INDEPENDENCE, Ohio – LeBron James is not likely to miss any of Cleveland's playoff games because of his strained right elbow and bone bruise.
The Cavaliers say LeBron James was re-examined Wednesday night by team doctors, who took more X-rays and an MRI. The tests revealed the strain also a bruised bone near the elbow.
LeBron James will have daily treatments and another MRI next week. The NBA's MVP has been wearing a padded sleeve above his elbow, which has been bothering him for weeks. He said his elbow hardly goes numb.
The Cavs eliminated Chicago in 5 games in the opening round and begin their best-of-7 series against the Boston Celtics on Saturday.

NBA Regular season games don't matter much but do give teams a chance to get better feel of rival (though these teams already know each other inside/out). To be this close without Hibbert is the biggest takeaway for me. Looks like a seven game series to me.
