Matt Moore bet on Miami at -8.5 at open. He can't get to this number. The two-game set factor is a factor. Boston won the first game in Boston. Celtics when they play the same team within 3 days are 15-9 (63%) ATS in the second matchup, and 10-5 (67%) when favored. Celtics are 40-30-2 (57%) ATCS when the team is favored at home in first of two games in three days.

Cleveland Cavaliers have a point differential of +12.4 at home and +2.3 on the road. Home court advantage in the NBA is roughly 4.5 points.

Cavs are second in Adjusted Net Rating, per Dunks And Threes. They are favored by less than two possessions against the Magic, 27th. Orlando is without starting center Wendell Carter Jr., Jalen Suggs, and Mo Bamba.

Orlando Magic are getting healthier and have enough talent to beat the Cavs. The Cavs are without Kevin Love and Jarrett Allen. Chris Baker is backing the Magic as double-digit underdogs. The Magic have a decent collection of bigs between Paolo Banchero, Mo Bamba, and Bol Bol. They rank 11th in the NBA in Location Expected Field Goal Percentage. Orlando's offense is effective at getting to the rim. Cavs have been poor defending the rims since Jarrett was injured.
