    <font color="Red">Preview</font>
    LeBron James didn't disappoint anyone who watched him go off for 34 points against the Magic on Christmas. But the 113-101 overtime loss that the Cavaliers suffered that afternoon in Orlando hasn't been the only disappointment endured as a rookie by the No. 1 draft pick, who turned 19 just before the start of the new year. Even after a trade in which they acquired Eric Williams and Tony Battie from the Boston Celtics and rid themselves of Ricky Davis, the Cavaliers remain unable to win with any regularity on the road and continue to languish near the basement of the Central Division.

    Sorry for the quick one, it's been crazy around here.


    Enjoy the game!

    That's koo. I can't wait for this one , If I'm not wrong this is their last one so I have a feeling this will be better than the X-Mas one , not to mention T-Mac has been struggling this could be the break out after this bad strech for him.

    Highlight Reel: Lebron turnsover the ball causing a fastbreak with tyronn lue. He throws off the backboard and T-mac tomahawk jams it in for a OT.

    If only, well. We can wait till tomorrow.

    lol I doubt it will happen like that if it goes to OT it will be the Cavs getting the last shot to tie the game.

    I like the Lue to T-Mac off the backboard tho [​IMG]

    Nice to still see Kedrick Brown benched, he really needs an ego and confidence boost. He's capable of so much. I think Hunter and Zee will be major, Hunter was able to contest Yao twice in their battle against the Rockets. The Cavaliers have really brought their game together since their last meeting, though they might still be recovering from the bad Rockets game. Cavaliers by 5.

    Remember in his last game vs the cavs t-mac was on his way toward 60 he was 8 for 8 behind the 3 and dominating the cavs again, but he got injured. let's see what he does tonight.

    I see the Magic winning this one at the end of regulation. Tracy McGrady can have a great night from the 3 point line again tonight and I'll be looking forward to it after I watch the highlights(Can't see this one tonight). Tracy could have a carrer high tonight as welll its up to God,Him,and his teammates.

    Hopefully, the Cavs can hold McGrady under 35 in the first half this time around. He's absolutely killed the Cavs this year. Howard also seems to have outstanding games against Boozer who still struggles defensively against PFs who are more offensively minded and like to step out and hit midrange shots.

    Hopefully, we'll see Lebron and Tracy going at it back and worth like on Christmas day. Lebron struggled against the Rockets, but I expect he'll come out ready to go with a superstar playing acrossed from him.

    When its all said and done, I think the Cavs low post players will be too much for the Magic to handle. Z and Booz are the highest scoring front court in the East and the Magic don't have anyone that can physically match up aginst Z. I like the Cavs by 9.

    Oh man, T-Mac with the clutch pull up jumper and then the clutch foul shooting to tie the game and send it into OT.

    Let's go Magic...

    lmao I told my brother in time out that T-Mac was going to get fouled behind the 3-point line and make the 3 and win the game , I also said Boozer was going to run into him! but then I said nah LeBron is lmfao and Boozer actually did , he didn't make the 3 tho.


    EDIT: hehe is all good we need Okafor , as long as we lose all the games in OT and play good ball ... and once a time beat a good team...that's all I ask for as a fan this season since we need to "tank" this season to get a good draft pick..


    Final OT Score :
    Magic - 107
    Cavs - 102

    T-Mac 35 Pts , 8 Assists , 4 Rebounds
    LeBron 30 Pts , 3 Assists , 11 Rebounds

    LMAO, you guys still want to lose? Good game played by both teams, another duel between T-Mac and LeBron. That has been an amazing matchup for both meetings this year, but LBJ came on top tonight. Magic relied on McGrady to carry them, he could only do it for so long with his clutch shots, that Orlando had nothing left. Cavs should have locked it up in the 4th anyways...

    man I missed it I had B-ball practice I've figured out that any time the cavs play the magic it's a treat.It seems to bring the best out of T-Mac every time

    wtf? Only thing LBJ had more than T-Mac was like 8 more rebounds and T-Mac had more rebounds between the last 2 games than Lebron's 3 combined lol...T-Mac had 8 Assists , LBJ had 3.

    Anyways T-Mac had fun that's what matters [​IMG] , we don't want to lose but we don't want to get a lot of wins after this season and lose the opportunity to get a top 3 draft pick.

    ^ Yeah...that's the same mentality i had last year with the Raps. I'm still pissed that we didn't land Melo...what a letdown. Oh well, Bosh is still pretty good.

    T-Mac did not get fouled when he shot that 3, the ref just called a foul.

    Ref's tried to hand this game to ya, Cavs still got it done in a real barn burner.
