NBA Finals Betting - Cavaliers at Spurs Game 2

I went against the Spurs (54-43-2 ATS) in Game1 and it cost me big time. Though the Cleveland Cavaliers (55-42-2 ATS) have the best postseason ATS record in the league this season, they were clearly outplayed in Game 1 almost from the start.
Ironically, as bad as the Cavaliers and LeBron James played, they only lost by nine points, just a point and a half off the 7.5-point Game 1 spread.
With this spread being exactly the same as the previous game, bettors should get a better handle on which team to take in Game 2.
Here are tonight’s trends followed by my NBA Free Pick:
Key Cavaliers Trends
The Cavaliers are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games playing on 2 days rest.

The Spurs may have won Game 1 and covered in the process, but I am going to come right back with the Cavaliers to cover the spread in tonight’s matchup.
This series is going to be a low-scoring defensive affair throughout, which should bode well for the Cavaliers and their wonderful ATS postseason record.
