The Dallas Mavericks are on the end of a back to back, but it was a complete blowout victory, so they should still be fresh for this contest. The Cleveland Cavaliers still have some showing and proving to do, as they’ve been shaky at best these last few weeks and are losing their last five games by an average of 3.6 points while not playing a lick of defense. I’ve been riding the Mavs for a while. I’ll lay the buckets.
