Scouting report

For the first time in three seasons, the Cavs will play a game without starting point guard Andre Miller, out with a dislocated shoulder. Miller had played in 185 consecutive games. As Coles takes over at the point, the Cavs will have to watch his minutes since he has had knee problems. . . . Nowitzki played only 10 minutes Tuesday against Portland after aggravating an ankle injury. But Nash picked up the offensive slack by scoring 39 points. . . . The Mavs easily defeated the Cavs 107-94 last month at Gund Arena.
