Game: Cavs vs. Indiana Pacers
Broadcast: TV: FSOhio WAKR (1590 AM); WTAM (1100 AM), WHBC (1480 AM)
Starters: Cavs: LeBron James (F); Ben Wallace (F); Zydrunas Ilguaskas (C); Wally Szczerbiak (G); Mo Williams (G). Pacers: Danny Granger (F); Troy Murphy (F); Roy Hibbert (C); Jarrett Jack (G); T.J. Ford (G).
Injured and inactive: Cavs: Eric Snow, Tarence Kinsey, Delonte West. Pacers: Mike Dunleavy, Jeff Foster, Jamaal Tinsley. Officials: Joe Crawford, Bernie Adams and Eric Dalen Streaking: Cavs have lost one, as have the Pacers. Two things to look for:
- LeBron James on Danny Granger - James had a so-so game against the Los Angeles Lakers and will be looking to ''redeem'' himself.
- The Cavs interior defense took a beating against the Lakers. It needs to be shored up and fast. Lamar Odom loked like he was being escorted ot the hoop on many occasions Sunday.
From the coach's office:
Mike Brown on Mo Williams making the All-Star Game:
"It was great to be able to take that news to Mo Williams. That was definitely one of the highlights of my time here."From the locker room:
Mo Williams on making the All-Star Game:
It kind of worked out as a great situation. Obviously LeBron has been there every year supporting the organization. It says a lot when you have two players and the whole entire coaching staff. We’re battling injuries and still winning basketball game so that says a lot about the coaching staff and the players on this team.
