    Cavs Series -220 over Pacers
    This is a great price & great spot bet here down 0-1 to Pacers

    LeBron has never lost a 1st round playoff series

    LBJ was unstoppable in the paint, but the rest of the team was awful. Green cannot possibly have a worse game. And Cavs couldn’t buy a 3. They came out slow n looked like they barely tried, and credit to Pacers for taking advantage. Oladipo played out of his mind, but won’t hit 3s at that rate all series. Bogdanovic looked lost. Turner played great defensively but there’s no matchup problems screaming Pacers advantage to me.

    Cavs will likely win game 2 and tie the series up to win in 5 or 6.

        Still don't like laying that kind of juice. Cavs should comeback and win, but would it really shock you to see them lose the series? LeBron already has one foot out the door, this reminds me a little of when Boston beat them and then LeBron left for Miami in free agency in the summer.

          They probably win but that year he left they really struggled vs Chicago in round one. The pacers are deep and tenacious and probably want it more.

              This is correct.

                They could lose. LBJ played 82 for some personal reason (MVP voting perhaps?).
                So he is not fresh as a daisy.

                How many games has the rest of the starters won in the playoffs in their career?
                Indy has no fear.

                      I’d only take that bet @ -150 or lower. I don’t see the value here DOM. GL regardless ....

                          Snatched up Indiana at +510 yesterday. I still think the Cavs win the series, but Im happy with my wager.....at the moment!

                            Don't lay -220. Parlay the Cavs with OKC at -250 to win their series. Better than even $

                                    What people dont realize is the reason why Lebron has never lost the first round is because he was usually playing a 7 or 8 seed as a 1-2 seed, now hes playing a way higher seeded team that's earned it.

                                      I'm in the same position. Actually, I only got +480.

                                      Can't decide if I want to buy back now, or wait until after game two.

                                        Hmmm.... LeBron has been to 7 straight NBA Finals. But you’re right, he’s only beaten 7/8 seeds and now he cannot overcome a 5-seed....

                                            On top of that his team is trash.

                                              It’s square but it’s hard to see Cavs losing. One thing I know for sure is that this Pacers team won’t cower. They know they are the better team.

                                                Just saying pacers are a decent team, they have really earned their record and seed and could legit beat this cavs team. What if love gets hurt again? its a wrap

                                                  The key here is game 2. Why did the line go up 2 points?

                                                  Classic bounce back spot? Blowout?

                                                  I think Indy hangs right till the end.

                                                    Classic bounce back spot? Blowout?

                                                    I think Indy hangs right till the end.
                                                    I agree.

                                                    I can also see them getting blown out in Indiana.

                                                      You have Indy series right? I wanted to take that but I got scared cause James owns these guys.

                                                      I want to take it still but I have two dilemmas.

                                                      1. I think I can get better if the cavs win big.

                                                      2. If I wait and Indy loses a close game 2 the little bit of value at +180 is done.

                                                      So it's iffy but the way I see it the cavs pull even and then get hammered in game 3 and to a lesser degree in game 4 before getting that possible token win at home and then bowing out in game 6.

                                                        Tough call, I do think the Cavs rebound and win the series.. I still need to see the next game to draw conclusions though.. That first game was a disaster for the Cavs.

                                                        I don't even think I will bet game 2.. Just don't know what will happen????

                                                        You wanna think the Cavs come out with a sense of urgency and the Pacers will be just happy to get the win in game 1.. If I had to bet I would go Cavs in game 2... Just don't have the stones to pull the trigger on that yet..

                                                          I do have money on Indiana for the series. My only series bet, and it's a pretty big one.

                                                          I was just hoping they'd win one of the first two games, and then my plan was to buy back Cleveland.

                                                          Now I'm not sure what to do with it.

                                                          I could buy back now at -220, or I could root for Indiana in game two, and then buy back around -320(?) or so.

                                                          Either way, I'm not going to get stuck with this bet. If it's 1-1, I'm pretty sure Lebron will find a way.

                                                            I think Indiana wins the series. If you didn't get the generous Pacer price before game 1, I still think there's value at the current +200. The Pacers have historically given Bron's teams fits, even when Cleveland was decidedly better. I think this year Indiana is arguably better or at least on par with Cleveland, and they're hungry.

                                                                    Hoosiers take basketball pretty fukkin serious, along with corn fields

                                                                    Was surprised lebron actually played here during the regular season, in past years he just “rests” ... but Cavs are a different team now obviously. Has to carry them all the way

                                                                    Cavs defensive liabilities are too much of a drag on them

                                                                    Nobody has been able to guard Oladipo all year anyways, Sabonis was in foul trouble last game but he will dominate the boards with the 2nd unit (personally think he is better than turner, but different skill sets as Myles can shoot)

                                                                    Pacers bench is probably among the best and deepest in the NBA

                                                                    Either way, I am a Pacer fan so I obviously have bias

                                                                    Will be in attendance at the field house for the rest of the series
