    Injury List

    Cleveland: Robert Traylor, Luke Jackson
    Minnesota: Ndudi Ebi
    <font color="darkred">Dealock's Keys</font>

    * We are up against the single most all around player in the league. Yes, I am talking about Kevin Garnett, some how we have to contain him. Expect more playing time out of Diop and Williams to stop KG.

    * Wally Szczerbiak, his been hot as of late, lets shut him down.

    * Our bench has to produce.. bottom line, can't depend on the starters all the time.

    * We need James to produce like he normaly does, if he has a bad game then we are basically going to be screwed.

    * Z must come out strong.

    * Losing 3 in a row always sucks.

    FINAL THOUGHT :

    This matchup is going to be very hard for our Cavs. We are facing one of the more dominant teams in the West. It will be hard but it can be done, if we want to be taken seriously around the league then these are games we have to win.

    Prediction: T-Wolves win 94-85

    I did not know Doc Rivers was coaching the Wolves. [​IMG]

    Should be a good game. I can't wait to see Lebron in action.

    The game is also an NBATV game so fans can watch it nationally.

    This will be a good game, but i want to know why they have Ira at SG? They should put Eric Snow at Point Guard and have Jeff at SG. That just seems like the smart thing to do, but they are a good team so they got to be doing someting good. I expect that the Cavs will win and LJ will do 22.8.6

    Good win for ya', boys. Bron was the freakin' man last night. EEEvveen though, I feel he got some bogus calls because they love him. [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] Kiddin' peeps. Good game and good luck in the future.
    Funny thing is last year there was this uproar of "Carmelo should have either been the R.O.Y. or had a piece of it". But now the only thing that Melo has done was twisted both ankles. [​IMG]
