Cleveland Small Road Dog

After splitting the first two games at home, the Cleveland Cavaliers head to Washington to battle the Wizards in Game 3 tonight.

Sporting a 42-40 overall record and an 8-8 mark within the division, the Wizards aim to knock the Cavaliers (11-5 in the division) for a loss.

Cleveland comes in as a small road dog, as the line opened at 2.5 in favor of the host Wizards, who are 42-40 this season. The Cavaliers are 50-32. The OVER/UNDER has been set at 193.

After losing last time out, Mike Brown's team looks to rebound with a solid showing on the road Friday in Washington. They were 4.5 point favorites in that game, which went under the total of 196.5.

Expect the league's #3 offence to chuck in lots of points and generate trouble for the Cavaliers defence. Averaging 101.7 points per game, the Wizards can run up the score if they get on a roll.
