The betting odds and predictions are below:

Donovan Mitchell has been dynamic on offense as he leads the team in points and assists. At the other end of the court, Mitchell is creating havoc as he leads the team in steals. Donovan Mitchell deserves an early-season buzz for the NBA MVP.
The Cleveland Cavaliers deploy their frontcourt as well as anybody in the NBA. Jarrett Allen, Evan Mobley, and Kevin Love cause multiple issues for the opposition on both ends of the court.
When the Cavaliers need a lift offensively, they turn to Caris Lavert, who is averaging 15 points per game.
Jayson Tatum has become one of the most reliable performers in the game. Tatum is averaging 30 points and seven rebounds per night.
Jaylen Brown is an ideal counterpart who averages 25 points and seven rebounds per night.
Marcus Smart remains one of the catalysts for the Celtics, leading the team in assists and steals.

Boston Celtics vs. Cleveland Cavaliers Best Pick:
We've mentioned how Jaylen Brown became Robin to Jayson Tatum's Batman. Brown has played exceptionally well so far in 2022. The Cavaliers play an uptempo style with their guards, but where they struggle defensively is along the perimeter, at length. Jaylen Brown checks both boxes and should continue his torrid start.
Jaylen Brown; Pts: Over 23.5
Boston Celtics vs. Cleveland Cavaliers Final Prediction
The Cavaliers outworked Boston in their first meeting. That narrative likely won't play out in this one. Donovan Mitchell will get his, and the Cavaliers' frontcourt will cause the Celtics issues, but ultimately the Jayson Tatum/Jaylen Brown duo is too tough to stop. Take the Celtics.
