00:00In Cleveland, not going to have a very far trip, even on the second leg of a back-to-back,

00:04as the Cavs are in Brooklyn tonight to take on the Nets. Cleveland, 13-point favorite.

00:09Two twenty-five and a half is the total. Another large spread. DRS,

00:13first game out of the All-Star break. Can the Nets stay within striking distance?

00:19They probably can. They're bad. But again, the Cavaliers coming out of the break on the road

00:23knowing they have a game in the garden. The one thing that does actually help both of these teams

00:27is the back-to-back for the Knicks is going to be at home. The back-to-back for the Cavaliers

00:31won't necessarily be in the same arena, but still the same city, maybe staying in the same hotel.

00:35So you might get a cleaner product tomorrow night here. But if I'm just going to be true

00:39to what I'm looking at here, I can't tell you, Ben, yeah, we're taking the Cavs by 20-plus

00:43points tonight. Like, no. Just coming off of that break, it leaves a lot to be desired.

00:47And again, if you're offering me two touchdowns on a spread, even with a bad basketball team,

00:52I'm still taking the two touchdowns tonight. I just am. And I guess last night sort of

00:56can jade that thought process because it worked perfectly last night. Why not tonight?

01:00Maybe these teams are bad. They get beat by 30 tonight. That's still a possibility as well.
