Good morning, it’s Sunday, February 1st. The [Cleveland Cavaliers](http://fearthesword.com) are 29-21 and play the Portland Trail Blazers on the road tonight. Cleveland lost to the Suns on Friday in a blowout defeat.
This is Cleveland’s final game against the Blazers this season. They lost their previous match to Portland 122-110 in December. Caleb Love and Shaedon Sharpe combined for 40 points off the bench in that one.

Battle for the MVP, anybody?
Nikola Jokic made his return from injury just in time for a showdown with the defending champions. He and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander have led the race for MVP all season and appear destined for another meeting in the NBA Playoffs.
The Thunder have the best record in the league at 38-11, while Denver isn’t too far behind with a 33-16 record.
