Bulls at Cavs Odds

November 5, 2009

Take a look at Jack Jones’ free NBA prediction for Thursday on the Cavs & Bulls UNDER 191.5. Here is why:

Look for a low-scoring game tonight in Cleveland between the Bulls and Cavaliers. The Cavs areplaying extraordinary defense again this season, allowing 90.4 points/game on the season and 88.0 points/game at home. The Bulls have played solid defense, allowing 94.7 points/game on the year. But offensively they have scrambled, scoring just 88.0 points/game. Cleveland isn’t blowing anybody away with their scoring, averaging 95.2 points/game overall and 93.7 points/game at home. Both teams would have to average 96 points tonight to go over the posted number and I just don’t see that taking place. Cleveland is 24-12 UNDER as a favorite of double digits over the last 2 seasons. The UNDER is 11-2 in Cavaliers last 13 games as a favorite of 11.0 or more. Take the UNDER.
