Cleveland game looks a good pick, they were on a great run until the last game, so should be fired up and ready to roll in this game and we all know how they reply after loosing to a big team.

1st QTR wise, overall for the season Cleveland have the best 1st QTR record in the NBA with overall 73%, Indiana are mid-table in 1st QTR rankings 50&. When we look at the last 5 games Home/Away 1st QTR however,

Cleveland 1st QTR @ Home: Win Lakers +2. Win Toronto +22. Draw Clippers. Lost Kings -1. Win New Orleans +11

Cleveland 1st QTR Away: Win York +12. Lost Detroit -2. Win Orlando +7. Win Utah +10. Win Golden State +2

Last 5 1st QTR away results; 4-1
Last 5 games overall, 4-1.
Last 5 away games. 4-1
Have beaten Indiana since 2006

Indiana 1st QTR @ Home: Win Orlando +3. Win Minnesota +5. Lost New York -1. Win Miami +3. Win Bucks +16

Indiana 1st QTR Away: Win Washington +8. Lost 76ers +7. Lost Orlando -16. Lost Spurs -5. Win New Orleans +2

Last 5 1st QTR home results: 4-1
Last 5 games overall. 1-4.
Last 5 home games. 3-2


They're pretty much even stats wise, Indiana has been doing great @ home 1st QTR, Cleveland have doing doing great on the road. However, when we take Cleveland as the overall better team in all departments including winning 1st QTR's, plus the factor of loosing to Lakers and wanting this game bad, Cleveland look favourites.

I just hope the line isn't too high, if not looks a good play! if its too high just going for the Game - points.

Cleveland 1st QTR -1.5, better than I was expecting, gonna take it.

[curious]

Geezuz this was a lot of ANALyzing just to take the best 1Q team in basketball.

It's better to play Quarter favs on the money line. The win % you quote is NOT ATS. ATS is a whole different story.

Good Luck man

1-1 After that shocker

Today.

1st Quarter Magic -1.5

1st Quarter Bobcats -1.5

Bobcats 1st QTR @ -1.5 looks tasty.
Wizards are 2-8 away in 1st QTR's over last 10 matches.
Bobcats are 7-3 last 10 games @ Home even beating the mighty Celtics.

Wizards are overall worst team in the NBA 1st QTR wise, they're even worse away, Bobcats are doing well at home in the beginning of matches at least.

1st Quarter Celtics -1.5

Bobcats 1Q was a good play but Orlando isn't looking too good.

[Karayilan9]

These so-called big teams have been really letting us down the last few days

Bobcats went well though and as the odds were higher for them overall I'm in the green, hope Boston do this lol

3-2

Boston 1st QTR -1

Boston is the 3rd best 1st QTR team in the NBA, they have won 8 of their last 8 away games 1st QTR's, Dallas @ home over last 8 games is 4-4 and their overall win % for the season is 47%. Only worrying thing is Boston on a B2B and Dallas with their great home record.

look at dallas 1Q points scoring VS win/loss percentage.

dallas is still a decent 1st Q team on the road
