The Cleveland Cavaliers have dropped five of their last six and won just three times in 12 games since Christmas. They're among the worst defensive teams in the NBA giving up 109.5 ppg and the 148 points surrendered against OKC on Saturday matched the worst in franchise history in a regulation game.

Such defending won't keep them in the game here against the best defensive side in the NBA as San Antonio is giving up just 97.5 ppg. The Spurs took a 94-86 loss against Indiana on Sunday but are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games following a straight up loss and 15-5-2 ATS in their last 22 games playing on one days rest. The Cavs are a pathetic 1-10 ATS in their last 11 road games.

The Spurs won both of last season's meetings, including a 103-74 triumph here at AT&T Center.

My NBA Game of the Month is a 10* play on San Antonio Spurs.
