    Somebody Convince me That This Heat/Cavs Game Won't Be a Blowout

    there is not a single player on the cavs lineup that can even begin to matchup with the heat... who are just looking razor sharp right now



    somebody convince me that this won't be a 20+ point beatdown

    Miami's defense is why the side is priced so low

    Cleveland sucks hard but they should score some points in this game....no way in hell this game stays under imo

    Who has Miami beat by 20 on the road? I have a feeling they will be down most of the game and then somehow backdoor a 4 point win. They just beat the Wizards and Pistons so what those teams suck.

    Miami has looked like a completely different team though since they had that players only meeting

    they won the last 2 games by a combined 40 points and I don't even think Cleveland is much better than the pistons or wizards

    my thoughts exactly


    I think they will be very very motivated to prove everybody wrong on prime time and win this game by 15-20+ points

    I agree, this game should easily go over the total, currently at 192.

    For me, I need someone convince me not to go HEAVY on Cavs ML. This is the same as Lock for me.

    because if Cavaliers lose this game, their season is same as over already until March when Heat visit them the second time, i.e. they will be fade material throughout the season. This is their NBA finals game 7. Nothing is more important than this. :agree:

    Watch how they fight for rebound like their life depend on it. And I think I expect some flagrant fouls as well. And for sure, every foul committed to James will be hard foul.

    it's the first week in December, nobody in Cleveland is thinking of the playoffs

    Take the emotion out of it, bud. Take the names away. Remove all the hype.

    Now look at the stats. Two completely different teams. One is a playoff, maybe even Finals, caliber and the other is a low tier. Cleveland's hopes and thoughts of still having a decent team is evaporated as Lebron and company destroy them.

    against who?

    Detroit who had their worst scoring percentage in 20 seasons? Washington one of the worst teams in the NBA right now?

    They've been "blowing out" bad teams, and losin to good ones, that's not very sharp. Cleveland can be considered a bad team too but they have a lot more motivation to win in front of their crowd.

    cleveland is no better than Detroit is and Miami will be every bit as motivated to blow them out anyways

    I really think the line is low because people don't want to root for Lebron in this game.

    No, thats why they have spreads. Most of the time you can pick a winner, but then they throw a spread at you.

    Hints why moneylines for favorites are not worth the value.

    The Refs are going to call this game TIGHT. I think the game will have to go over just because of the freethrows involved.

    That's what I'm worried about. I think defense will be focal point for the Cavs.

    The cavs will want to get physical and ramp up the intensity on defense. Do you really think the refs will let them get away with it?

    I think Lebron is going to go into distributor mode and Wade is going to live on the line.

    O/u are way to hard to call,

    My favorite bet tonight is LBJ over 26.5 points.

    you know he's going to the line 15+ times.

    Some of you think Cleveland wont be motivated to play there asses off and I think this is wrong. Cleveland feels abandoned, cheated, screwed, F'd, etc. Like another poster said this is there game 7 of the nba finals. They are going to play there ass off. I have no opinion on the spreads, etc. But I do believe Cleveland will bring everything they have tonight to prove a point. On that note Go Cleveland!
