Darius Garland’s Cleveland Cavaliers (36-7) hit the road to match up with the Philadelphia 76ers (15-27) at Wells Fargo Center on Friday, January 24. The tip is at 7:00 PM ET.The Cavaliers

The depleted 76ers' season is spiraling out of control, and the last thing they need is a matchup with the class of the conference in the Cavaliers. Look for Cleveland to keep Philly's offense contained.

Philadelphia is on a 7-game slide. If the season was not already a lost cause, it certainly is on the brink. The Cavaliers come to Philly following a rare loss, 109-108, on Wednesday to Houston. Darius Garland had 26 in the loss.

Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about Ichiro, C.C. Sabathia and Billy Wagner getting elected to the Hall of Fame, the Dodgers introducing Roki Sasaki and the Braves solidifying their lineup and outfield by signing Jurickson Profar.

The Cavaliers, who come into this game with a staggering NBA-best 36-7 record, have the top offense in the league, scoring 127.1 points per game with a 120.9 offensive net rating. Cleveland torched Philadelphia when they faced off last month, winning 126-99 while resting its starters for large parts of the fourth quarter.

After a brutal three-game road trip, the Sixers will return home on Friday night as losers of seven contests in a row. Things will not get any easier, as they will face the Eastern Conference-best Cleveland Cavaliers, who trashed the Sixers in Cleveland last month.
