The Cavaliers are (7-3) in their last ten games whereas the Bulls are just (4-6).  Cleveland has the advantage in most of the major statistical categories. The Cavaliers and Bulls have split their last ten games head to head.  The Cavaliers are playing much better basketball as of late while the Bulls are faltering.  I like the Cavaliers to win this one on the road.
