Preview: Cleveland vs. Milwaukee

The Cavaliers have won eight of their last nine meetings against Milwaukee and six straight at the "Q". However, that streak seems to be forgotten, being that Cleveland is in the middle of a 14 game losing streak.  The Cavs have lost 24 out of their last 25 games.

Cleveland will try to break a 14 game losing streak tonight against the same team Mo Williams beat with a game-winning shot at the buzzer.  Mo finished with 25 points against the Milwaukee Bucks. Unfortunately, the Cavaliers will have a completely different look this time around.  Williams, the hero from the last time the Bucks came to downtown Cleveland, will be on the sidelines cheering.

The starting line-up will most likely consist of Ramon Sessions, Manny Harris, JJ Hickson, Alonzo Gee and Antawn Jamison. A completely different line-up from the previous meeting when Williams hit the dagger at the buzzer.

The bench must continue to play well; they are averaging 36.5 ppg, which is good enough for 5th best in the NBA. Two Cavaliers to keep your eye on tonight are Antawn Jamison and Ramon Sessions. Jamison has scored at least 20 points in six of the last eight games and Sessions has averaged 14.9 ppg to go along with 6 assists in his last 11 games.

Tip is at 7:30pm, at Quicken Loans Arena.
