We've reset the Play of the Day with fresh bankrolls and turned it into a yearly competition. Our three sports writers have restarted with $10,000 bankrolls to continue using on odds from the South Point.

Cleveland Cavaliers at Toronto Raptors over-197 points: $660 to win $600

The last two games of the Eastern Conference Finals have gone under the total, but both were on pace to go well over before the offenses went ice cold. Unfortunately, that can happen at any moment with this series, but I’m betting that this time the pace will remain high enough to get into the low 200s.

Cleveland had a terrible shooting night in Saturday’s loss at Toronto, and the Cavaliers are unlikely to shoot that poorly again. Add in the motivation for trying to effectively end the series with a 3-1 lead and I think Cleveland is going to look close to how it did in Games 1 and 2.

As long as Toronto responds with a good performance, we should finally see a more consistent scoring pace throughout the game.

Current Standings (as of July 1): Brewer (47-41-2, $10,375), Bern (32-39, $6,625), Keefer (47-58-2, $4,650)

Lifetime standings: 2014-15 Champion Bern (112-113-1), Keefer (130-141-4), Brewer (116-128-4)
