(NBA) Cleveland vs. Toronto,
Total: 220.00 | -110.00 Over
Result: Loss
Total: 220.00 | -110.00 Over
Result: Loss
This is a 10* TOTAL BLOCKBUSTER on the UNDER between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Toronto Raptors.
We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.
This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant O/U ATS statistics and common sense:
As note that Cleveland has seen the total go UNDER the number in nine of 16 this year against clubs with winning records, while Toronto has seen the total go UNDER the number in four of its last six after allowing 90 points or less in its last outing (the Raptors most recently fell 90-89 at home to the Heat, just their second home loss of the season.)
The bottom line: Clearly DeMar DeRozan and company were caught "looking ahead" this one. The Cavs have lost five of their last seven, most recently a humbling defeat at Minnesota. This is the finale of their road trip and they'll definitely be motivated here to stop the bleeding. We expect this to be a highly competitive battle, where each team pressures the other from start to finish. And in a scenario like that, we expect a slower paced affair. Play the UNDER.
