This is a 10* O/U COAST-TO-COAST ASSASSIN on the OVER between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Sacramento Kings.
For a number of different reasons, I look for this total to eclipse the posted number as the game comes down the stretch. Cleveland is without super star LeBron James in the lineup and is on the verge of dropping to .500 for the first time in over six weeks; as I always like to say though: "Desperation breeds motivation." I think that Cleveland comes to play today for sure. Most recently the Cavs lost 112-94 at Golden State, their first stop on a five-game road swing vs. the West, newly acquired JR Smith had 27 points in the setback: "I think we get tired down the stretch and we make some mistakes, and perhaps we let down a little bit defensively," Cavaliers coach David Blatt said last night. "Some of that is fatigue and maybe even over the course of the game you get worn down a little bit, but again, our guys really, really competed. ... We just have to be better with the ball and not lose our intensity level towards the end." A date vs. the defensively challenged Kings is just what the doctor ordered to get untracked, they're giving up 104.2 points per game for one of the league's worst marks. Most recently Sacramento lost 118-108 to Denver on Friday, allowing the Nuggets to shoot a season-high 55.3 percent from the floor. From a trend based stand point, this play is about as strong as you could possibly ask for as note that Cleveland has seen the total go OVER the number in five of nine as an underdog this year, while Sacramento has seen it sail above the posted number in 11 of 15 when playing the role of favorite and in nine of 12 after scoring 105 points or more. In my opinion, the situation, the numbers and the trends do all indeed point to the OVER as the sharp move here.
