Cleveland Cavaliers News
Cleveland has been in the series of three victories in the Canadian team, with whom he has already played twice this season. In the first duel they had a real catastrophe and they were defeated at home with 99: 133, in the second at least a little retreat, celebrating 132: 129 on their pitch, though they lost 64:79 at half time. Cavsi are the third in the East with 47 wins and 30 defeats, and the immediate place below them are 76ers with only one win less (Indiana is the fifth with 46-31). Therefore, it is very important for the Cavs to win, because of course it is much better to be the third player in the play-off, but let’s say the fifth, where they would not have the advantage of a domestic field.
In the last match and victory over Mavs, they struggled to the very end of the match. The last quarter was 25:10 and in spite of bad James (5/21) they managed to win (James scored 72th triple-double in the career). The composition returned to ruin Love and Nance Jr, which amplified the game in the racket, while outside the court shield Korver and bek Hill. Also, mid-March coach has been absent due to illness and is not known when he could return to Cavs’s bench.
Convinced initial composition of Cavs: Hood (Hill), Calderon, James, Nance Jr, Love

Toronto Raptors News
Toronto seems to have relaxed much earlier than it needed and suddenly brought the danger to the first place in the East. They now score 55 wins and 21 defeats, and Boston has six consecutive wins at 53-23 and by the end of the regular part they will “blow their throats” at Raptors. Toronto had six of the last ten matches, while in Cleveland they came after the defeat of Celtics 99: 110. Toronto is by far the best domestic team in the league, but they have a 24-14 victory, including Cavs defeat in the last duel.
Toronto’s match-up with Boston had a string of 17 rounds in which as a team they scored a minimum of 10 trumpets and it is obvious that Boston recognized the greatest danger and stopped the Raptor’s outer shot. Coach Casey has a whole set of features, so there are no injured players, and that is what is most important in this end of the regular section. Toronto is more efficient team this season than Cavs, while their defense is much better and receives 5 points less on average than Cavs.
