    Yes they will all play but how much is the question?

    "If LeBron plays, we have a better chance of winning," coach Mike Brown said, adding that he sees Friday as the more likely day to seriously limit his starters' minutes. "But I'm not going to compromise any of my guys just to get a win."

            still wouldn't touch this one

            what would be the incentive of lebron playing 30+ tonight?

            dont say the scoring title

              coach of the year, keeping the Bulls out of the playoffs is the biggest factor. Raptors are a walkover with Bosh out.

                  yea i dont see how trying to avoid a first round matchup with the bulls is their motivating factor, dont create big matchup problems

                      this has nothing to do with who to bet... im just saying previous reports were that lebron would sit....and he's not. the end.

                        Lebron (and all starters) are playing tonight and many will get tomorrow off. While I don't think the Cavs are exactly scared of the Bulls, they probably prefer the Raptors make the playoffs. The Raptors don't play any defense and the Cavs can dominate them as they wish.

                        That being said, I doubt anyone on Cleveland goes anymore than 80% effort tonight.

                          All you're newsflash is saying is he will start. No doubt, he will start. But will not play long. That's what has been reported all along. Starters always start, hence the word start in starter

                              Didn't Lebron play 37 minutes against the Raptors???? We were all questionning how many minutes he would be getting then too.

                              I think the cavs will want to win this as it may be a 1st round opponent. If they 'let' the bulls win it will give chicago some unneeded confidence so why not blow them away tonight?

                                Cavs would not be getting +2.5 if Lebron was playing 38 minutes

                                Stay away from this game

                                  with Bosh out for weeks the Raptors look like an ez 4-0 series for the Cavs, while the bulls could hang around and win a game, maybe even 2...........i bet they try and beat the bulls tonight and give lebron the next game off

                                    Is 80% effort enough to beat this Bulls team going at it 100%? Its really a toss up.

                                            Are you guys old enough to remember when Cleveland was -5.5 against Toronto, then played normal and won by like 15?

                                                Hmmm gosh I guess it would not be a shock but I really don't know how true that is.

                                                I know a cool chic that bar tends at one of the clubs in downtown Cleveland and she told me he NEVER drinks. She said he just hangs out and drinks coke and will throw down $20 every time he gets one. She also says the friends he brings are thugs and get trashed and don't tip at all. lol

                                                        Let Lebron try and get the scoring title. Let him play selfish and not as a team, the more selfish he is the better chance Bulls have winning.

                                                          We aren't talking about Kobe here.

                                                              Lebron is nothing like Kobe but if he is going for the title then let him shoot, if he's having an off night hten Bulls win.

                                                                I heard this on the news in Chicago on sports radio, one of the bars is called the District Bar. (You can call to verify.)
