Keys To Beating The Cavs Tonight - Stacey King

| | Comments (0)
Good evening from Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland. Tonight the Bulls look to win consecutive games and their first win on the road since November 17th, in Sacramento. Here are my keys to tonight's game...

- CONTROL THE POINTS IN THE PAINT
 In the Bulls' November 5th win in Cleveland they managed to win the battle inside by     scoring  38  points in the paint to the Cavaliers 36. This season the Bulls are 4-2 when outscoring their opponents in the paint.

- MAKE LeBRON BE A JUMP SHOOTER
 Limiting LeBron to shots from the perimeter will be a key to the Bulls controlling the paint.
James is shooting over 50% from the field, with a majority of those field goals coming
 from inside.
 
- FASTBREAK  AND PUSH THE BALL
The Bulls need to take advantage of long rebounds and push the down the court. This is another element that the Bulls won during their victory over the Cavs in November.

The Bulls return home for 11 of the next 14 games. The United Center has been friendly to the squad where they have gone 5-1 this season.  Make sure and watch the Bulls tonight at 7pm on Bulls Net airing on WCIU Channel 26.
