The James Gang is 19-0 SU and 15-4 ATS in front of the home fans this season and are looking for a little more home loving after Thursday’s 102-93 overtime loss in Chicago as 7.5 point favorites.
The Cavs got out to a quick 13 point lead only to let the Bulls claw their way back in. LBJ shot 8 of 28 from the floor missing 20, yes, count them, 20 shots. Delonte West was injured early in the game and never returned. Probably one of the key's in yesterday's loss.
On 0 days rest the Cavs are 5-2 ATS compared to the Hornets who are 4-3 on 2 days rest and 6-4 ATS in their last 10 against the Cavs. The Hornets have won the last 3 these two teams played and 4 out of the last 5 and beat the Cavs last year at the Q. The also have a 1-0 advantage this year beating the Cavs 104-92 earlier this year in New Orleans.
The Cavs are a good bounce back team and this will be evident tonight. Daniel Gibson will fill in for the injured Delonte West. Gibson has always performed well in front of his home town fans.
I don't want to hear crap about the "L" word either, I don't believe in jinxing a play. Do you really think I have that power? If so, let me be your book.
CAVS -3
Don't think about it, just play it and be happy you did. Good Luck!
