“OKAY” BET (2 stars / 5):
I like the Bulls +5.5 against the Cavaliers. 78% of the bets have gone on Cleveland so far, but the line hasn’t moved yet. Chicago will try to sweep the 4-game series after winning 111-105 at home and beating the Cavs twice on the road (106-94 and 117-99). As a matter of fact, the Bulls have won 6 of the last 7 matchups against Cleveland. They are 6-0 against the spread when facing the Cavs over the last 6 meetings. Pretty impressive! The Bulls have lacked consistency all year, but they haven’t done badly since losing Dwayne Wade to an injury (they managed to beat Utah and Milwaukee). Their worst outing over their last 8 games was a 10-point loss.
Some of the Cavs players have hinted some locker room issues, as the team is on a 7-10 stretch. Cleveland coach Tyronn Lue mentioned he would rest players in some of the remaining regular season games, but not tonight. However, Lebron James did leave Monday’s game with back stiffness after taking an elbow to the spine, and he is certainly not 100%. Cleveland’s defense has been pretty bad which made coach Lue tell reporters that “teams are so much faster than us.” I’m definitely taking the Bulls in this one.
Have fun watching the games!
