    How can GSW @ CLE be a roll of the dice?

    GS won 4 times this year against CLE, 2 times at regular season and 2 wins in the playoffs.

    CLE might have Love missing.

    CLE doesn't have a good bench like GS.

    So how can the oddsmakers offer 95% yield on GSW and 95% yield on CLE?

    Yes, let's ignore the first 2 playoff games - they still got beaten in the regular season ... what's going to change it now?

    ------------------

    Perhaps for the very first time in history of this playoffs the (-1) / (+1) is going to be useful i.e. one team would win by 1 point?!!??!?!

    Only 1 or 2 people on this board giving cleveland any chance. I wouldnt be surprised if this goes back to oakland tied 2-2. Cant wait to read all the "i pounded cleveland" threads when that happens.

    So far it has been a massive struggle for Cleveland in the first two. They have basically been outhustled, outrebounded, and have been unable to control the tempo of the game. Early in game 2 they seemed to have a little bit of success trying to slow the Warriors down by trapping in the half-court but as the game wore on they started to slow down offensively and GS ran them ragged for the final 3 quarters. They looked like a team without much of an identity, trying to figure out what has clearly been the best defensive team they have come up against in the playoffs and their length and quickness is bothering them mentally.

    Can Lebron get the troops to dial back in after an embarrassing blowout? There is some hope in that they have been nothing short of excellent at home in the playoffs and have been red hot shooting the 3 there. Whether that can continue vs GS is a question that remains to be seen. Missing Love tonight I do not think is a monstrous loss he is a defensive liability most of the time anyway and Frye can take the same role as a nice spot-up 3 pt shooter. For them to make this series closer they will have to start playing a bit more aggressively all the way to the last bench player and rebound the ball. Like I have said they do not have a true shot-blocking presence inside and that has made it easier on GS to solve double teams on the outside with easy pick and rolls to the basket. In my opinion there is not much value in this game because you do not yet know how the Cavs plan to adjust and whether it will work. Warriors' struggles in game 3 in the playoffs is also to note and I would not write off the Cavs just yet because they can use the home crowd to their advantage but them being favored by only a point in a desperation game is a sign of respect to the Warriors. A play on game 4 is probably worth a look.

    The whole playoffs has been like this - blowouts - bad games - nothing makes any sense. The Cleveland bet looks so bad - it is probably good - throw the stats - the science out the window. Need to win factor is like a black hole that eats everything else up!
