Result:
LOSS

The Cleveland Cavaliers have a lot of talent on the court as LeBron seeks to bring an NBA Championship to Cleveland. The Cavs started slow, but the team chemistry is starting to shape up as they have won eight of their last nine, losing last night to a now healthy Oklahoma City team on the road. LeBron sat that one out with a sore knee, and is 50-50 for tonight's game in New Orleans. The Pelicans have held their own this season and come into tonight's game at 10-11. That looks decent, but their last seven wins have come against the Lakers twice, New York, Minnesota, and a then depleted Oklahoma City team, Sacramento, and Utah. Those teams have a combined 47109 record on the season, and with or without LeBron, Cleveland is a much better team than any team they have beaten over the last month. Make the play on Cleveland.
