Cleveland Cavaliers vs Boston Celtics: Current situation
The 3-game losing streak that happened in the 2nd half of January is a thing of the past for the Cleveland Cavaliers. The team is back to it’s normal routine of blowing out opponents. Over the weekend this team recorded its 4th win in a row, all by double-digits. Their lead atop of the Eastern Conference is once again safe, as the Celtics are 5.5 games back in 2nd place.
With 3 wins in a row, the Celtics are also in a solid state right now having won 7 of their last 10. Health is a major priority for head coach Joe Mazzulla as that’s the only thing that could stop the Celtics from repeating as champions this year. Tuesday’s game will be a huge test as they face the team that is likely going to wait for them in the Eastern Conference Finals.

The Cavaliers took their frustrations out of on the poor Dallas Mavericks by scoring 91 points against them in the first half of their game on Sunday. In the end they won by 43 points, no starter played more than 24 minutes in the win which will be beneficial in Tuesday’s game. In limited time Evan Mobley impressed with 22 points and 11 rebounds, while finishing the game with a team high +47 point differential. Donovan Mitchell also had the same point differential, despite scoring just 12 points.

Boston was down by as many as 26 points on Sunday at Philadelphia, but a heroic comeback in the 4th quarter extended their win streak to 3 games in a row now. Jayson Tatum stole the show with 35 points and 11 assists, while Jaylen Brown also contributed with a double-double of 21 points and 10 rebounds. As a team the Celtics knocked down 21 threes and recorded 34 assists in the win which helped them overcome their rebounding deficiencies.

Betting tip and prediction: Cleveland Cavaliers vs Boston Celtics (04.02.2025)
Both squads have been on fire offensively lately, setting up what should be a fun game to watch for the neutrals here. The Celtics will be highly motivated to avenge a loss suffered at the start of December in this same building. Despite this being a regular season game, there won’t be a lack of motivation on their part to prove they are the best team in the East, despite their record saying otherwise. The Cs are the healthier team coming into the game with only Payton Pritchard being a game-time decision. When it comes to experience playing in big games the edge is also on the Celtics side here. Cleveland had a relatively easy schedule over the past 4 games, blowing out all 4 opponents as a result. We have seen them at times struggle this season against more talented opponents, one of their 9 losses came against the Celtics in November. Boston shot the lights out in that game, knocking down 22 threes. If they catch fire early it will be hard to stop them. We were impressed with their comeback win over Philadelphia on Sunday, the momentum should carry over to the game against Cleveland. It will be a tight game, so it makes more sense to back the Celtics as road underdogs here.
