The Cavs are on a 9 game losing streak playing in Boston. Can they finally snap it? Tipoff 8pm on TNT.

Yep.

I think we're going to see the guards step their game back up in this game and the Cavs will win comfortably. That's the only thing that has been lacking since the AS break. If they play like they were earlier in the year, Jamison keeps getting more comfortable, they're just about unstoppable.

A loss here cuts the lead to 4 over Boston with a probable tie breaker loss to the Celtics should they tie.

March will be a lot better for the Cavs could see a 16 and 1month coming.

I look for a high scoring first half and a really low second half...as both teams have been playing well defensively in the second halves lately.

Would like to see Andy get 33 minutes and Hickson with 14. And if Mo continues to struggle, then get Boobie back in there. I also hope that KG or Perkins doesn't eat up Jamison on the low block. That shit needs to end.

Boston will be missing Paul Pierce and we should be looking for payback from the opening game..

Should be a great one either way.. The refs will keep Boston as close as possible. (sorry, but I feel the home court advantage at the Garden is greater than any other)...

Boston has had its struggles this year at home for some reason and I have no idea why. This will only be the second game with Nate Robinson in the lineup. Just as we got healthy a freak sprain on Paul Pierce's hand comes up and bites us. Which means more Marquis Daniels and Tony Allen tonight. Ray Ray has been hot the past few games after the trade deadline which has been a welcome surprise. We need Perk to stay out of foul trouble and the bench to step up. For the LOVE OF GOD Sheed needs to stop taking so many 3's 50% of his shot selection has been beyond the arch. Whenever he posts up down low he is still VERY effective. KG also looks to be getting back in shape and running the floor pretty good. I just wish both teams were fully healthy for games like these.... It's at home & I know we still got talent so looking forward to seeing what kind on energy the starters bring b/c they have been lacking it to begin games recently at home. Go Green!
