Expert Score & Prediction

The Cleveland Cavaliers are going to be awfully irritated following blowing the big lead in Game 3. Now, the Cavaliers are going to have to go back to Boston, a place they didn’t really want to go. Look for the Cavaliers to come out and play better, and stay better in this game on Tuesday and win easily. The point spread is still too high. The Celtics not only covered the large spread in Game 3, but won the game outright. Now, Boston is going to cover the spread again, but this time Cleveland wins. The final bet for this game is the Cleveland Cavaliers -14.5 over the Boston Celtics on Tuesday.
