The pros at FiveStarPick.com are heating up again with spread winners for our members in 8 of our last 9.  Tonight we are confident in our play on Game 6 of the NBA Eastern Conference Playoffs as the Cleveland Cavaliers travel to Boston to take on the Celtics.  Las Vegas sportsbooks list the Celtics as 1-point home favorites with a total of 196.

Boston crushed the Cavaliers in Game 5 with a 32-point (120-88) road victory, the worst playoff loss by Cleveland in their history.  Their was a bright side, however.  FiveStar members didn’t need the 7.5 points to get their cash.  Our only regret is that we didn’t take the money line at 3 to 1.

Cleveland shot 41 percent in Game 5, compared to the 55 percent they shot in Boston. All five starters for the Celtics were in double figures, led by Ray Allen’s 26 points, 18 of which were from behind the arc and Glen Davis was huge in the win with 15 points off the bench.

The Celtics definitely put together a winning game-plan for Game 5, but the biggest news of the night was LeBron James. The two-time league MVP had one of the worst outings of his career, scoring only 15 points on 3-of-14 shooting. Some critics say that if the Cavs lose tonight, Cleveland fans might have seen LeBron play his last game in a Cavs jersey.

Before you start looking ahead to a Magic-Celtics series, remember that Boston was in the same exact position last season, when they led Orlando 3-2 in the conference semi-finals. The Magic won Game 6, then stunned the locals at TD Garden in Game 7 with a 19-point (101-82) win to advance.

The Boston Celtics and the Cleveland Cavaliers will start Game 2 of their Eastern Conference Semifinal series on Monday, May 3rd at 8:00 p.m. EST on TNT. The Cavaliers took Game 1, 101-93, and are 6.5-point home favorites in Game 2 tonight with a total of 191.5.

Cleveland was getting spanked by the Celtics throughout much of Game 1, but Mo Williams slammed a breakaway home that fueled a game-ending 43-24 run. Winning Game 1 is a good sign for Cleveland as it is 10-0 in playoff series after a Game 1 victory. 

If Boston is going to cover the spread in Game 2, it is going to need to step up its defense; and they certainly can’t let the Cavs score 100 points in a game.  Boston played well enough offensively to win with four of five starters in double figures, but allowing LeBron James to score 35 points a game will mean certain elimination for the green and white.

The pros at FiveStarPick.com are on an incredible run going 38-4-3 against the spread in our last 45 games.  We gave our members the Celtics +8 in Game 1 and pushed. Last night our members had a 2-0 night and cashed big tickets with the Hawks -9 and the Over 199 in Game 1 of the Jazz Lakers.

FiveStarPick.com hits another huge against the spread winner for our members in the NBA Playoffs as we gave out the Lakers -5.5 for the game.  Winning games against the spread has nothing to do with luck…it’s about science and understanding statistical probabilities.  Don’t miss out on tonight’s against the spread winner in the Game 5 Eastern Conference Finals matchup between the Orlando Magic and the Cleveland Cavaliers.  Las Vegas sportsbooks list the Cavaliers as 8-point favorites with a total of 191.

The Orlando Magic took a 3-1 series lead thanks to Tuesday’s 116-114 overtime win as a 2-point home dog.  Dwight Howard scored 27 points in the win and pulled down 14 rebounds to go with four assists and three blocked shots.  The Cavs had a chance to win at the buzzer, but LeBron James’ 3-pointer at the horn was off the mark.   James finished the game with 44 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists and forced OT by hitting a pair of free throws with 0.5 seconds remaining in regulation.

Orlando (70-29 straight up, 59-39-1 against the spread) has now covered the number in nine consecutive head-to-head meetings against the Cavs.  In addition, the Magic have covered the spread in six straight games dating back to the Boston series.  Orlando’s Rafer Alston roasted the Cavs for 26 points on Tuesday night, knocking down 6-of-12 attempts from behind the arc.  As a matter of fact, the Magic have hit 17 of 44 shots from three-ville this series. 

Mo Williams ‘guaranteed’ a Cavs’ victory, but he was just 5-for-15 from the floor finishing with 18 points and just two assists. Delonte West added 17 points and seven assists without committing a turnover.

The Cavs are 44-3 straight up and 32-15 against the spread at Quicken Loans Arena.  The Magic have compiled a 32-18 SU record and a 31-18-1 against the spread mark on the road.

Congratulations to our over 3000 members who hit the ‘Over 208′ in last night’s Nuggets/Lakers ‘Total’ play.  The win continues a streak of 9 out of 10 winners against the spread for our core of betting believers.  The focus of today’s preview is Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals which features the Cleveland Cavaliers on the road to face the Orlando Magic.  Las Vegas sportsbooks list the Cavaliers as 2-point road favorites with a total of 188.  We think this line is dead wrong!

Orlando won Game 3, 99-89, over Cleveland on Sunday giving the club a 2-1 series lead in the best-of-seven duel.  Dwight Howard scored 24 points and the Magic rebounded from LeBron James’ game-winning buzzer beater in Game 2.

King James finished with 41 points in the Game 3 loss, but neither LeBron (1-of-8) or his teammates (4-of-18) could hit anything from behind the arc.  The Cavs (other than LeBron) have got to step up and make shots if they want any chance of making it to this year’s Finals.  Mo Williams finished Game 3 going just 5-of-16 from the floor and is a dismal 25% from 3-land.  To make things worse, the first-year All-Star caught a nasty elbow from Orlando’s Anthony Johnson that left him bleeding from the head.

It’s obvious that the public and the NBA want to see the Lakers and Cavaliers meet in the NBA Finals.  With that being said, the fouls in Game 3 were questionable at best and you could make the argument that the refs were leaning hard towards LeBron and the Cavs.  Officials called 58 fouls resulting in 86 free throws in 48 minutes…that is a lot of whistle blowing.

The Magic have covered eight straight and they are 13-1 against the spreaad in their last 14 meetings with Cleveland.  Orlando has lost two games at home in the playoffs on buzzer-beaters.  One trend favoring Cleveland is how the team responds coming off a loss.  This year, the Cavs have gone 14-2 SU and 13-3 against the spread after a defeat and that includes Game 2’s comeback win at home against Orlando.
