The Cavaliers are a team on the rise with five straight victories. One of these wins was a 132-123 road overtime victory against the Celtics in Boston this past Friday.

Boston, though, is in a higher class than Cleveland. The Celtics are in revenge mode and have underrated defender Grant Williams for this rematch. Williams missed Friday's game.

The Celtics are proven road warriors going 21-8-1 (72 percent) in their last 30 road games. The superior team with high motivation should succeed in this spot. That's the Celtics.
