Tonight's matchup should be a great one for Blazers fans. Portland has been on a nice enough run of late -- nothing to write home about in terms of streaks, but all the same they are looking like a legitimate team that will make playoff noise. So when the Cleveland Cavs come to town, arguably the hottest team in the league over the course of this season, it's a great opportunity to test those playoff ambitions.

Where to stay tuned to read up on the LeBron v Blazers fest? BustaBucket has a nice preview here from the Blazers perspective. Meanwhile the Cavs are always covered admirably by my good friend Carolyn over at cleveland.com's And One.

On the topic of And One, there was an interesting little tidbit about Trevor Ariza there yesterday. Specifically there was mention of his uncle being there for a matchup between King James and Ariza. That got me to thinking about the good old days of the Sydney Kings, when Ariza's father, Kenny McClary starred for the team -- that's right, the big fella was Ariza's dad. I still encounter some Aussie basketball fans who don't know that little factoid.
