Cleveland comes into this game having won four straight and six of their last seven.  LeBron has been carrying the Cavaliers recently as his scoring average is up to almost 30 points per game.  He is going to need to carry the load since guards Mo Williams and Delonte West are injured.

Miami has won their last two games but wins against Washington and Sacramento don’t tell you much. When the Heat have stepped up in competition this season they have not done well.  They will need a big game out of Wade and some supporting players like Michael Beasley and Quentin Richardson to step up.  Miami has a losing record against the pointspread at home this season at 11-12 but they have won and covered their last two home games.
