On Monday night, basketball fans could see a second-round sweep as they watch Raptors vs. Cavs live streaming online and televised coverage. Toronto is currently in an embarrassing 0-3 deficit in their series despite being the top overall seed in the Eastern Conference. Two of the games have been close, including Game 3, where they fell at the buzzer because of LeBron James' heroics. Will they be able to grab a win and potentially make history? Here's the latest game preview with matchup odds, TV start time, channel, and how to watch the Raptors vs.
Cavs live stream online game feed.
Game 4 preview & odds
In Game 3, LeBron James was able to once again tear the heart out of his opponent, hitting yet another buzzer-beater. This time around, the King of the Cleveland Cavaliers was able to hit a bank shot off the glass as the buzzer sounded, giving his team the two-point win. That shot arrived just after the Toronto Raptors had fought back in an impressive comeback, hitting a game-tying three-point shot with eight seconds left in the game. With that final shot, it gave the Cavs a 3-0 advantage in the series over Toronto and a chance to close out the series in Cleveland on Monday night.
One of the notable side stories for Game 3 regarding the Raptors was DeMar DeRozan going cold, so much so that he ended up benched for the fourth quarter.
DeRozan went just 3-of-12 from the field in 28 minutes on the court to finish with eight points. Kyle Lowry led the way for Toronto's ferocious comeback as his All-Star teammate watched from the sidelines. Lowry finished with 27 points on 9-for-13 shooting which also included a 4-for-8 rate from downtown.

The Raptors are going to need a much better effort from DeRozan in Game 4 if they want to stay alive in this series and have a shot at making history -- similar to that of a former Cavs squad.
Coming back from an 0-3 deficit to win a series is no easy feat, but the Cavs did that with James as their leader several seasons ago if Toronto needs inspiration.
For tonight's odds, Cleveland has the edge again as five-point favorites on the spread and a -220 moneyline price. The visiting Toronto Raptors are +180 underdogs, while the two teams have a points total sitting around 214 points for the complete game.
So far, they easily eclipsed that in the first two games of the series, but only scored 208 points combined in Game 3.
