Past the halfway mark in the NBA season, a general idea of the playoff picture is coming into focus. The Cavaliers are struggling in the East, and the Rockets have emerged as a contender against the Warriors in the West. The Pelicans have been one of the surprises of the league so far, with Anthony Davis and DeMarcus Cousins dominating in recent weeks.

The best games this week include an interesting West matchup between the Pelicans and the Rockets. Meanwhile, the Celtics vs. Warriors will be a showdown between two of the best teams in the league, and the Cavaliers try to get back on track vs. the Spurs.

Cleveland Cavaliers at San Antonio Spurs

Tuesday, Jan. 23, 8 p.m. ET on TNT
A crushing home loss to the Thunder in which the Cavs allowed 148 points showed that things are unraveling in Cleveland. If the Cavs can get a win on the road against the Spurs, who stand third in the West, it might show that LeBron James and Company can pull it all together by the playoffs. Either way, this game should generate plenty of storylines.

Houston Rockets at New Orleans Pelicans

Friday, Jan. 26, 8 p.m. ET on ESPN
The Rockets' win over the Warriors in Houston on Saturday showed the team's defensive ability combined with the scoring burst from star guards James Harden and Chris Paul. They will face the Pelicans' loaded frontcourt, with Anthony Davis averaging 29.1 points and 11.9 rebounds per game in the month of January.

Boston Celtics at Golden State Warriors

Saturday, Jan. 26, 8:30 p.m. ET on ABC
At this stage of the season, this matchup could very well be a Finals preview. Kyrie Irving and the Celtics are still atop the Eastern Conference, while the Warriors are on top of the West. The Warriors' loss in Houston snapped a 14-game road winning streak, but Steph Curry is still in excellent form since returning from an ankle injury. Irving is averaging 24.5 points per game this season for the Celtics, who appear to be the team to beat in the East.
