Cavaliers Team Information Summary:
The Cavaliers currently have a record of 27 wins and 4 losses, ranking first in the Eastern Conference. They average 122.7 points per game, ranking second in the league, with the highest average shooting percentage and three-point percentage in the league. In their last game against the Nuggets, the team shot an astonishing 48% from three-point range, which is likely to drop in the next game. The injury list only includes Okoro, with all other players available to play. Seven players on the team have a three-point shooting percentage above 40%, with the lowest being Merrill at 35% and Mobley at 44%. In their last game, they defeated the Warriors 136-117, and although they will be playing away in the next match, they have a significant psychological advantage.
Warriors Team Information Summary:
The Warriors currently have a record of 16 wins and 15 losses, ranking ninth in the Western Conference. They average only 112 points per game, with their average points allowed dropping to 110. On the injury list, Poole, Moody, and Payton are questionable for the next game. The Warriors have been in poor form recently, narrowly winning their last game against the Suns by 4 points. Coach Kerr's player selection has also been problematic, as he benched Li Kyle and Looney in the last game. Currently, the Warriors' biggest advantage against the Cavaliers is rebounding, but this advantage would disappear if they continue to bench their big men. They have had very low shooting percentages in the last two games, but they are expected to bounce back offensively in their next home game.
