Brooklyn Nets vs Cleveland Cavaliers prediction
I'm not running to the window to back the Brooklyn Nets, especially on the road, but we're getting a decent amount of points to fade a banged up Cavs side. The Cleveland Cavaliers will still be without Strus, Mobley and Mitchell. That's a lot of key production out for the Cavs, and I'm just not excited to lay big numbers given the injury situation. The Cavs are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games. If forced to get involved in this game, I'm going to grab the points with the Nets as more of a bet against the Cavaliers.
