    Raptors/Cavs Game 5

    Can the Raptors hang here? If Cleveland starts knocking down shots again they could easily win the way they did in the first two games. With that said, the Raptors are doing a much better job with their rotations and closing out on shooters.

    Cavs are a 10.5 pt fave.

    Sad watching defense backing up on Lebron like they used to do to Mugsy. Daring him to shoot at the top of the key and Lebron showing the fear. If Lebron doesn't get some semblance of that shot back, then Tor can continue to play 5 on 4 defense. They have a shot.

    Cavs played better in game 4 than game 3 so that should give them confidence going back home. Everyone dumping on Love and company too....These guys know how to bounce back. Even if this goes 7 games, the winner of tonight's game wins the series. Yes Toronto is playing better but they are a different team on the road. The confidence in this city right now is 50/50 at best because until they see TO win a big game on the road, they know the result before it starts. DD/Lowry are also not going to get 30+ points each like they did in the last game too.

    Cavs are 46-4 since Lebron has been back when favored by at least 9.5 points.

    I'll take the ML of -750.

    I'm looking for a live Cavs position. Toronto looked lost during that 4th quarter last game.

    Same, no value in that line. Hoping to grab a nice live line.

    What are people's thoughts on the total?

    What's the record against spread though? Who cares about SU. Teams usually win games when favored by double digits, no surprise there.

    Total has dropped a lot. Looks like it's too late on that.

    Cavs spread for me. Might look at taking a Lowry under prop, we should get his typical bounce-back "i suck" game.

    I think Toronto has some serious confidence rolling into this game. It feels like it will be close.

    Free Money that you don't even have to sweat. 37-19 end of the 1st Q. Now I'm hoping Toronto gets back into it so I can put more on the Cavs ML, but they probably wont.

    81-46 damn...evidently Cavs -10.5 was not high enough. Since that line went to -11 by gametime, I'm thinking the books got smoked. Public money had to be on the Cavs tonight.

    I'm sure they've been cleaning up when Toronto won games 3 and 4 not to mention the OKC series
