Celtics at Cavaliers 5/19/18 - NBA Picks & Predictions

The Eastern Conference Finals will shift to Quicken Loans Arena for Game Three between the Boston Celtics and Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday night. The second-seeded Celtics were not expected to make a deep run this postseason, but stand two games away from reaching the NBA Finals. On Tuesday, Boston outscored Cleveland by 20 points during the second half of a 107-94 home victory. The Celtics only turned the ball over six times and assisted on 24 of their 40 made field goals.

LeBron James scored 21 of his game high 42 points in the first quarter to go along with 12 assists and 10 rebounds. Kevin Love added 22 points and 15 rebounds for the Cavaliers.

Boston G Shane Larkin (shoulder) has missed the first two games of this series and is questionable for this matchup. The Celtics have been better than the Cavaliers in almost every statistical category so far this postseason. Boston only has one win on the road during the playoffs and they will not be getting their next road win in Game Three. Final Score Prediction, Cleveland Cavaliers win and cover ATS 108-97.
