    Even though they got creamed in the 4th, the Cavs put up a good fight against the Heat for a while. I think they may start putting it together to at least beat the point spreads against them. I'm not talking about ML yet. Am I nuts?

    I think you're pretty on point. The lines are getting inflated ridiculously, and I think eventually they're going to start covering these huge double digit spreads and Vegas will have to readjust. Seems like a good time to start putting small plays on Cleveland.

          If people would actually be dumb enough to trust your gauge, it would be.

                See here's the thing: yes the Cavs managed to keep it close for a while... but they still lost by almost 30 when they were only down 3 midway through the 3rd quarter. Not only is this team decimated for talent, but they have injuries, too. Its entirely possible they're tanking for Jared Sullinger who has a similar size and skill set to Lebron and he's from Ohio.

                That being said its only a matter of time before they run into another team that kinda sucks like Washington or Minnesota or Sacramento or Toronto and finally pull of a win. I mean they did beat the Celtics at home earlier this year. Remember, 2 years ago the Washington Nationals had fewer than 60 wins yet still ended the season on an 8 game winning streak.

                  Pretty sure I've seen the same question posted 10+ times, since the middle of December.

                    I WOULD NEVER BET ON THEM AGAIN...

                    They will win 1 more at most!

                                Cavs= GREAT team to bet against, even double digit spreads. mistakes and scoring are exponential. poor defense, poor offense. Cavs= really good high school team right now. I've been winning many more than i've lost. It's hard putting money on 17 1/2, but just do it every night and you'll win more than you'll lose.

                                        Yes, you're nuts. At least let them show some life by beating somebody before you bet on them.

                                            They do have to win a game eventually. The odds of them going the rest of the season without a win are slim to none.

                                              Here's a thought, instead of trying to figure out a way to bet on the worst team in the league, why not put that same effort into a team that's more consistent???
