Nov. 11: Los Angeles Clippers @ Dallas Mavericks

Chances are, the Los Angeles Clippers are going to be favored in this contest. While the Dallas Mavericks should contend for one of the lower-four playoff seeds out West this season, the Clips are going to be contenders from the start of the year.

The catch? There’s going to be a lot of motivation for this Mavs squad to pull an upset following the drama that took place in free agency.

Following the debacle that was DeAndre Jordan’s free agency, the Dallas crowd (and players) will be ready to “welcome” Jordan “back”for the first time. This game is going to be on everyone’s radar when it comes to the national audience, but don’t be shocked if the Mavs rally and come up with a win despite the odds.

Dec. 25: Cleveland Cavaliers @ Golden State Warriors

Nothing screams national attention like a Finals rematch on Christmas day, and that’s exactly what we’re going to get during the 2015-16 season.

Assuming the Cavs are healthy, this will be one of their two chances to exact revenge on the Warriors. These two squad both look virtually the same as they did last season, so while Golden State will likely be favored, there’s a chance the Cavs could be rolling into the New Year on fire and with a surprise advantage.

March 19: Golden State Warriors @ San Antonio Spurs

A late-season game between two championship contenders? Yes please.

This contest between the Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs is going to grab headlines, as both teams are likely going to be fighting for the No. 1 spot in the league’s better conference at this point in the year.

The Warriors look largely the same as last season, which is understandable considering they took home the Larry O’Brien Trophy, but the new-look (sorta) Spurs are currently the No. 1 team from out West looking to take home the 2016 title, via Bovada.

Jan. 14: Cleveland Cavaliers @ San Antonio Spurs

The Cleveland Cavaliers and San Antonio Spurs are going to be two of the NBA’s title favorites throughout the duration of the 2015-16 season, barring an unfortunate injury situation.

Combine that with the fact that Kyrie Irving scored an unreal 57 points on the Spurs the last time he visited AT&T Center, and you’ve got a potential matchup for the ages, let alone a Finals preview, on Jan. 14.

Dec. 17: Oklahoma City Thunder @ Cleveland Cavaliers

The Oklahoma City Thunder weren’t anywhere near as good as they could have been last season if they’d just stayed healthy. Russell Westbrook missing significant time hurt this group’s championship prospects, and Serge Ibaka’s late-season health problems were what did in the team’s playoffs hopes.

[dfads params=’groups=63741&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

But Kevin Durant’s absence throughout much of the year is what really did this team in.

A healthy Durant and crew versus LeBron James? This is a contest even that most casual of casual fans can appreciate. And while the Cavaliers will likely be favored, look for Durant to exact a bit of revenge for the time he missed last season.
