CLEVELAND — For much of this season , the Cavaliers have been shorthanded due to injuries, clunky on offense and disappointing on defense. The Cavs have often lacked the requisite intensity and competitive level expected from a team with legitimate NBA title aspirations.

The season is still young, but the Cavs are tired of failing to click. They will have a chance to build momentum in back-to-back home games on Dec. 5 and Dec. 6 against the San Antonio Spurs and Golden State Warriors , both of whom are banged up like Cleveland.

First up is a date with the Spurs. Tip-off for Cavs (13-10) versus Spurs (15-6) is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. at Rocket Arena. Check back here for updates throughout the game.
