<div class="heading">Cleveland vs. Toronto Game 4 Overview</div>
<p>After searing through the playoff bracket, Cleveland finally lost a game after winning ten straight contests leading up to their defeat in Toronto on Saturday. Cleveland's proficient offense cooled off as they only hit 35% of their field goals in contrast to the astounding levels they were proliferating in Game One and Game Two when they were hitting 50% or better of all field goals. In addition, the key players for the Raptors came up huge. Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan combined for 52 points and the rest was all said and done, as the Raptors were powered to a game they simply had to win.</p>

Cleveland Cavaliers at Toronto Raptors Pick
The writing was on the wall in Game Three and in spite of the vulnerability backers undertake in spotting significant points to a potentially live home pooch, much of the public are back on the Cavaliers yet again in Game Four. Nevertheless, the revelation is a bit stifling as the Raptors found a way to dictate and control Game Three in a way that is signature to the Raptors' style of play. As we have said it before and we will say it again, Toronto is different team in the Great White North and their Game Three efforts reflect this. The Raptors did not look remotely close to the same team that fell in Game One and Game Two and they will look to continue to build on their success at home with a notable advantage. With most of the public apparently unimpressed by the Game Three result, we will once again go back on Toronto in what will be a "best bet" situation.
Free Pick:
Toronto +6
