Cleveland at Boston

The Boston Celtics have been no better with Jalen Brown in the lineup teaming with Jason Tatum, than they had been without him. Boston just lacks anyone else to go with them, so despite having two all-star caliber players, it has translated poorly at 16-17 on the season. Cleveland is a much-improved team over a year ago as the Cavs are 19-12 on the season. Over their last 12 games, they are 10-2 and have won six straight, and continue to make strides and playing at a higher level right now. The Cavs have allowed one team in their last 18 games to shoot 50% or better and by contrast, they have done so themselves in four of their last six. I think Cleveland has a very strong probability of winning straight-up here and I'll take advantage of the generous line. Make the play on Cleveland, moneyline.
