Bet on NBA - Milwaukee Bucks (+ 7) vs. Cleveland Cavaliers (- 7)
BetUS: The
Milwaukee Bucks travel to Cleveland and, even
though they are getting 7 points, things just
don’t look good for this
team. The Cavaliers are 10 and 14 on the
year, but they have shown that they can turn
things around when Lebron “King” James
is on and Donyell Marshall is dropping those
threes.
I suspect that
Cleveland will start to put together some
win streaks this year. Why not start one
versus a Milwaukee Bucks team that lost
to the Seattle Supersonics? The Sonics
are terrible. Any team that loses to them
gets a big “ding” in
my book.
The trends, thank goodness, also point to
the Cavaliers absolutely destroying the Buck:
The Cleveland Cavaliers are 23 and 9 against
the spread in their last 32 versus a team
from the NBA Central Division.
The Cleveland Cavaliers are 20 and 8 against
the spread in their last 28 Monday games.
The Milwaukee Bucks are 10 and 13 overall
against the spread this year.
King James just has too much pride to let
the Cavs lose to someone like the Bucks.
The big question is what will happen in this
game? Will the Cavs cover?
That’s a key question because the
Cavs have a tendency to play very badly at
times. If James isn’t on, which is
rare, the Cavs sort of fold together like
a soft taco. So, again, will the Cleveland
Cavaliers cover what could turn out to be
8 points or more?
I have to believe
that they will. Like I wrote above, the
Cavaliers have too much talent for a Bucks
team that just doesn’t
know how to play team basketball. The Cavs
are at home, Lebron has been playing well,
and the Bucks are one of the worst teams
in the NBA betting.
If the line stays under 10, then the Cavs
are an excellent wager.
The BetUS betting
line is Cleveland Cavaliers – 7
against the spread at home versus the Milwaukee
Bucks.
NBA Free Pick:
The
Cavs should beat the Bucks by at least 10
in this one. The Bucks might make a game
of it until the fourth quarter, but, then
the Cavs talent will take over
