Basketball Betting Odds - Toronto Raptors at Cleveland Cavaliers

The Toronto Raptors, (35-33 SU, 35-32-1 ATS, 37-31 O/U), put on their finest defensive performance this season as they snapped a five-game losing streak in the BetUS.com Sportsbook on Wednesday against the lowly Miami Heat in center Chris Bosh’s return from injury, pounding the Heat 96-54.

The Cleveland Cavaliers, (39-30 SU, 33-36 ATS, 33-34-2 O/U), are also coming off their best defensive performance of the season in beating the Detroit Pistons 89-73 at home on Wednesday while resembling the team that LeBron James carried all the way to the NBA Finals last season.

"We took five steps forward, especially on the defensive end," said James, who also scored 30 points in the contest. "We just locked down defensively. Everybody was on a string. We allowed them to only get one shot at the basket."
