The Cavaliers come into this game with a strong record of 8 wins and 3 losses. Their recent performance on November 10 against the Sacramento Kings was impressive despite falling short by seven points in a high-scoring affair that ended 127-120 in favor of the Kings. The Cavs showed their offensive prowess by shooting over 53 percent from the field and an equally impressive 42 percent from beyond the arc. They also dominated on rebounds with a total of 51, outrebounding their opponents significantly.


However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for Cleveland; they turned over the ball eighteen times and struggled defensively, allowing Sacramento to shoot over 52 percent from the field and an astounding nearly 44 percent from three-point range. This defensive lapse could be a point of concern when facing a Warriors team known for its sharpshooting abilities.


Golden State's home advantage at Chase Center cannot be overlooked either. The venue has been known to energize home players while posing an intimidating atmosphere for visitors.


The Cavs' bench will need to step up as well; they contributed only nineteen points in their last outing compared to forty-three from Sacramento's reserves. Depth could play a crucial role in this upcoming contest.


Looking back further into Cleveland's games provides more insight into their capabilities this season. On November 8 against LA Clippers, despite scoring an impressive one hundred seventeen points, they lost by two points in another close match where lead changes were frequent – seventeen times throughout that game alone.


On November 6 versus Los Angeles Lakers, however, we saw what Cleveland is capable of when firing on all cylinders – securing victory with one hundred fourteen points while holding Lakers at bay with solid defense reflected by six blocks and seven steals leading them towards victory.


In conclusion, if CLE can tighten up defensively without compromising their offensive flow and get more production from their bench unit – they stand a good chance against GSW who will certainly put up resistance especially on their home court at Chase Center.


Fans eager not to miss any action can catch this exciting matchup live on NBCS-BA or BSOH depending on your location or tune into channel numbers six hundred ninety-six or six hundred sixty respectively come game day: November twelve o'clock sharp PM Pacific Time (PT).
