The Mavericks start their 4 game road trip in Cleveland and will be on a back to back after thrashing the Lakers. Doncic scored 34 pts in basically 3 quarters as the Mavs easily won by 18 points, 128-110. However, they have lost their last 2 games on the road, including a 21 pt loss against the Timberwolves on Saturday.<\/span><\/p>\n Cleveland ended a 3 game losing streak with a 107-101 win over the Thunder on Tuesday. Darius Garland led the way with 25 pts and Markkanen added 20 pts. They’ll be without Mobley and Allen for this matchup with Dallas so the likes of Garland will be important, especially against Doncic.<\/span><\/p>\n The Cavs have a good defence at home and Dallas might look to rest a few of their starters after travelling on a back to back. So we like the chances of a low scoring contest as the Under is 7-3 when these two teams meet in Cleveland. It’s also 6-2 in the Mavs last 8 road games.<\/span><\/p>\n Stadium Record<\/b><\/p>\n The Cavs are 13-5 in their last 18 home games. The Mavs are 6-3 at this venue in their last 9.<\/span><\/p>\n Head to Head Record<\/b><\/p>\n Cleveland won the earlier season meeting 114-96 but the Mavs have won 7 of the last 10 meetings.<\/span><\/p>\n Best Bet<\/b><\/p>\n Under 214.5 = $1.85<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n The Heat come off a 23 pt win over the Kings as they finally ended a long losing streak. Jimmy Butler was the standout with 27 pts and Adebayo added 22. The victory saw the Heat return to the top of the East standings and this will be an important matchup against the 3rd seeded Celtics. They should get a few players back for this contest, including Robinson, Martin and Vincent.<\/span><\/p>\n Boston went down to the Raptors on Tuesday 115-112 in OT. However, they were missing Tatum, Brown and Williams. Robert Williams is out with a knee injury but Tatum\/Brown should be back for this matchup. Boston has been excellent at home lately with an 8-2 record and they’ll be looking to start this 3 game homestand with a statement win over the #1 seed.<\/span><\/p>\n We’re expecting Tatum and Brown to suit up for Boston, which should see a fairly high scoring affair. Boston are 5-1 against the Over at home and their defence won’t be the same without Williams. Meanwhile, Miami is 12-6 against the Over on the road and 5-1 at TD Garden.<\/span><\/p>\n Stadium Record<\/b><\/p>\n The Celtics are 6-1 in their last 7 at home. Miami has won 4 of their last 6 at TD Garden.<\/span><\/p>\n Head to Head Record<\/b><\/p>\nMiami Heat (48-28) at Boston Celtics (47-29)<\/b><\/h2>\n
