Cleveland ML (-220)
The number (-5.5) is low to me and scares me a bit for a back door cover. Free throws win this one going away. I have Cleveland between 5 & 7 points.


Usually, game 3 is the game where the road team has to withstand the energy of the crowd and the WILL of the home team. Most times it is hard to overcome. Not tonight. Detroit is two games away from "gone fishin" as Kenny Smith says. I look at their lineup and cannot find where 90 points are going to come from. I think their will is broken. THIS IS NOT A UTAH TEAM LIKE LAST NIGHT - DON'T CONFUSE AND COMPARE THE TWO !!!

I mean Stuckey is an admiral ball handler and Rip can score. But, Sheed is washed up and if McDyess doesn't have a big game they are destined for more of the same in game 2. Detorit's bench sucks - so when the reserves come in, the long periods of non scoring occur.

Cleveland is on a mission - there starting 5 is solid - they sweep in four. On the road they won't rest any players in the 4th Q so expect a full game of Lebron none of this jump out to an early lead and then let the other team back in the game chit.

THEN !!!!
When Cleveland wins game 3 - bet the over (Don't care what it is) in Game 4. Detroit won't put forth the effort of any defense and try to outscore the opponent to win since the Cleve is better at playing D-Ball then Detroit. (When you're down 0-3 - NBA players say (Fck Defense - just shoot it)
