Schule's NBA BEAST of the EAST - *RAPTORS vs. HEAT*
(NBA) Toronto vs. Miami, 05/09/2016 4:00 PM, Score: 87 - 94
Point Spread: 5.50 | -110.00 Toronto (Away)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* play on the Toronto Raptors.

The Raptors are back in the driver's seat after winning Game 3 in Miami, and they have to be encouraged by the play of Kyle Lowry. Their star PG has broken out of a slump, scoring 33 points on 11-of-19 shooting in the last game. He's going to need to carry the load with DeMar DeRozan banged up, and Jonas Valanciunas sidelined with an ankle injury. Toronto's center had been dominant in this series, scoring 55 points and pulling in 38 rebounds in 2.5 games. His replacement Bizmack Biyombo is also an excellent defender, but is nowhere near as dangerous offensively. Still this leaves the Raptors in better shape than Miami, who will really miss Hassan Whiteside. We've seen a trend of close, low scoring games so far in this series, with all three decided by six points or less. We should expect another competitive game here.

Take TOR.
