    Best of luck D2!! Hard to think the Cavs could lose to the Pelicans at home tonight. I think you'll be ok.

    If they lose I may never bet them again also even if I don't have money on it!! ..

            If they can't bounce back in a big way tonight, you can rip up those futures...

              So what you're saying is the future of the Cavs playoff chances hinge on this game tonight?

                Tight game so far but it's early.

                      Cleveland has been figured out. Probably slide down to a play-in. They are dogshit.

                        Barely eked by a pathetic Pelicans squad without Ingram. As it stands now, Cavs are a bottom-tier team. Don't be fooled by the record.

                          You barely squeaked that out on the ML. Good job. Cavs were losing the entire game up until the end there.

                            I know. It wasn't a good job. I made a bad bet and got lucky. I'm not happy with that play.

I'm still on the fence in taking this bet though. Cavs are playing back to back games as well. Probably taking a pass on this game. They probably win and cover though.Wait for a better spot in the future to play them is my take.. https://sports.yahoo.com/m/fe0b2676-...s-odds%2C.html
                              I couldn't post yesterday but this was a definite no play because Garland was out. This Cavs team is very dependent on the PG and losing Rubio has put too much pressure on Garland. He's banged up with a sore back and was out to get rest. If he doesn't play, you can't logically take the Cavs and you should take their Under because they're not scoring 100+ without Garland in any game.

                              Crazy game. I chalked it up as a loss deep into the 4th quarter. Pelicans was hitting everything and the Cavs couldn't buy a basket. The Cavs stole that game. I still don't know how they won that?

                              I'll be at the Rockets game tomorrow night (front row seats). Not sure I can play them tomorrow either as the Rockets are steaming after getting punked by Golden State.

                                  Of course the Rockets will be getting points and most likely Garland won't play. This could be an outright Rockets ML win tbh. Kevin Porter JR will be very motivated after trash talking Steph and getting punked and facing his former Cavs team for the first time. Brandon Goodwin has been balling for the Cavs in place of Garland but not sure he can have great games back to back. I'll most likely pass on that game.

                                    Cleve only closed -4.5 vs. NO and, records notwithstanding, I'd rate Houston higher than New Orleans right now.

                                    Assuming Garland out, what do you suppose the spread will be? More than -4.5?

                                    It's an interesting contrast game, because Houston plays high scoring games and Cleveland plays low scoring games. Houston hasn't allowed fewer than 103 since November. But Can the Cavs even score 100?

                                      Lol bro these games don't mean anything, win or lose. I'm not sure how many times I have to repeat that. What happened when Toronto had the number 1 seed by a long shot and the Cavs with James were on cruise control at the 4 or 5 seed? They swept them in the conference finals.

                                        Only reason the line was -4.5 was because the Cavs were on a back to back. Would have been higher if they had at least a day rest.
                                        I think even with Garland out the Cavs will be favored. Probably -2 or -3. I'd cap it as even money or even Rockets -1 but the books have been finally catching up to the Cavs.

                                          Cavs are on the decline right now and just barely winning games or losing. I'm out going forward. I've lost confidence.

                                          I'd rather bet the Memphis Grizz right now. Now that team is playing ball and covering in most games. Numbers don't lie. https://www.teamrankings.com/nba/trends/ats_trends/

                                            Jibbby - The Cavs are 9-2 the last, 11-4 in the new year. Just win baby. Unfortunately, they are not covering, which is no good for the wallet. They are still covering 1st quarter and 1st halfs but choking like dogs in the 2nd half. I lost like $2k last week on a game by 1 point that they missed like 17 free throws. That was fukkking ridiculous.

                                            The Griz are 12-4 in the new year. They are 6-4 in their last 10.

                                            Cavs have certainly dropped from being a covering ATM. That's for sure. Which is why I cooled off them a bit. The lines used to be soft, now might be inflated, which is why I said really after Rubio went down to tread lightly.


                                            This team is struggling to score points without Garland (especially when they lost Rubio). They really don't have players that can create their own shot, which is crucial in the playoffs. Mobley is starting to score in the paint and Love is a pure scorer off the bench but other than that you only have Okoro slashing in the lane. They really miss a guy like Sexton who is just a beast. They have to address this because no way they go deep in the playoffs currently constructed.

                                                    Cavs probably win and maybe cover tonight but like I said in an above post I'm done for now and can't trust betting on them going forward.

                                                    Other teams to play on right now that I feel are safer grabs. Like playing Memphis and Phoenix especially at home.

                                                    I'll pick my spots with the Cavs in the future when all players are healthy and with some home games probably.

                                                      I can't explain that shit. I'll be damned if I play that.

                                                      Maybe because I'll be courtside tonight with my Cavs fan gear. I'm probably worth at least 3 points as a cheerleader.

                                                        I really see no way the Cavs score 112 tonight. I really want to hammer the shit out of this but maybe I'm missing something here? Without Garland, they'll be lucky to score 100.

                                                            Cmon, Cavs. Hope they didn't burn all their energy in the win over MILW.

The team was more focused on hitting the club afterwards with Shaqs son. The Cavs have issues moving the ball without Garland. Just hammer the under whenever he doesn’t play. They have the easiest schedule remaining. They have been on a good win streak and will start winning again after the All Star break. Relax.

Colin Sexton looks like he can go right now. I bet he comes back in time for the playoffs. Get Markannen back and add another piece like Aaron Gordon and they will be ready.

Jarrett Allen is not playing well and too much pressure on Mobley and Garland. Now, Markannen is out for some time too. Every time this team is poised to make a move they seem to take 2 steps back with injuries and/or Covid. Snake bit. Might lose these next 2 games.

Even though they blew the doors off of the Bucks a week ago. You can't close your eyes and just bet them anymore. They've hit several bumps. Can't trust them every night. Especially Fade them anytime Garland doesn't play.
