2004: 14-10-2

Cleveland -4

Neither team any good at shooting the ball, but the Cav's have the advantage inside with Boozer and Ilgauskas....particularly in rebounding. ***
Oh, and no-one from Miami will be dropping 8/10 3's on them either ;)

League: 9-4 (av. win 11.7) home fav, total <180, 1 day rest off 4- SU win but ats home loss. [Cav's]
57-54-1 (Av. win 6.3) any total
24-19-1 (Av. win 5.9) if opp was last at home.
17-8-1 (Av. win 8.0) if opp off home ats win.

League: 9-13-1 (Av. loss 7.5) away dog, 1 day rest off 10+ SU win as home 4- dog. [Mia]
3-7 (Av. loss 11.0) if opp off ats loss.

Personally think Miami's win over Houston has this line a couple of points lower than it should be.

Good Luck all :cool:

*** EDIT: Like it even more now....Brian Grant has not made the trip to Cleveland.

Thanks guys...

Thanks guys...

Adding....

Utah +4

May be a sucker bet, but still not convinced with Dallas on the road.
Out of 22 road games, they have only won FOUR by more than tonights line. (inc. a 6 point OT win @ NY!).
Dallas clearly can't stop teams from scoring, allowing over 102 ppg away.
Utah are 4th best in the League for FG%!!!!!!!
Yes, Utah lost there last 3 home games, but the last 2 were without Kirilenko, and they blew a big lead and went to OT v. the Cavs.
Dallas playing their 5th game in 7 days, and that MUST take a toll, esp. a hard running, jump shooting team such as Dallas.
Utah won the previous meeting @ home (5/1) 108-94 and out-rebounded them 52-33.
Honestly can't see alot changing from then. Can't really understand why Dallas are favs.

Not surprisingly, Dallas are 0-5 as road favs from -3, -6 thsi year, 6-14 in road games overall, and 3-9 after allowing 105+ points.

Utah play much better defense than Denver, Chicago, Portland AND Seattle, so I can't see any reason why Utah won't win this one SU.

CLEVELAND (AP) -- Cavaliers forward Carlos Boozer missed Wednesday night's game against the Miami Heat so he could be with his family following his grandmother's funeral.

Boozer had planned to fly back from the funeral and arrive right before tipoff. However, after traveling to Washington D.C. for the funeral, he decided to remain with his grieving family.

``It's something you have to deal with,'' Cavs coach Paul Silas said. ``His mom is not doing well and he wants to be with her.''

Kdogg....

Boozer attended Grandmother's funeral today but will fly back for the game.
His plane is due between 6.30 - 7.00 tonight.
Straight to the arena and onto court as soon as he arrives.

Hopefully sooner rather than later!

Battie planning to play tonight tho....Should be able to hold his own until Boozer gets there.

(All this from Cleveland press)
