Cavs should beat the Raptors -140 ( Don't fall for Toronto's home record)

Question

I hope I'm not missing something here. But is it just me, or does everybody else see a Cavs win tonight?

I know the Raptors are very tough at home (14-2) While conversely the Cavs are (11-10) on the road, and mired in a losing skid winning just 4 of their last 10 games.

If you know the history between these two teams however, you will know the Cavs have had Toronto's number in years past. At Home or on the road. And this is virtually the same roster minus Kyrie Irving but with more depth.

The Raptors are down 2 key players in Lowry and Ibaka, and you know what that mean....

Lots and lots of Derozan.

Problem is Cavs will likely key on this like they have in the past and force others to beat them.

Unless JV or someone else like Powell go off for 30+ I just don't know if the Raps have enough talent to hold off Lebron, K love, Thomas, Wade and the guys...

And I'm a Raps fan saying this..

I think Cleveland will win straight up on the road here tonight.

Also keep in mind the true elite teams of the league.

G state, Houston, Cleveland, Boston.. ( But mostly Cleveland and G state are notorious for pacing themselves throughout the season).

It's not uncommon to see them play down to their competition and lose games they should win. It's also not uncommon to see them play up to their competition to set the tempo for a potential playoff matchup verses their given opponent that night.

Simply put.. These teams know they are good enough they can coast through the regular season

pick their spots.. and still come out with a top seed in their conference while resting key players for a playoff run.

Tonight is one of those nights I think you see what Cleveland is really capable of. Tonight should be a night they play Up to their competition.

I like the Cavs but the only way I am paying them is thru live betting.  Need to see how them play and hopefully they get down early.  12-27 ATS...Can't trust that loser team.  Regular season meaningless game to them.  Almost every January in Lebrons past 4-5 years...His team has gone in a major slump in January.  Everyone knows come playoff time they will amp it up.  Just can't trust them in January.

Lebron and the boys comin to make a statement! Regardless who on the floor for the raps. Lebron loves beatin the raps the past few years especially in toronto cause they been the biggest threat. Gonna slam cavs patriots ml parlay glta. Also big game for cavs in the standings. Reg season isnt big deal for lbj he picks and chooses his spots. If he cared much for the reg season hed have more mvps. I think lebron isaiah and kevin go off tonight these are the games they get up for, perfect spot
