This is a 10* ART OF WAR on the Cleveland Cavaliers.

NBA fans have a way of overreacting to one game in the Playoffs. We won't be making that mistake here. Indiana has already won four of five against the Cavs, including the outright victory in Game 1, but with their backs against the wall, we think that LeBron James and company come to play tonight. The main goal of any visiting team in the Opening Round of the playoffs is to earn a "split" over the first two games on the road, so as to steal the "home court advantage" moving forward. With that mission accomplished for Indiana, we're expecting a classic letdown here. James' leadership has once again been called into question after the Game 1 loss and both he and the rest of the team will be using that as fuel to motivate them in Game 2. We think the situational factors working in favor of the Cavs tonight absolutely warrant a spread of this size. Also note though that the Pacers are just 6-14 ATS this year after a win by ten points or more. Play on CLEVELAND in a big time blowout.
