Point Spread: -5.00 | -105.00 Cleveland (Home)
Result: Push
Point Spread: -5.00 | -105.00 Cleveland (Home)
Result: Push
The Cavs got a little lucky at the end of Game 4 in Chicago, but they head back home with this series tied 2-2, and momentum on their side. The Bulls really missed Pau Gasol in Game 4, and he's not expected to return tonight.
Here are my keys to the game:
1. Home Cookin' - The Cavs boast a home record of 34-11, and they've won three of their last four at home versus Chicago. The home team has covered the spread in five of the last seven meetings between these two teams.
2. LeBron James - He had a tough night in Game 4 in Chicago, shooting just 10-of-30 from the field. It was the final shot that mattered most though, as he hit the game winner at the buzzer. LeBron scored 33 points in Game 2 in Cleveland, and he appears to be primed for another big game at home tonight.
3. X-Factor - The Cavaliers are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.
Selection: This is a play on the Cleveland Cavaliers (5*)
