Odds are available as of April 28th, 2025. Odds may now differ.
The Heat have dropped their last seven playoff games at home and have failed to cover the spread in their previous five at Kaseya Center. Meanwhile, the Cavaliers have won five straight games against Miami this year. With a chance to secure some much-needed rest by completing the sweep, the Cavs will surely go out for the win. Moreover, the favorites have covered the spread in seven of their last eight games at the Heat’s home court. Given all these factors, I expect the Cavaliers to finish the sweep and rest up for the next round.
