2 more plays...

I am going to add 2 more plays for tonight...

Cleveland/Brooklyn under 192, laying $110 to win $100 -- No Kylie Irving again tonight for the Cavs and we saw last time out that their offense is out of sync with him missing as they not only miss his 22 PPG but his 6 assists per game...Brooklyn is last in the league in PACE, so this looks to be a boring half-court game with hopefully a lot of bricks going up as the Cavs were 35 points below the total last time out (their first game without Irving in the lineup) and that was an overtime game...

San Antonio Spurs -9.5, laying $110 to win $100 -- Generally speaking, you take the team who just lost an injured superstar because the entire team will rise up and win their first game without their superstar (see Cleveland on Thursday and there are many examples from this season already)...But, to me, the Clips rose up last night to win with Chris Paul (Out 3 to 5 weeks after separating his shoulder last night in case you haven't heard) as Paul went out early in the 2H and LAC had to battle almost an entire half without him to win that game late as the Mavs were up by a point with less than 2 minutes to play before the Clips scored the final 8 points of the game...Add the fact that this is a revenge game for the Spurs, who got trounced by the Clips by 23 at Staples 3 weeks ago and add the fact that the Spurs are 7-0 (6-1 ATS) following losses this year and are in bounce-back mode tonight after losing to the Knicks 2 nights ago, you can bet your bottom dollar that the Spurs aren't feeling sorry for the Clips tonight as this could potentially be a bit of a beat down...
