The NBA continues on ESPN tonight with a double-header.
LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers will head to south beach to take on
Dwayne Wade and the Miami Heat. In the second game Stephen Curry and the Golden
State Warriors will host Jordan Clarkson and the Los Angeles Lakers. Be sure to
tune in tonight starting at 8:00 p.m. E.T on ESPN.
Cleveland has won three times more than they have lost since
January. They continue to streak their way to the top of the NBA Eastern
Conference where they've slowly but surely become the fan and analytic favorite
going forward. Their 43-25 season record is a fruit we can judge in
righteousness, barring a late season collapse that is highly unlikely. The
tandem of Kyrie Irving and LeBron James has turned itself into the demise of
all opponents standing in the way. The Miami Heat may use the resentment built
towards LeBron's departure during the off-season to defend American Airlines
Arena tonight but the advantage there of does not put the Heat in favor.
Miami's 29-36 record still allows them a 9th seeding in the Eastern conference
as they look to push themselves into the playoff picture. They'll be looking to
prevent another set-back against a conference opponent having to intent of
slowing down.
CAVALIERS @ HEAT 8:00 p.m. E.T on ESPN
