The Brooklyn Nets (21-12) pay a visit to the Cleveland Cavaliers (22-12) on Monday as both teams are riding high right now. This will be the first time that these teams have faced each other this season.
The Nets come into this game on an eight-game winning streak and have won 12 of their past 13 games. Even though those accomplishments are impressive, Brooklyn has beaten only three teams recently with winning records. Those teams are the Atlanta Hawks (17-16), the Indiana Pacers (17-16) and the Milwaukee Bucks (22-11). With that being said, Brooklyn has been incredible offensively and that alone has allowed them to close out games when their defense has failed them.
The Cavaliers enter this contest having won seven of their last 10 games. They were on a five-game winning streak before losing to the Toronto Raptors on Friday. In the 2021-2022 season, the Nets won the regular-season series between the two teams 3-1.
