Bet on NBA - Milwaukee Bucks (+ 7) vs. Cleveland Cavaliers (- 7)
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.
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
