Red-hot Cavaliers take on Bucks
Nov 29, 2008 - 11:23 AM Cleveland (13-3) at Milwaukee (7-11) 9:00 p.m. ESTMILWAUKEE (Ticker) -- LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers take their offensive show on the road Saturday and will look to continue a torrid pace after a pair of blowout wins at home.
Cleveland goes for its fifth straight win and 13th victory in 14 games when it faces the road-weary Milwaukee Bucks.
For the second consecutive game, James was able to take the fourth quarter off as the Cavaliers cruised to a 112-97 win over Golden State on Friday. James scored 23 points in 31 minutes after playing only 17 minutes in a rout of Oklahoma City on Wednesday.
Zydrunas Ilgauskas had 21 points on 9-of-13 shooting and has scored in double figures in each game this season.
Cleveland is beating teams by an average of 18 points during its four-game winning streak, scoring 110 points or more in each game. The Cavaliers have topped 100 points in 11 of 13 wins.
Milwaukee concluded a four-game road with three losses, capped off with a 107-97 defeat in Detroit on Friday. Richard Jefferson and Ramon Sessions scored 21 points apiece.
In a league-high 12 road games, the Bucks are 4-8 and open a stretch of three-straight home games, the first time they've played consecutive home games this season.
The Bucks have been shorthanded for most of the season. All-Star guard Michael Redd missed his 14th straight game with a sprained right ankle against Detroit while Andrew Bogut missed his second game in a row with a bruised left knee.
