3 Keys for Cavalier Victory:
1) Avoid Distraction- The trade deadline is only 20 hours away. Can't let that be in the back of your mind. Especially Wally, who will feel the most pressure, but we need him to perform at a high level.
2) Take advantage of new blood - Marion's first game. They're trying new stuff. Take advantage of weakness here.
3) Close out on shooters - This may change with Marion added to the team, but this team LIVES by the jumper. Don't give them the space to shoot. Besides Bosh, they have zero inside presence.
Ben Wallace - minus his Afro - is game-time decision for Cleveland Cavaliers

TORONTO -- Cavaliers forward Ben Wallace is listed as a game-time decision for tonight's game with the Raptors in Toronto, but fans will notice more than the wrap on his injured right arm.Following the lead of Allen Iverson, Wallace has cut his hair -- no more Afro, no more braids.
Wallace suffered a laceration near his right elbow while playing catch with a football over the All-Star break. The laceration required 14 stitches to close. He then had to have more glass removed in a separate procedure on Tuesday.
...Not sure if Bosh is playing tonight or not.
Cavs should start the final stretch with a big victory tonight.
Also Delonte West MAY get some tick tonight...
