The Cleveland Cavaliers have really turned things around, coming into Oklahoma City as winners of seven straight. All seven of those wins came against Eastern Conference foes though, and playing on the road out West against the Best of the Best, should prove to be a different ball game all together.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Defense - Playing without stars Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant might have been a blessing in disguise for the Thunder. They were forced to play defense in order to remain competitive, and the result is an opponent's scoring average of 94.4 points per game (3rd best in the NBA).

2. Russell Westbrook - He scored 28 points on 8-of-16 shooting in Tuesday's win over Milwaukee, and he's averaged over 26 points in his five games since coming off the DL.

3. X-Factor - The Thunder are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

Selection: This is a play on the Oklahoma City Thunder (10*)
