Cleveland is rested after an embarrassing blowout loss at Philly, 141-94, but the Cavaliers are 17-8-2 ATS after allowing 125+ points in their previous game. Boston is home and a huge favorite, but this is a look-ahead spot for the Celtics with games against the Pacers and 76ers on deck. It's also a sandwich spot, off a win against first-place Denver with a trip to second-place Indiana on deck. This is the first time all season Boston has been a double-digit favorite. They failed to cover as nine-point chalk over the Knicks, 104-102. These teams played a six-point game when they met last month, so back the big dog. Play Cleveland.
