I love this line and even though the teams aren't anywhere close to being competitive against one another, will we see some antics tonite? The Cavs have been in 5th gear crushing and at the right time considering they are about a week away from their third straight trip to the finals. Lebron is going for history tonite and IT has been summoned to sit by many. Homecourt was "lost" by the Cavs to this Celtics team and now up 2-0 the Cavs bring the Celtics into Cleveland. I ask this question: does it make any sense at this this stage in the playoffs to take the Celtics lightly even though IT isn't playing? Do you think lebron is going to let up tonite? What about the bench players that never get any minutes? Don't you think they ball out considering they will probably get valuable minutes in the finals where every man will be needed against the dubs? Why put a governor on a Ferrari that is going 200 right now? I ask this becuase there is nothing the Celtics can do tonite to cover this spread. The ones who have total control are th Cavs. They will decide. We've seen the antics with the Cavs before in these type games but the Cavs have been relentless. The Cavs have given the middle finger to the league and the books by destroying everything in sight. Or wait.....maybe this is all part of the plan? Hmmmmm. 17 is a lot of points but the books know that people will feel this way. It's a historic line and with that, do you think with all the notches the Cavs and lebron have been placing on their belts, they won't want to make this theirs too? Nobody has yet to give any valid reasons on taking the Celtics. I just hear about the backdoor cover. Well.....I have a plan tonite and I hope it works. I'm going to go with the Cavs thinking that they will want to get out fast if there is any feeling of sitting guys- so I will go with them the first 24 minutes here. Let's see if we can keep the "W" train a rollin in the right direction with this one.

Cavs -11.5 FIRST HALF

GL ALL

Another W with the Cavs first half cover!

Like the Dubs, when the Cavs want to play, regardless if the opposition has their superstar or not, they ball out. The "W" train is a rollin, she is howling......let's see if we can continue to keep her going in the right direction.
