    Scal, once again tremendous effort, deep analysis. and once i saw the early line +4 on marathonbet, i thought about cavs + points, myabe ML. They will be extramotivated for a win, that's for sure. In the end it's a basketball game, and we cannot predict the outcome for 100%. Don't forget that Vegas knows what we know, and a little more. So they know public will be pounding Cavs. And still for me it's Cavs or no play 

    Thanks for your insights, Scal, always love to see a different angles on the game

    The nets Knicks was easy (believe me, there was little doubt)
    The kings Knicks was easy (even more certain than nets Knicks)
    The lakers magic was easy and still won despite a gasol vertigo episode in game

    (FUN FACT: gasol the lakers best player by far, has gone out twice in game, well once right before tip and one at the half, with vertigo. Lakers are 2-0 ats when that happens. This is the nba folks!)

    Don't be afraid of easy game per se. Let Vegas do whatever it wants with a line and you then look at what's in front of you. I've won more money on 'easy' games than you can imagine with the Knicks. 

    Look at the spurs ats in the past 2 months. It's nearly all W's!

    The world was betting in them.

    Easy bet no? Best team in the league on a huge winning streak...

    Still they paid and paid and paid out some more.


    Make your bet appropriately after an official capping (I did that for you here) and leave 'easy' and 'hard' on the doorstep.

    Thanks man.

    I promise you I know more about the Knicks than they do and they can do nothing about it.

    And for regular games that pique your interest, you can know more after researching it extensively and tapping into a team. And I've thought about this very game for a week now.

    Remember they have to set lines for every sport, every night, even soccer in England, tennis in australia and the small time golf tournament. They even set odds for wrestlemania!

    They can and do set poor lines. That is where you make money.

    They've wisely given pause with this one given there is no national line.

    Any points to the cavs is a poor line

I couldn't believe they were giving pts to the hottest team in the nba & I don't care that hawks are home don't mean garbage... The hawks are as cold as they come right now... I plan on doing what I did wed. and that's Knicks straight 1,000 & Cavs straight 1,500 with a scrumptious Cavs/Knicks 1,000 parley might even go 2,000 this time... Going for the repeat and I feel good about it 
    Just to add to it a lil 
    * Atlanta 5-22-1 ATS run 
    * Cavs 5-2 ATS past 7 meetings 
    * Cavs 10-2 ATS past 12 after scoring 100 or more previous game 
    * Cavs 10-4 ATS past 14 road games 

    P.S. some knicks wiz knowledge 
    I love betting the wiz on the road and they have been quite profitable when you find the right situations & systems they fit but that ends today because they're in a rough spot... 

    1. Don't need to elaborate really all I gotta say is bet the knicks for pretty much all the same reasons you bet them against the nets. Unless you were one of those fools going with a hot nets team and didn't realize they didn't stand a chance in hell of pulling that W away from the knicks. Maybe if they were home but that wasn't the case. Yes, I know there is a differnce this isn't that heated rival like nets knicks but they still have plenty to play for and it will be treated exactly like that game.

    2. As I said the wiz has been profitable numerous times on the road and in general but if you look lately that isn't the case anymore. They have really begun to drop off after an impressive strech. This is not the time for a team to start to fall apart cause the competition goes up a level around this time but it's happening.

    3. Injuries could be a part of this with no Nene but is set to return soon but not for the knicks game so that's a win. Bradley Beal dealing with ankle and hip issues and not only that but the Bradley Beal we saw early in the season is no where to be found. This could be because of injury but beal is a very important piece to the puzzle and when he's struggling there is a good chance the team is. Gortat is also not 100% healthy dealing with back problems and has caused him tremendous problems staying consistent on both ends of the floor. You can tell he is a little limited. Another player I'd like to point out and must say I'm a little surprised on how well he has played this year is Trevor Ariza. He is still playing great basketball and above my expectations but if you notice his best play of the year came early and during the wiz impressive stretch. He is still there and a factor but I feel his cooling down with no Nene and Beal really dropping off and dealing with injuries this wiz team does NOT look like it did just a bit ago and like I said the wiz downfall has come at the wrong time and this team is starting to fade a little.

    Some trends 
    * Knicks 18-8 ATS last 26 meetings 
    * Knicks 10-1 ATS last 11 meetings in the Garden

    These are the situations I love cause the wiz are down right horrible after they play a revenge game and that happened to be the Celts. They're a weak 4-17 SU and 6-15 ATS

    Also got to love that knicks are going for some revenge. Add it all up and should be a solid cover and win for the knicks as they hope to slide into the playoffs here late. 


    LOVE the write up  !!! Love it! Thanks for the added info.

    We think alike.

    I have similar bets and my only two bets tonight are the Cavs and Knicks. Only reason I didn't write up the Knicks is that I didn't have much to say after the nets post (can't keep repeating things about the Knicks) but I had a TON to write on the cavs.

    In terms of motivation, the Knicks have the advantage at home over the situation the cavs are in but they are laying a number too.

    Knicks ML is VERY strong and after a hook at The Knicks -3 I am very comfortable.

    Knicks have not accomplished much yet despite what the media says .

    VERY tough schedule ahead. 

    Solution? Win your home games at a bare minimum!

I plan on doing what I did wed. and that's Knicks straight 1,000 & Cavs straight 1,500 with a scrumptious Cavs/Knicks 1,000 parley might even go 2,000 this time... Going for the repeat and I feel good about it 
    Just to add to it a lil 
    * Atlanta 5-22-1 ATS run 
    * Cavs 5-2 ATS past 7 meetings 
    * Cavs 10-2 ATS past 12 after scoring 100 or more previous game 
    * Cavs 10-4 ATS past 14 road games 

    P.S. some knicks wiz knowledge 
    I love betting the wiz on the road and they have been quite profitable when you find the right situations & systems they fit but that ends today because they're in a rough spot... 

    1. Don't need to elaborate really all I gotta say is bet the knicks for pretty much all the same reasons you bet them against the nets. Unless you were one of those fools going with a hot nets team and didn't realize they didn't stand a chance in hell of pulling that W away from the knicks. Maybe if they were home but that wasn't the case. Yes, I know there is a differnce this isn't that heated rival like nets knicks but they still have plenty to play for and it will be treated exactly like that game.

    Hey scal I go big on your plays win or lose I respect your handicapping and insight on plays, not to many people analyze games like you do so that being said  I'm making this a bigger wager than the normal amount I do, More like 3k for me . Also did you say you like the knicks -3.

    I will be taking both ML and side action. As a posted play take the points but I see the Cavs winning outright.

    It will be close but the Cavs almost certainly should win. A true do or die for the Cavs tonight. Lose and they are done with 3 back and 5 left. Win? Everyone's still in, the Cavs inch closer and even the hawks are still in. Not a do or die for them.

    And we get points? This is a game 7 for the Cavs against a very mediocre/weak (32 wins and TEN games below .500 folks,  years ago, that is 10th/11th in the east and not even in the conversation of playoffs) hawks team. But the east is SO bad, we talk of the hawks as a playoff team. They are not one. Not anymore at least.

    Knicks would annihilate this hawks team.
