Cleveland Cavaliers vs Brooklyn Nets prediction
The Cleveland Cavaliers have been on a tear over the last month, both SU and ATS, and they’re as healthy as they’ve been in quite some time. The Brooklyn Nets are not only piling up the losses, but a once profitable team has dropped to 23-25-2 ATS on the season. The Nets are also going to be without Johnson, Finney-Smith and Walker for this contest. The Cavs have won 4 straight games against the Nets, which includes a 9 point win last month. I have to lay the points with the Cavaliers on the road.
