    cavs -5.5

    Cavs flying high, Pacers coming off an uncharacteristic 114 point scoring win vs Pistons. Don't see a repeat of that. Feel like that and Cavs playing last night is creating some value here. I don't bet NBA much, but Cavs should cover this easy. I hit it for 4 units.

    Anybody see me going wrong here?

    This line does not pass the smell test. I have learned over the years that ignoring the smell test can be very expensive. I did not even bite on the - 5.5 overnight line.

    The final score was not indicative of the game. Cav's were up by 31 points and gave their starters the 4 th quarter off. They should be well rested for tonight's B2B. Of course, I usually wager ML's , hate to give points to anybody. Doubt Indy takes this one, too inconsistant. BOL.

    I hear ya on the smell test. That always pops up when you see a line like this, but I usually bet it anyway and I believe I am up by not being overly superstitious. It's at -6.5 most places now.

    I have been doing unusually well betting the overnights for cheap middle tries lately, but I let this one get away by overthinking.
