Stephen Nover's NBA Saturday Annihilator
(NBA) Cleveland vs. Toronto,
Total: 198.00 | -110.00 Under
Result: Loss
I have no doubt the Cavaliers are going to put up their share of points here. They've scored triple digits in their last 20 games, are averaging 113.4 points during their last five games and 111.5 points during the first two games of this series despite taking the air out of the ball during the final minutes because of holding huge leads.

Toronto has been embarrassed the first two games - both on the road. Now the Raptors are home where a supreme effort should be forthcoming. It's an understatement to say point guard Kyle Lowry is way overdue having averaged just nine points in the series while missing 20 of 28 shots from the floor, including 14 of 15 from beyond the arc.

The oddsmaker opened this total again under 200. Neither game exceeded 199. But there's a reason for that. There have been less than 80 points scored during the two fourth quarters because of the blowouts. Neither team even shot the ball during their final possession.

Cleveland is too powerful for Toronto. But this shouldn't be a blowout. Certainly the oddsmaker doesn't think so dropping the line in half.

The over has cashed 24 of the past 30 times the Raptors have played following a double-digit defeat.
