Lebron and the Cavaliers host the Nets Thursday in a game that still means something for both teams. The Cavs are a half-game back of the Bulls for the second seed in the East while the Nets are a game and a half back of the Wiz for the sixth seed. The Cavs have garnered a lot of criticism lately for their lacklustre play in the face of the Bulls' challenge and James has taken some of the heat. For the Nets, the return of Richard Jefferson may mean the "Big Three" are back and ready to roll.
