    Cavs ml

    What is the chance of the Cavs losing tonight? I'm thinking of being a retard and betting Cavs ML 520 to win 200. Thoughts?

    Meaning teams go in streaks (Losing) I would not lay that on Clev. Just look at Boston

    Nah they are 0-2 vs them but they took out Boston by 10. So yeah I guess this is a little scary even though Cavs beat them by 15 earlier in the year.

    Cavs are not on a losing streak. Unless you think losing every other game is a losing streak. They won convincingly in Portland. Also, they have a tough game against the Jazz tomorrow. I think the ML for the Cavs is a safe bet. I put them on a 5 pt teaser myself.

    In all likelyhood they should win. I would not blame you for doing it. Yet they may be pissed and cover anyways. I would rather see you lay 500 on them -6.

    Yeah that is definitely the smarter play for sure I agree we will see I might just lay 220 to win 200 at -6.

    Whatever you do I pull for it. Cavs should win hands down. However I hate games that look so easy in NBA.

    You are not going to lose the ML. Some may lose the spread though.

    Good for you guy, like to see everyone win unless they are opposite me! Betting ML's in the NBA is a dicey deal.

    There is not a league around with as many prima donnas as the NBA. Some nights they just don't show up. Glad you won...take your nuts out of your ass now and enjoy it.

    LOL thanks yeah I am a lucky prick. I usually have stuck to spreads mostly because of the 1.1 - 1 return. I just had a bad feeling that Cavs weren't going to cover tonight and was 0-2 tonight, so I took a shot chasing my losses and ended up $95 on the day at least.

    I had a bad gut feeling about this game I figured GS would cover and it would be a 2-3 pt game that's why I took the ML. But yeah obv once they were down 1 with 6 seconds left I pretty much figured I was done.

    I know I was going to do both but it seemed like everyone but us was on Utah ML and spread today so I thought twice about it. Just did the +3 for $110. Never doubt the Cavs unless they play the Lakers.
