The game was weird tonight. Garland didn't seem himself. He had a lot of chances to throw up the alley oop but just wouldn't. had plenty of opportunities to get assists but just didn't seem focused. I thought Allen would have beasted on that smaller lineup but he too seemed very tentative. It almost felt like the Cavs really didn't take this game seriously. They'd get out to a lead, put on the brakes, give up the lead then stretch it out again. Weird game.
I've just been hammering the game lines and most 1st halfs.

I thought the same Mac. Figured Jarrett might have a nice one tonight since Miami is lacking any kind of inside presence at the moment, oh well. Thought one or the other would hit.
At least I still had my Sixers game to look forward to

Allen should beast against the Rockets this Wednesday. Curious what the PRA will be? Capela had 12,16 and 1 against them tonight. The Rockets has been playing very well of late. This could be a game Cleveland drops if they are not careful.

Congrats to anyone holding a Cavs playoff bet. That was the easiest futures bet of all time.

lol dude. You wanna give me 25-1 to that they won't make the playoffs? I'll book that as much as you want.
Not sure where that is from, but those projections are often off so much it's hilarious. If only books would just use those % to set odds, we'd all be rich.
Wait, that link has the Cavs as the best chance to win the conference. Did you run those numbers personally, mac?

I have no idea where those numbers came from. I thought it was funny that they already are penciling in the Cavs. I guess I'm not the only homer.

Evan Mobley probably won't play tonight. Rest. A 20 year old needs rest.
-8.5 seems like a lot of points versus a Rockets team that has been playing very good basketball of late. I'll ride with them but probably for not a lot.
Really hate it if Mobley is out tonight. If he plays, I hammer this, if he doesn't, I'm betting small.

I can't help myself, in no matter what. Cavs should win at home against Houston, the 8 point cover could get tricky though like you say but just don't think about it and do it.

Gordon is out too. Wow, that's really their top 2 players/scorers. Plus KPJr coming back to Cleveland. I'm pretty sure they are going to be locked into not have him score much. This looks like a Rockets under. I just hammered the Under Rockets team total 52.5 first half and 104 game. I'm also riding with the Cavs first half and game line. I have a little at -8.5 and more at -9.5. I hate not having Mobley in the paint to defend.

I don't see any player props at Heritage just yet. I'm thinking Jarrett is going to get a lot of touches tonight. Only issue could be if it's blowout and they take him out early.

I'm always worried about the early pull as well.
With that being said we have Jarrett over 32 Points+Rebounds+Assists.
Going to be a reach but oh well. Also have the Cavs covering

Cavs out to an early 35-16 1st quarter lead. This team is fun to watch. I should be going all in on these games. They’re defense is lights out.
My God, someone call the Department of Protective services. This is fukking child abuse. 47 to 16.

Mac, props on a great thread. Wishing you success.
One thing comes to mind for me. Basketball (in this case, NBA) is not such an easy evaluation for Player Value. Individual stats don't necessarily translate to team success b/c of Usage etc.
Anyway, Happy Holidays. Hope you keep rolling.
Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?

The Cavs make NBA teams look like HS teams. Speaking of, I’m at a HS game tonight and it is also a complete blowout. I am totally shocked how bad this other team is. They can’t even dribble the ball up the court. My 5th grade AAU team would beat this HS team easily. This is pathetic.
