The Los Angeles Clippers are coming off their best performance of the season, but a blowout win over the Trail Blazers doesn't erase their first two sluggish games. The Cleveland Cavaliers are still a rebuilding squad that's hard to trust most nights, but they're coming off massive wins over the Hawks and Nuggets, wins that show a feisty, competitive bunch that's not going to lay down. You have to be impressed with what you've seen from the Cavs through four games. Give me the points and the road team.
