The Cleveland Cavaliers have continued their successful start to the year. They started their year with a 32-4 record which placed them in the Eastern Conference’s pole position with a 5.5-game cushion. The only team to near this record are the Boston Celtics who are 5.5 games back at 27-10. However, despite their achievements, the betting markets are still sceptical about Cleveland.
The Cavaliers made mincemeat of the Oklahoma City Thunder recently, as they took their winning streak to 11 matches on Wednesday night. It was a 129-122 barnburner, and Cleveland covered as 2.5-point home favourites.
Betting On The Toronto Raptors
- 1XBet Moneyline: 2.715
- 1XBet Spread: +5.5
- 1XBet Over/Under: Over 231.5
The Toronto Raptors and Darko Rajakovic have had a horrible start to the season, as they are now 8-29 after a 112-98 loss to the Knicks on Wednesday night. The Raptors have lost 14 of their last 15 matches, which contains three successive defeats. Before losing to New York, Toronto lost to the Orlando Magic (106-97) and the Milwaukee Bucks.
Toronto’s 8-29 record is the second-worst in the Eastern Conference, this is next to the Washington Wizards who are 6-29. The Raptors ended Wednesday’s match against the Knicks as 12.5 point road underdog, and couldn’t cover the spread in the 14-point defeat.
MatchPlug Prediction Cleveland Cavaliers VS Toronto Raptors
The Cavaliers excel in offensive (120.0) and defensive efficiency (107.1). Given this record and the fact that both sides play at a high pace, there is a chance for Cleveland to cover the spread. Take them over the Raptors.
Final Prediction: Cleveland Cavaliers Spread.
