Vegas knows it's coming...Cavs -1 vs. Detroit

[Fang-Banger]

They break the streak tonight!! Book it!!

[opie1988]

Its been a long time since Cleveland has seen a - in front of its number.

I agree with Fang-Banger.

[Philavanh]

Not sure about that one.....Detroit might be able to pull off a "W"

[Fang-Banger]

It happens and happens quite easily. Book it

[RollPlayer]

Gotta back Detroit on the moneyline. Gamblers fallacy, just because something happens doesnt mean it is less likely to happen in the future. Cavs are a terrible team, with the way theyve been playing they arent anywhere near due for a win

[Deuce]

Detroit wins. They are playing tough. Going to be a double digit loss again for Cavs.

[chase hardy]

you never bet against a losing team on a streak! Thats called chasing and it never works!!

[csm506]

I like Detroit as well wait until Washington comes to town with their 0 for on the road.

[face]

pistons were playing great tonight, had No. 1 team on the ropes for three quarters

[Wreckloose]

Spurs were up 5 after three quarters, I don't know if I would call that on the ropes.

[EmpireMaker]

Winning a game requires playing at least half way decent basketball, not sure Cleveland is capable !!!

[illmatick]

pass,I'll wait until I seem them win one

[romecloneout]

alll in on my cavs

[BreakdaBank161]

Vegas Knows Something but Detroit Did Play Spurs Nicely Untill 4th i dont TRUST IT I WOULD LEAVE IT ALONE!

[OmgUrMom]

how can they be favored

people have to stop using these terms so loosely. gambler's fallacy is only if you bet blindly. detroit on a back to back and cavs has played blazers grizzlies pacers AND mavs very closely in their last 4 matches, and those are all playoff caliber teams. Cavs are more determined than ever, and has reasons to justify a line like this. I'm not saying if one should cap the cavs or detroit, but this is by no means gambler's fallacy unless you bet cavs saying "oh they have to win some time"

[secretstash]

simply put they are favored for these 3 reasons.

1-detroit played last night and lost stamina against spurs(when detroit loses it normally is double digits)
2-cleveland hung with dallas down to wire 2 days ago and are fed up with losing(their last 4 games all 7 pts or less and they had chances to win)
3-cleveland is at home and detroit is a below average team (let alone on the road. yuck(8-19))

the line is right.. imo

People are speaking down on Cleveland being favored... at HOME... against the PISTONS. As if they're some kind of world beaters themselves.

And it's only a measly point.

The better team of late has been Cleveland. They've played some quality teams close over the last week or so. Cleveland .5/PK or no play.

[Masu485]

I wonder how they'll celebrate after they finally get a win.

Maybe King James will host a celebration party for them

[King Mayan]

I feel bad for Byron Scott...

[Hotdiggity11]

Cleveland should just say "Screw it" and set a losing streak that will never be broken. How about 35-40?

Secure themselves a place in history forever

[Raider3]

I think they will come out strong against Detroit. I'll probably end up playing 1st quarter and 1st half.

[nastradamus]

yeap 1Q can be nice bet!

[aceking]

they are throwing games to get another 1st pick draft .

[Roadtrip635]

As desperate as Cleveland is, no team wants to be the team to break their streak. Detroit played fairly well before losing to the Spurs, I think Detroit has enough to win in close game.

[Pauulzcappin]

Detroit usually plays up to competition. Might be a no show tomorrow after playing the Spurs close until 2 minutes left in the 4th.

[denn333]

cavs at home, pistons flat.

[nyed1010]

linesmakers got this way wrong, should be -2.5 detroit.

[k13]

they are throwing games to get another 1st pick draft .

then they'll lose the lottery anyway

All Excellent points. Another factor maybe that the Cavs guys are playing hard to be traded. Yahoo rumors is saying there is interest in Jamison and Mo.

I personally like Detroit. Im picking the Cavs to get their win at home vs. Washington after they lose to Detroit and LA.

[Bulldog-53]

They broke the record for losses, might as well keep it rocking. Give me Pistons +1

[rfr3sh]

I think 70-80% of people are going to back detroit ...and you know how that ends
