Picking the Cleveland Cavaliers Over the San Antonio Spurs
(Odds for the Cleveland Cavaliers ML is currently around 1.59.)
The San Antonio Spurs are slumping a bit going 1-6 in their last 7 games. That sounds bad but all those teams they lost to are pretty good and have an over .500 record. Spurs are still dangerous. The Cleveland Cavaliers are 5-1 in their last 6, which is pretty good, except for that disappointing home loss to the John Wall-less Washington Wizards in the first game after the All Star Break. The reason I'm leaning towards the Cleveland Cavaliers is that while the Spurs are good, they do have a 13-19 road record. The Cleveland Cavaliers are 20-8 at home. I think the Cavs evens up the season series today...
My pick is the Cleveland Cavaliers ML.
(I am currently in the negative with my picks. Game starts in about ? hour ? minutes.)

Cleveland Cavaliers leading 53-50 at the half. Not really surprised this game is close. Though I am starting to wonder if the Cleveland Cavaliers early success after the trade was just temporary...
Game no longer close. Spurs up by 11 in 4Q.
San Antonio Spurs won 110-94 (Final). Cavs after the trade mojo seems to be gone now. I currently have a pick losing streak going.
