    Orlando ML should be the play? Only 29% public is on Orlando ML
    Currently only 46% public is on Cleveland while 54% is on Orlando. As an update, the line opened at 2 and went down to 1.5. Because the majority of the public is on Cleveland and the line as moved down, seems like Cleveland would be the play, BUT in the other hand 71% public is on Cleveland ML while only 29% is only Orlando. Hmmm, maybe bettors on point spread almost even out on both sides, but only 29% of bettors are only Orlando ML. If Cleveland wins and cover tonight's game, wouldn't the book lose a lot of money? Another question is, would the bookies want to lose that much money? What you guys think? I think Orlando ML is more safe?

      Yeah that's what I thought so. I figured the books might try to even up on point spread from both sides (or at least close enough), but try to kill the public on ML. After all, the Magic only has to win by 2.

          My bad, you're right. And even if Orlando wins by 1, the bookies won't lose anything from the spread since it's almost even out.

            I think the public just loves the Cavs like the Lakers and Boston.

            Orlando is the play tonight
