Cavaliers vs 76ers Prediction
I considered the points with the Cavaliers on Friday night, but then I remembered the Cavs don’t make NBA bettors money. The Cavs didn’t cover numbers last season and are 2-6 ATS so far this season. The 76ers beat the Cavaliers already in a comeback a couple of weeks ago. The 76ers are slowly getting comfortable as they’re 4-0 SU and ATS in their last four games.
The Cavs also lost back-to-back games to the banged-up Thunder. I’m sorry, but if the Cavaliers were in good form or even a good team, they’d be seeing better results right now. The Cavs look flat and aren’t playing with an edge. Maybe the NBA Cup brings out more intensity, but I just can’t get there with a team that doesn’t cash tickets. The chalk is reasonable. Give me the 76ers in another win over Cleveland.
