Current Record: 7-3
Had a nice win with the Hawks last night in a close one.
Tonight I'm betting on the game of the team I know best, the Cavs. Cleveland takes on a reckless Golden State team tonight at the Q as the start of 4 games in 5 nights. It has been announced that Shaq is doubtful for tonight (he did not play last game either).
Do not expect to see your usual Golden State game of non-stop running and gunning as Cleveland won't allow it. The more the Warriors try to push the ball, the more the Cavs will isolate Lebron and run time off the clock. With Stephen Jackson now gone, the Warriors will struggle to guard James.
However, as much as I see the Cavs dominating this game, I just don't see them covering 14.5 points. As the first game of 4 in 5 nights, the Cavs will look to get a huge lead early, and then clear the bench in the 4th. The Cavs play the Wizards on the road tomorrow night, and Lebron will want to be 100% for one of his favorite rivalries. Take the Warriors plus the points tonight.
Warriors +14.5
