?Built to Win? Cavaliers Look For Revenge Against Bulls <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Looking to avenge their 92-81 loss to Chicago on March 1, the Cleveland Cavaliers take on the visiting Bulls on Tuesday night at 7 p.m. EST. Cleveland (30-36) currently sits in the sixth spot, but just a half game ahead of New York and Toronto (30-37), who are both tied for seventh. The Cavaliers, winners of six straight, play their next four games at Gund Arena. The last time Cleveland won seven in a row was Nov. 21 through Dec. 11, 1997. On Sunday, the Cavaliers pulled off their biggest win of the season, a 107-104 triumph over the Conference and league-leading Indiana Pacers, in front of a sellout Gund Arena crowd. Indiana and Cleveland nearly matched each other offensively in every quarter, and both team played with playoff-like defensive intensity down the stretch. Cleveland led 88-86 at the end of the third quarter, and the fourth provided a dramatic finish. With the Cavaliers leading 107-104, Indiana?s Ron Artest launched a three-pointer with LeBron James in his face. The shot fell short as time expired. </div> <font size="1">Kirk Hinrich torched the Cavaliers for 22 points in the last meeting.</font> Full Preview
Game underway! Cavs starting Mcinnis, James, Williams, Boozer, Ilgauskas silas says ewill suffered a knee injury vs toronto, which was the reason for his ineffectiveness vs indiana
Dupree in early for the Bulls. This kid can score in bunches, so hopefully we are alert to that! 5-2 early Cavs.
man since when could mcinnis nail the 3 point shot? was he known to be able to do this in portland? 12-10 cavs edit: crawford 3 pointer: 13-12 bulls, then a z tip-in makes it 14-13 cavs
i love j-mac from 3 lately. something tells me he wants to stay in cleveland the way he's been playing.

Sit Z before he picks up 2 fouls. We've come out strong, but the Bulls are hanging in there. Bench needs to continue its contribution of late!
30/23 Cavs with with 1:48 left in first WOW... James got rejected on a monster dunk attempt on Curry, only to come down the floor next to give a super highlight reel pass to Boozer for a monster jam (props to Def Jeff for finding James to begin with)
WOOHOO, he is the CHOSEN ONE gentlemen. O BOY did joe love that one on the radio. i like what im seeing so far, but i agree the bench must continue to play well.
Time to intergrate the bench with the starters. Ollie, Battie and Nailon should come in! Nice finish to the quarter.
Now Bron takes the ball out of Hinrich's hands while he was shooting it, takes it down the court in traffic for a layup. James is ready tonight.
Cavs up 34/29 after one, James capped the quarter with a tough double clutching fade away jumper right in the face of Johnson. James has 8, 1, and 4 Z has 10 and 9 Boozer has 8 and 4 Williams has 5, 2, and 3 (great to see) Crawford off to a hot start himself with 9 in the quarter. Bulls only had one turnover in the quarter, we must force more.
Z has been absolutely ridiculous lately...i can't believe we (myself included) ever wanted to trade this guy. silas has turned him into a monster for us. cavs up 40/31
45/31 Cavs, timeout Bulls, 8:54 left in the 2nd Boozer just brought down Gund Arena with a massive tip dunk slam. Wagner has a fast 5 off the bench.
Cavs are sooooo dominant in the paint! They have 10 total boards. We have 9 offensive alone and 23 total. Nice little spurt from Wags
