Both the Cavs and Spurs, who are usually among the top teams in the NBA, have been struggling lately as they head in to this match up. The Cavs are 1-5 in their last 6 with 4 of those 5 losses by double digits. The Cavs have been struggling so much that there has even been mumblings about Tyronn Lue getting fired. Spurs on the other hand are 2-4 in their last 6 and their usual home dominance was challenged by an 8 point loss to the Pacers in their last home game. Spurs will not have Pau Gasol for this game.
I think I'll go with the team more desperate for a win.
My pick is the Cleveland Cavaliers.
