Cleveland heads into the conference finals fresh off crushing the top-seeded Detroit Pistons 125-94 on the road in Game 7, continuing their perfect record in elimination games this postseason. Now, Donovan Mitchell and Cleveland face a much more rested New York Knicks squad that has played four fewer playoff games entering the series.
The Knicks have had extra time to recover and prepare, while the Cavaliers arrive battle-tested after surviving two long playoff series. Will Cleveland’s playoff toughness carry over, or will the rested Knicks take control early behind their home crowd?

EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS
No. 4 CLEVELAND (+215) vs. No. 3 NEW YORK (-265)
- Spread: Knicks -7.5
- Moneyline: Knicks -265, Cavs +215
- O/U: 216.5
What to know: The Cavs are undefeated in Game 7s this postseason, but their second Game 7 win was much more impressive — a road victory over the top seed in the Eastern Conference, the Detroit Pistons. And it wasn’t just a victory — it was a 125-94 beatdown. Now, Cleveland gets a well-rested Knicks team in the conference finals. During the regular season, New York beat the Cavs twice, and the Cavs got one win off the Knicks, but neither team beat the other on the road. However, Cleveland has already played 14 games in the postseason, while the Knicks have played just 10. Will rest — or lack thereof — play a factor in this one?
