[02/21] Fade or Tail/NBA: Cleveland Cavaliers + OU

I have the Cavs aswell, didn't play the OU on the Kings and Heat game though.
I'm afraid the Heat's defense will under-estimate the Kings and lead it to a high scoring game.

With you on both!
Heavier on the Miami U/203.5!

Well, this is a possibility for sure.
But I like when the bookies gave us such an high line (at this price) only because of the gap between these two teams.
I see Miami easily passing the 105 mark, probably ending with a score around 110/115 but this could mean the Kings need 95+ points to hit the over (and it could mean a quite close game, pretty much hard to believe now)...

And love Clev's game: they're at home, they're the better team (even without Anderson Varejao) on the court, they're finally showing themselves like a legit NBA team...
The line is good (the -1 is at -110 I think) so no risky pick with high spread.
And, of course, Pistons are the Pistons. They've won three consecutive games... I think they're due for a loss.

Cleveland won by 1.
Miami's game ended with 228 points.

Well, Cleveland game ended with the only one outcome which gives the win to the Cavs but a loss to me. Nice.
On Miami one Wrecked hit the point (unfortunately): after first half I knew this wouldn't be a blowout... Conceding 108 points to the Kings at home and they didn't even cover the spread... What a joke. Heat have to worry about this kind of attitude IMHO.

Horrible night for me.
0-2 on NBA.

Now the record is back to even, with a 3-3 and a -0.04u loss YTD.
