Cleveland Cavaliers (2-4) vs Golden State Warriors (5-1)

The Warriors are off to an extremely impressive start to the season on the road, but this is a tough spot to be in after an emotional victory over OKC last time out. It was a virtual buzzer-beater for Steph and company as the Warriors improved to 4-0 on the road but now GSW has to face a really strong frontcourt here with Mobley and Allen leading the way for Cleveland. Donovan Mitchell had a nice bounce-back performance last game despite the Cavs' loss to Indiana. Cleveland as a team shot poorly in that game but I expect guys like Strus, Levert, and Garland to get going here back at home. Cleveland should have a nice advantage in the paint with GSW being one of the smaller teams in the NBA. Draymond Green is physical but takes a lot of fouls and other than him, I don't see anyone on this roster that can consistently go up against that two-headed monster in the Cavs frontcourt. I like the Cavs here.
