The series is split 5-5, but the Cavs have the edge on average points as they average 99.8 to the Thunder's 96.3.LeBron has missed 2 games against the Thunder, and averages 29.1 points, 6.4 boards and 6.5 assists in the 6 games he has played. The Cavs played very well last night in New York, completely outplaying the weakened Knicks. It allowed them to play LeBron for just 30 minutes, so he will be fresh for tonight, if he is even required to play for much longer than 30 minutes. The supporting cast had a great night last night, as Delonte West had 16 points, Szczerbiak 15, Varejao 11, Hickson 10 and Ben Wallace had a great game with 5 boards, 5 blocks and a great number of intangibles. Cavs fans will be hoping to see more of the same tonight, a game where they build a huge lead early, and coast the rest. It might not be great to watch, but it is necessary for contending teams to have games such as these. 92-114
