    Bulls/Cavs

    Am I the only one that's intrigued by the Cavs +8.5 tonight, even without Irving? Bulls looked beyond bad against OKC and Cleveland has been playing better lately. 5-4 SU over last nine with a win over the Thunder and close losses to the Heat and Spurs.

    Thoughts? Just hard for me to trust Chicago (4-6 SU over last 10) from what I've seen recently, especially with their awful record at home.

    If Hinrich plays I'd take the Bulls. Cavs are nothing without Kyrie and Varejao. I'm probably gonna try to get a better number live though.

    Bulls are 7-21 at home ATS.
    Cleveland has been on a ATS run.

    I agree. Missing Irving is huge but covering 8.5 seems high for the Bulls. I think people are also over looking that the Bulls will be without Gibson as well. I'm thinking Cavs & under possibly.

    Too high? Bulls have beaten the Cavs by at least 10 points in all their meetings this season.

    And with the Thunder humiliation, I expect them to rip Cavs apart.

    True and the Cavs did cover the first four games when Kyrie was out this season. But they also had Varejao in beast mode on the boards back then. Pass or a better live number on the Bulls for me still.

    Don't trust your money with the Bulls, Detroit, 76ers or Minny. These teams have no heart, let alone talent.

    I took the cavs with the ML.
    Waiters playing well. Cavs kept up with Miami and most importantly the bulls are not playing well. This was my lock for today

    Good job. Also, the Cavs played some good ball, lots of energy. I couldn't resist the +11.5 at the first timeout and left it at that. Should have grabbed the ML at some point as well I guess but didn't feel like sweating anything.
