After a week off the court, the Cleveland Cavaliers will attempt to keep their perfect postseason record intact while shaking off the rust as they get ready to meet the Toronto Raptors in Game 1 of one of two Eastern Conference Semifinals set to be staged Monday night at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland.
Along with Golden State, the Cavaliers needed only four games to dispatch the Indiana Pacers in round 1, although unconvincingly unlike the Warriors, while the Raptors, forced to resolve some early inner-team conflict, rectified the issue by winning three straight to beat the young and pesky Milwaukee Bucks in six games.
The Cavaliers beat the Pacers by an average of four points a game which is hardly the stuff of Champions considering the Pacers barely made it to the postseason. They certainly benefited from the extra time as they entered the playoffs huffing and puffing with four straight losses to end their regular season.
This will mark the second year in a row that the two clubs meet in the playoffs with the Cavaliers beating the Raptors in six games in last year’s Conference Finals. The Raptors lost their four-game season series 3-1 to the Cavs but won their last time out in Cleveland in their final game of the season
Bovada has the Cavaliers listed as 7-point favorites and the game's total is sitting at 208½ according to MyBookie.ag
