Solid 1st half but not sure I'm a fan of rondo jacking up all these 3s.

He made like 2 of his first 3 then he missed his last 3. He's worked on his jump shot. He was hitting them at a high clip in LA. If you're open, you need to shoot. Look at Nurkic. He's like 17% from 3 but hit both 3 pointers he took in the first half.
Man, I got a bad line with the -1.5 3rd quarter. I picked up another line at pickem, even money. I don't care. I think Portland pretty much shot their wads. This 2nd half might be a blowout.Comment -
Once in a while? Have you been keeping up? The Cavs have been covering and making me money and several other posters like a fukking ATM. Just because you don't have a checking account, doesn't mean you can't join in.

Blazers was hitting every damn thing tonight. I'm talking highly contested 3s were going in. Plus they had a shit ton of extra possessions with offensive rebounds. Good thing the Cavs took care of the ball and not turned it over. Cavs win and cover.
Cavs about to get back to their covering ways. Rondo will give Garland the extra minutes rest he'll need. The ATM is back open.

like i said this guy has been getting completely destroyed here and lost a lot of money for people
but i will continue to let everyone know when to jump on
this team is going nowhere in the playoffsComment -
Cavs delivered yesterday! They're back!! 1Q, Half, and game bets all cashed!! Love when that happens.

Cavs on another brutal West coast trip. The schedule has been crazy for the Cavs. They'll have to navigate the Warriors and Jazz here. I'm hoping they can at least split or dare I say win both those games. Losing Okoro for the next few weeks did not help their perimeter defense but I like what I saw in Rondo last night.Cavs delivered yesterday! They're back!! 1Q, Half, and game bets all cashed!! Love when that happens.https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/clevela...rs-2022010722/
Hopefully, they get back to their winning ways. I'm curious what the line for tomorrow will be. I'm back on the Cavs train for sure.

I do think you need to pick your spots betting this Cavs team going forward especially on the road. At home though I'm on them like clock work still.Comment -
playoff teams usually compete every night even on the road against decent opponents
they don't get annihilatedComment -
Mac, I'm glad they got the win at Portland. This is going to be a very tough Western road swing.Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?Comment -
If the starters play then Sacramento is in trouble tomorrow.........
Take one on the chin every once in awhile......Comment -
They've had the toughest schedule in the league, battled Covid (every player on the team has had it at the worst times) injuries to Mobley, Garland, Okoro, DWade, Windler and season ending injuries with Rubio and Sexton. They can't seem to catch a break. Hopefully things will stabilize and they can get back to playing high level.
I didn't watch the game tonight but looks like they struggled to score especially Garland, Mobley and Allen. The defense is there but they have to get better offensively. KLove had 2 points??? WTF? The Warriors have the best defense in the league but ouch.Comment -
Passed on Cavs vs GS last night and passing on Cavs vs Sac tonight on a back to back and on the road..
Just can't pull the trigger on that!! Gotta pick your spots going forward. Patients is virtue.Comment -
Keep up the faith Jibbby. I knew they wouldn't cover vs GS and Klay coming back. This game tonight vs Sac they have to have.
1st quarter cash money.
Sac having all kinds of issues scoring. This should be an easy double digit win if they don't choke in the 3rd quarter like they've been doing of late.Comment -
Didn't put anything on the game but did sprinkle some easy Cav props to wrap up this 10-legger for $1.50
Comment -
Cavs covered in 1st and half bets. I missed out tonight
.. I got cold feet and passed!!
This Cavs team remains spunky as hell in the 1st quarter and half time bets. Box scores don't lie!!
Comment -
Cavs with the blowout win. 1st quarter, 1st half, game, ML cash that bitch.
I think the Cavs our back to their winning ways here.
Woohoo!Comment -
The Cleveland Cavaliers and general manager Koby Altman have agreed to a contract extension through the 2027-2028 season, sources told The Athletic on Tuesday, confirming ESPN's initial report. His new title will be president of basketball operations.
Altman, 39, was promoted from assistant GM to general manager in 2017, taking over for David Griffin. He signed a three-year deal before receiving an extention in 2019. He has been with the organization since joining as a pro personnel manager in 2012.
The Cavaliers are currently sixth in the Eastern Conference standings at 23-18 following Monday night's 109-108 win over the Kings.
Why did Cleveland extend Altman?
Kelsey Russo, Cavaliers beat writer: In the last three seasons, Altman has been at the helm of the rebuild and reshaped the Cavs’ roster through the draft, key trades and signings. Altman drafted key players like Darius Garland, Collin Sexton, Isaac Okoro and Evan Mobley, and traded for Jarrett Allen — who they also cemented as a piece of their future with his five-year contract in the offseason — and Ricky Rubio.
The Cavs’ 23-18 record this season also plays a factor, as the Cavs took the necessary jump in the rebuild where wins mattered more, and now are in the conversation for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. The Cavs also recently extended coach J.B. Bickerstaff through the 2026-27 season, so Altman’s extension lines up with Bickerstaff. And the two have built a partnership since Bickerstaff became head coach to help get Cleveland where it is today.
Biggest decisions ahead for the Cavaliers
Russo: There are some important decisions that Altman and the Cavs will have to consider, both before the trade deadline and/or again this summer, particularly with their backcourt. The Cavs and Sexton did not come to an agreement on a contract extension before the 2021-22 season began, so Sexton can become a restricted free agent this offseason.
Rubio is in the final year of his contract, and as The Athletic reported on Jan. 10, teams are showing interest around Rubio's expiring deal. Rubio is out for the remainder of the season after a torn ACL; he played a large factor in the Cavs’ early success in the season.
What Altman has meant to the organization
Russo: He’s meant a lot as the GM to help the Cavs through their rebuild. He became GM in July 2017, a year after the Cavs won the NBA title. The past three seasons have had their ups and downs, in terms of win/loss records, multiple coaching changes and struggles with some players not working out in Cleveland. The rebuild took its bumps.
But overall, Altman has helped the Cavs reach this point in their rebuild and the Cavs have turned the corner as their young players have grown and established themselves as key players in their success this season.

Nasher - did you know that Altman is the first GM Dan Gilbert has ever signed an extension? Unbelievable. He's always gotten rid of GMs including David Griffin which a lot of people did not agree with but Altman is making a lot of great moves while Griffin can't get shit right. Gilbert has been having health issues which has probably helped by him not being so involved. He also probably realized that he needs to step back and not be a meddling owner.
The Cavs desperately need a closer. Sexton is the guy. I really hope they can renew his contract. He's really the missing piece. The kids is a beast. He would be great coming off the bench and in crunch time. It'd be awesome if he could heal up in time for the playoffs.Comment -
Man, I was chilling by the pool tonight and wasn't able to bump this thread before the game. This was a game to hammer (which I did). Utah without Gobert was basically free money. They are going to struggle until he comes back.Comment -
I don't know how the Jazz was favored in this game? Weird line. The Jazz are the last team to be hit by Covid, so they're short handed. This is their 5th straight loss. Then Joe Ingles went stupid and got ejected in the first half. Game was pretty much over by then. The Jazz never led in the game tonight.
We really need to hammer games like this. It was the perfect storm. I've seen a bunch of games this season where I just knew one team was severely undermanned, especially the Cavs when Garland went out with Covid. Those were games we have to fade for huge profits. The Jazz is one of the best teams in the NBA when they're at full strength. Hard to really gauge how good teams really are when so many guys are a coin flip of playing.Comment -

Gunslinger - man Garland getting Covid then Rubio getting hurt really killed the Cavs for a few weeks. They were about to make a nice run until lightning hit twice (Rubio and Sexton). It's going to be tough to win the Central moving forward, especially with the Bulls playing so well (so glad they lost last night) and the Bucks right there. The Cav's had a brutal schedule but should open up nicely after this West coast trip. If they can stay healthy, I still think they can make a run for the division.Comment -
Clarkson was dead eye from distance.
That team isn't the same without Gobert, but did you ever notice when he sits Royce plays like Bill Russell.
Utah's my favorite team, Royce O'Neale frustrates me to no end.
He plays like all universe one game and the next he turns into a hamburger.Comment
