  • Game 4 tips at 8 p.m. ET in Cleveland with New York holding a 3-0 lead and one win from its first NBA Finals berth in 27 years.
  • New York enters as a 2-point road favorite at -130 on the moneyline, while Cleveland is +110 to avoid a sweep; the total is set at 218.5.
  • The Knicks have won 10 straight playoff games, and betting markets swung sharply after Game 3, moving them from a 2.5-point underdog then to a 1.5-point favorite on the Game 4 open.
  • Cleveland, routed in Game 3 and facing criticism for its late effort, still has some precedent on its side: teams down 0-3 have occasionally forced a Game 5 even if series comebacks remain rare.
Will Cleveland's home-court advantage be enough to defy betting trends and avoid a historic sweep?
Is the Knicks' dominance a result of superior strategy or the Cavaliers' postseason fatigue?
