    In the East, 8.5 games separates #1 from #10. In the West, 22 games separates #1 from #10.

The Pistons, Magic, Pacers and Wizards (Beal is now out the rest of the year) are all in tank mode already and the Knicks just flat out suck. So worst case the Cavs are in the playoffs. The Hornets and Nets have been in free fall but I expect the Nets to turn it around once Durant comes back but that could be another 3 to 4 weeks. They might dig a hole that they can not get out of. Harden's hammy looks like it might never heal until he gets traded. Their worst enemy is themselves. They couldn't get out of their way last year and shooting themselves in the foot again this year. That team might just be cursed. Thanks Kyrie.

      So the chances of them dropping to the play in is pretty slim. They've lost their key player in Garland and still kept on trucking. This team is probably the most resilient team in all the NBA.
      I think technically the play-in is not the "playoffs". So if you make the play-in and lose, you did not make the playoffs. I think that's how it's graded.

        Yes this is correct. You have to get into the final 8 to be considered a playoff team.

          This is a Cavs love fest but pump the brakes on Kevin Love, softest big man in NBA history that never played for a winning team as the number one. Always padded his stats when the timberwolves were down 20 his career yr. His best yrs had him winning 20 games a season as the guy, he is nothing but a glorified role player not an all star by any means

            It'll be interesting to see how LeVert integrates into the Cavs plans this yr.

            He's a talented player that requires space and shot clock to utilize his skillset which could bode good or bad.

            Maybe delegate him as the primary ball handler with the second unit?

              Huh? Love has accepted his role as a 6th man off the bench and he's killing it. He's been providing that extra scorer that the Cavs desperately need especially without Sexton, Markannen, Rubio and Garland. He's shooting 40% from 3 and is averaging 15 points and 8 rebounds in 20 minutes a night. The last few weeks he's been instrumental in securing wins basically as a point forward while they don't have a point guard.

              Do you even watch the games? What does stat padding 10 years ago have to do with today? Whoever said he was the number one option? Coming off the bench?? Come on man.

              You talk about Cavs love fest but there's plenty more haters as noted in this thread.

                Two plays:
                *Cavs (gm) -5.5. 324 to win 300.
                *Cavs (1q Moneyline) -160. 160 to win 100.

                Good Luck.

                    Always thought love was an overrated YMCA player that got max money. Whatever he does now is only paying back for the criticism he never got when he was in his prime

                      One more play:

                      *1h parlay: Cavs (-180 M/L) with Gold St +1 (-110). Price = +197. 120 to win 236.

                      My logic on the Gold St half:
                      *Gold St has guys out, but they're older guys. More name than substance. GoldSt is actually developing young players.
                      *Utah is missing the Eiffel Tower. And he is IMMENSE.

                      Feel like small dog on game might get jammed on end-game. Feel better about taking small dog 1st half, so that it gets played out honestly.

                          Poetle scored ZERO 0 points the last time they played. He had like 11 rebounds but didn't score a point. Allen put up 17 and 16.

                          This could be another tough game without Garland. If Levert can run the offense and setup guys like Allen it could be an easy cover but if he struggles moving the ball, they could struggle to score.

                          I'm riding Cavs 1st quarter and 1st half plus the Under 1st half and game. I still think without Garland, you have to play the unders.

                            Love is a straight up scorer. He knows how to put up points. He was pretty useless playing with Lebron but he's showing right now glimpses of what he did in Minny. The other night he scored like 20 and had a shitload of rebounds and assists. Love's game is lovely.

                                  Goodwin played last night D league game. Garland is supposed to play but they are going to see how he feels in warmups. They could also use Levert at point as well.

                                  I hate that I already bet the Cavs under thinking Garland wouldn't play.

                                  I think this might be a blowout game. The Cavs should be really feeling good about themselves. The roster really looks great and there's a lot of excitement in the city. The offense could struggle a bit in the 1st quarter if Garland plays but I'm liking the 1st half and game line now. May have to cancel the Under bet with an over bet and pay the juice??

                                                      Mac, you called it. Allen got the better of Poeltl. Poeltl scored a few buckets late, that's it.

                                                            . I love teams that make me money. Cavs have been pretty consistent this season. Funkiness Browns not so much.

                                                              Garland is so good. He might be a top 5 PG in the league. He is going to be a bad man in this league.
