Charlotte Bobcats vs Cleveland Cavaliers - Basketball - NBA - Tip Preview

Cleveland Cavaliers have been in devastating form so far, and they are on the verge of reaching their peak. They are only now missing one piece of the puzzle and that is the Big Diesel. The James Gang have covered the spread in their last 3, and have covered the spread and beaten Charlotte since 2007, 7 straight wins since then.

The supporting cast for LeBron has been doing well including Mo Williams, Ilgauskas, Parker, Hickson, Moon and Varejao. Gibson has been ever improving while Delonte West is still finding his stride.

The defense played by Cleveland has been a major factor in their success so far this season with a points difference of 5 between for and against.

Charlotte on the other hand are still getting used to establishing the rotation with Stephen Jackson entering into the lineup, although Gerald Wallace and Raymond Felton are slowly adapting him to the starting lineup.

Charlotte managed to beat 2 poor defensive teams in Toronto and Indiana in their last 2, but Cleveland are a different kettle of fish.

Cleveland should win this game and cover the spread.
