That's right Portland fans, King James is in the house. The "other" number 23 is warming up and already impressing Rose Garden fans with acrobatic dunks and a funky, high-arching three-point swish. It seems the young phenom knows that he's a big reason why their wont be any tickets at the box office by tip-off tonight, and he's already begun the show they've come to see.

In his second year, James notched his first triple double in Portland, January 19th -- almost two years ago to the day. Sort of a a scary omen... But townight will be different as almost the entire Trail Blazers roster is.

Ime Udoka will get the honor of trying to slow down James tonight, which may well be the most difficult assignment he's had all year -- and that includes taking on Kobe, Dwayne Wade, and many other elite NBA scorers.

The Cavs, whose starting lineups are being announced, have the best record in the Eastern Conference at 23-14.

In their first matchup of the season, Portland fell to the Cavaliers, 100-87 in Cleveland on November 15th. Last year the teams split their two games -- each defending their home court.

And we're closing in on the Trail Blazers chance to do the same again this year... But to do so, their going to have to pay EXTRA special attention to LeBron... Here we go.....
