Gambling911.com has your Cavs vs. Celtics Game 3 NBA Playoffs betting line and a prediction from the folks at BetDSI.com below.
Cleveland Cavaliers 22-19 SU, 18-23 ATS on the Road
The Cleveland Cavaliers were definitely nothing special on the road this season with 22 wins and 19 losses and against the spread they were a losing proposition. The Cavaliers average about 103 points per game and allow 99 points per contest so they don’t have a great scoring margin. They have been a decent team to bet under the total on the road with 22 games going under, 18 going over with 1 push. This will be the first road playoff game for the Cavaliers with this group of players so they may struggle in the early part of this game on the road in Boston.
Boston Celtics 21-20 SU, 22-18-1 ATS at Home
The Boston Celtics were a decent bet this season at home with 22 wins against the spread and 18 losses with one push. The Celtics average 101 points per game and allow 101 points per contest. They usually play well in front of their home fans and stay competitive in most games. They went over the total 22 times at home with 18 games going over with 1 push. Boston will be trying to win at least one of the two games at home so they can send the series back to Cleveland for Game 5.
