I just made 2 Futures bets on the Cleveland Cavaliers

[stevenash]

Their top 2 players (Darius and Jarrett) are out. Have you paid any attention to this season at all or to what The Cavs are doing?

You're as corny as your profile picture.

[JIBBBY]

Very strong start.

Shot my load prematurely. Great start weak ass finish!!

[stevenash]

Shot my load prematurely. Great start weak ass finish!!

Like the age old adage reads, "it's not how you start, but how you finish"

I have a philosophy I like to preach to anybody that'll listen.

The secret to successful trend betting is to get on them right as they start, and get off right before they end.

With all due respect to my bud Mac, this starts a downward trend for the Cavs (imo) and might be worth a fade for awhile going forward.

[JIBBBY]

^When the Cavs were up big after one quarter the Pelicans were +1200 to win live. Who would have known?

I thought about hedging that for security just on the initial investment but said no way the Cavs have this why waste the money!!

Just sharing the what if's... Errrrr...

Oh, I agree. This injury to Rubio leaves the Cavs with just 3 guards, Kevin Pangos (the only true PG), Okoro and Valentine. Neither of them are great ball handlers, none of them can create for themselves or their teammates. Garland and Rubio made the offense go. When Rubio went down all hope was lost. There's a few solid GLeague PGs out there but I'm no sure they can even trade for any?

I hate to say it but this might be an opportunity to look at Ben Simmons if Rubio is out for the season. There's been a few rumors that the 6ers have reached out to the Cavs for a few weeks now. I really didn't like the idea but the more I think about it, it may be a huge move. It all depends what they'd have to give up. Garland, Jarret and Mobley would be untouchable but I also think Okoro could be a good one. Maybe trade Sexton, Rubio or Love and one other piece. Most likely Okoro or Markannen.

Love and Okoro maybe, but I think Philly can find a deal they like more. And Cleveland doesn't have much draft capital.

The 6ers have been doing the calling, so they definitely see some bodies that they want. Most likely Garland, who no way I trade.


Rubio done for the year. Torn ACL. The Cleveland curse continues.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Can you believe this shit? No way this could happen???

But I think the Cavs should seriously kick the tires on Goran Dragic. He would be a very similar fit to Rubio. Toronto is done with him. Could probably trade for him with peanuts or wait until February deadline and get him for free?

Rubio out with the knee tells me the gravy train has ended. I'm out on the Cavs!

May begin fading soon.

Definitely worth fading until Garland comes back. They are +3.5 to the Wizards tonight. I really don't see how they score??? Under 103.5 seems too easy??

I may still try the CAVS first quarter only tonight against the Wiz.

The Cavs seem to always start off red hot in games. They could still continue that trend. They just can't sustain in games and begin to fade then after.

[stevenash]

Cavs in serious talks with Lakers and Rondo.
I'd rather take a shot with Simmons.

I rostered Love at PF and Gafford at C
Both gave me over 6x value.
Used Beal at SG, had no space for Embid or Freak.
Still looking at an 80 dollar DFS cash.

I still maintain (and proving it) there is money to be made in the dailies, problem is the dopey 12 percent rake.
But they're fun and I'm turning a profit, nothing life changing, but a profit.

I love the dailies because it keeps you up to date on all the players.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Good point Nasher. Only way to keep up.

Cavs on fade until Garland comes back. Understand on auto play.

I mean yeah, the rake is stupid, but if you do your home work and put in an hour or so a day into it, you can turn a buck into a hundy.
I play single entries only, fuk that multiple entry shit, that's for syndicates that pool their money and max out 20 lineups, not for me.

I'll do my homework, enter my best salary capped lineup, you ( not you Mac) put up your best lineup, let's go.

I play ten dollar one entry games at DK and FD, four times a week.
I have my own database, and I use Rotowire too, the best in the industry.
I get their premium product free since i contribute to the site.

NBA is not hard, concentrate on the rotation, pay attention to the bench guys who may get an extended run due to injuries is key.
That separates the sharps from the fish, you can't roster Joker and Harden on the same entry unless you balance it out with a RJ Hampton or a guy like Thybulle at forward for instance.

The average Joe doesn't know what Corey Kispert does off the bench for Washington.
They just signed Wannamaker I see.

Yeah, fantasy all about the homework. I don't do it, but it seems to do it right the homework would be endless. You really have to dedicate yourself. Too much work.

I pounded the WIZ in the second half line as I knew the Cavs were gonna absolutely fold in the second half which they did. It paid off ..

Let's win that money Stevie!! Can absolutely win on the dailies if you pay close attention to the teams and know the players.

[Str8Mush4Life]

penetrating Cavs - I was ONE Dean Wade steal away from hitting a +9700 10-leg prop parlay

[rm18]

What about getting Lebron back as a rental he can just resign with Laker after next season? They can trade the injured guys and would basically coast to a championship if they traded Sexton, Rubio, and Markannen for Lebron and Melo and Howard.

[Str8Mush4Life]

So the Lakers give up Melo, Bron and Dwight for Markannen and two players that won't see the floor for the rest of the season?

Rondo on his way to Cavs.

[stevenash]

^
Over/Under is one week before he pisses off the entire state of Ohio.

Under for the max please.

[Bostongambler]

What’s this his 97th team

[stevenash]

What’s this his 97th team

At least.

He's already pissed off the state of California, and you would know this better than I, I think you guys still want to hang Rondo up by his balls outside the TD Garden.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Yeah, it's a lot of work, which is why guys dedicated can make the money. I can respect that.
