  Cavs take this one. As far as I remember, Cleveland really never loses a game to a team they aren't suppose to.
• hangonsloopy

  

  They have lost quite a few they shouldn't have this year. Unlike last year they are winning the games against the quality teams. I'll take Cleveland tonight though.

  Yea they've lost a few they definitely shouldn't have...raptors, bulls, wiz, bobcats, the grizz. They're not blowin these lousy teams out like last year, they're scraping by them, but winning the games against the top level teams, like as said earlier, is all that really matters.

  Cavs should role. Pacers are really starting to give their young players a chance. Hibbert has been playing very well this year, but I think Shaq will get him in foul trouble in the first quarter.
  
  Outside Granger, the Pacers dont have a game changer. The fact that AJ Price is getting big minutes shows where this team is at right now...

  LBJ for 47 tonight. The Pacers are the saddest organization IMO. The record doesn't show it, but I hate how they run their show. They're notorious for not playing players they don't want anymore. Each year I feel like another front office could get a lot more out of their teams than the actual front office guys could.

  Cavs win 132-68.

  Lakers pretty much dominated the 2nd half of the game on Wednesday. I expect much of the same from Bron and the Cavs tonight. Close, hard fought first half and then the 2nd half will be ALL Cavs.
  
  Cavs 107-86

  I'm hoping LeBron goes for about 18-5-4 and a lot of rest in the 4th.
• devil1197

  Exactly, I'd rather have LeBron resting up 20 in the 4th with him having 12 points.
• ytownfootball

  

  Lots of action going to go thru Shaq it looks like.
• devil1197

  ytown, expect a lot more come playoff time!

  Cav's lighting things up, up 36-18 after one
  
  LBJ with 9 assists
• Lovejoy1984

  

  Lebron may not play much more than a half today.
• ytownfootball

  

  Shaq is schoolin' hard...
• Lovejoy1984

  

  Cavs up 47-24 with 9 mins left to go.
  
  Shaq is playing like a beast!
• ytownfootball

  

  Cav's win it going away after a torrid first quarter, 94-73
  
  LeBron
  
  23 pts.
  9 rebs
  13 asst
  5 blks
  couple steals
  
  Shaq was dominant, he schooled Hibbert badly and had him in foul trouble early
• dave

  Crazy rebounding numbers for the cavs. 19 assists and 20 turnovers is not good though. Cavs should win out til the break but my guess is they drop 1.
• karen lotz

  

  61 total rebounds for the cavs right? Some pretty bad shooting from the Pacers. ESPN's boxscore has LBJ at 23/10/13/4/2.
  
  Also, that was about the best Shaq has looked all season, granted he was going against guys like Troy Murphy and Dunleavy
• ytownfootball

  

  23 is right I was wrong on that, unless they changed his rebound total though, he was one short of the triple double.
• SQ_Crazies

  

  Bottom line of ESPN said triple double for a minute and then when it came back around it said 9 boards.
• karen lotz

  

  yeah but who knows on the other totals...halfway through the 4th quarter the Indiana scorekeeper had credited LeBron with only 1 block, even though he had 3 very clear blocks. I could see them being off by a rebound or two. Either way he had a good all around game, minus shot selection and the resulting shooting %
• ytownfootball

  

  The hi-lite blocks showed 5, he did have another that was called goal tending, but that would have made 6. The boards at 9 will stand.
  
  Good night though, turnovers really sucked by I attribute that to being up so much for so long.
• SQ_Crazies

  

  The one block that was called goal tending was definitely clean too.
• ytownfootball

  

  I thought so, it was close, well, just as close as the one they let stand anyway.
