A look ahead...CLE/ATL (Game4) first half play tomorrow..

[PorkChop]

An early look guys...

Im back and forth with CLE -5.5 (1st half).

Down 0-3, i think Cleveland gets on ATL early, and doesn't let up. ATL has been outplayed, and outmatched all series long, and got embarrassed on their home court with a pitiful 2nd half of game 3.

I dont see ATL staying with them at all this game...

Thoughts?

PC,

First-half scores in this series:

Game 3 in Atlanta: Cavs 47-46

Game 2 in Cleveland: Cavs 59-35

Game 1 in Cleveland: Cavs 49-44

[PorkChop]

So following the trend, this one should be Clev big at half.

..I just dont see how Atlanta will get up for this game, and be able to hang with Cleveland.

That's one way to look at it. I also feel that Cleveland will finish off the Hawks Monday night much like they did the Pistons. Call it the "Detroit" syndrome all over again. The Pistons rolled over when they were down 0-3. Why should Atlanta be any different?

May get off to a slow start but I believe once again they will finish strong. Get the dust pan out!

You got that right. I'm staying away from the first-half but I'm all over the Cavs for the game

That's a lot of points on the road. We have seen the scrubs come in and take a 36 point lead to 12 in a matter of minutes. I've been riding cleveland all year long and they have covered some ridiculous lines but I'm not going to hammer this play. I'm going to go with the 3rd quarter Cleveland for probably 2 units and the game for 1 unit.

[BobHarvey]

I like the 3rd quarter play..a lot.

[PorkChop]

3rd QTR play may be a wash, if CLEV has a big lead at the half.

Looking at this I would LEAN to the Hawks 1st half as a trend bet..if I was betting 1st half....CAVS ROMP IN GAME

Cleveland has won and covered every 1st quarter in this Atlanta series. I think its a better play than the 1st half. LeBron usually rests a little in the 2nd quarter.

I think Atlanta have given up on this series and are waiting to start their vacation after this game. Since James and Williams will play more minutes in the 1Q than they'll do in the 2Q, one thinks Clev -3 (1Q) will be a better play than Clev -6 (1H). It's kind of hard to cap this game but my tentative leans are:

Clev -3 (1Q)
Clev -10 (game).

[BL]

Already on Cleveland -10 and just before a minute i booked 1Q -2,5 !
This bet is looking really nice. Lost last games 1st Half on Cleveland. So the Cavs will bring back the money today.

Good Luck !
