Result:
LOSS

The last time these teams met, Cleveland won an overtime thriller 128-125 at San Antonio on March 12. This time the Cavaliers are riding an eight-game winning streak but they're coming off a draining overtime win at Dallas on Tuesday and this is their fifth road game in a row. LeBron James scored 27 points with 10 rebounds against the Mavericks and Kyrie Irving added 22 points, including a three-pointer with 13 seconds left that was the dagger. The Cavs shot only 41.2 percent from the floor after shooting only 38.9 percent in its previous game against Philadelphia. San Antonio is 22-0 at home and has won nine straight games overall, including 109-99 at Detroit on Tuesday. Tony Parker scored 31 points and LaMarcus Aldridge added 22 points and grabbed 13 rebounds. The Spurs held Detroit to 41.8 percent from the floor. The Spurs hold the statistical edges on offense and defense and certainly remember that overtime loss from last season. Play the Spurs for the cover.
