Cleveland -5
Total: 198.5 points
Cleveland has been unstoppable so far in the post season, piling up nine wins after cruising in the opening two rounds of the playoffs. Now the Cavaliers have taken to the Raptors, a team making a team-first appearance in the conference finals.
LeBron James and the Cavaliers will be looking to win in a place where many haven't this season. The Raptors have put together a strong home record to date, posting marks of 32-9 during the regular season and 6-2 in the post season.
DeMar DeRozan and Kyle Lowry have had their struggles this post season, but even if they both play excellent games the Raptors are in trouble. Cleveland is playing at an extraordinary pace right now and getting solid play from Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love, when those two and James are playing well the Cavaliers are very tough to beat.
Toronto's first two losses in this series marked the first time this season the Raptors had lost two straight. They haven't lost three straight since mid-November, but with how Cleveland is playing now, it will be tough to beat the Cavs.
