game than it should be. * Don't underestimate the Cats. Every team in the NBA is capable of winning on any given night. FINAL THOUGHT : Finally, the Cavaliers are over the .500 mark, so let's keep it that way. These next two games against the Bobcats are very winnable games, all we need to do is excecute on the offensive end, and crash the boards and get into the open floor. Either way, as long as we play well, we should be able to win. Prediction: Cleveland wins, 93-82 Visit Real Cavs Fans
So far, this seems the cav's easiest game. It's these type of games that can test a borderline team the most. They can not over look it. That said, i like the cavs by 14. Okafor has been a surprise so far for the bobcats, if the quality gooden shows up tonight, it's a major blow out. I don't see anyone stopping Lebron, he should go off for at least 30. A win tonight and tomorrow will really help the confidence of this team, and give them one of the best records in the East. Cavs 99 Bobcats 85.
easy win for the Cavs as we expected. That makes it 5 wins in a row, and now it's time to head to New York and see if we can make it 6 in a row! McInnis- 18 pts 4 ast Lebron- 19 pts 9 ast 6 reb Gooden- 8 pts 9 reb Ilgauskas- 16 pts 6 reb Snow- 5 pts 7 ast Traylor- 6 pts 7 reb Also Dajuan Wagner played in his first game of the year, and ended up with 7 pts and 1 turnover in 6 minutes.
Why does it say OT on NBA.com? Oh well. Another win for the Cavs... Wait untill they play a half way decent team in NYK then we'll see how easy it is. The Cavs played well and I expected them not to lose to Charlotte. Expect a hard fought game in NY although I hope they lose I do wan't it to be a good game. It should be if both teams play to their standards.
The Cavs actually have played a half way decent team. I would call the Suns a decent team, and for us to win that game, we had to overcome a 15+ lead. I think we'll beat the Knicks, they're deep, but were just as deep. Should be a half way decent game.

If you check the box score, there are 0 points scored in OT for both teams. Also, if you read the recap, there isn't any mention of an overtime.
I think you guys are overlooking the second game with the bobcats. They play Charlotte again before the Knicks. I figure it's going to be a pretty easy win, but it's not something the Cavs should overlook.
incase anyone wanted too see it, here's the gif of the lebron james dunk. damn, he went so freakin high.
