00:008 p.m. Eastern, so why don't we go there?
00:02It's the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Detroit Pistons from Motown in a series, Joe.
00:07Tied 2-2.
00:08Line opened up at 3-1⁄2.
00:10Most outlets are sitting at between 3-1⁄2,
00:12and now some fours starting to break through.
00:14The total in this game, which opened up at 2-11-1⁄2.
00:17Now we're sitting mostly at 2-12-1⁄2 across the board.
00:21The best of three, Pistons have home court advantage.
00:24Holding home court, the key ingredient here, Joe,
00:27but could we see an upset today with the Cavaliers riding a hot streak?
00:31Let's see what happens, Joe.
00:33Cavaliers, Pistons, give me a spread line tonight.
00:35Well, they'd have to, you know, break one of their own streaks, Donnie,
00:39if the Cavs are going to do that because they have not won a game
00:42in the playoffs on the road, 0-5 so far.
00:46So they're going to have to do something different here
00:49if they're going to win a game and the all-important Game 5, Donnie,
00:53but I have said this for a while.
00:55The Cleveland Cavaliers' offensive ceiling is a million miles above
01:01what Detroit is, all right?
01:02Anybody expecting Karis Levert to drop another 20-plus points in a game?
01:07Yeah, no.
01:09We know it's Cade Cunningham or bust for the Pistons,
01:12and that's a very risky proposition when you're playing the same team, Donnie,
01:17in a seven-game series.
01:19There's not a lot of tricks you can pull out of the bag here to fake them out.
01:24So it doesn't surprise me that the whole world is on Detroit here
01:29because all we keep seeing is tickets and money coming Detroit's way right now.
01:33This thing is even at 4-1⁄2 in some spots after it opened at 3-1⁄2.
01:38I don't know that the total is going to do a whole lot of moving
01:41because I think if people believe Detroit's going to win this,
01:44I think they believe the under.
01:46But if the Cavs win this, I believe that's correlated to the over.
01:50So pick your streak.
01:51Is it the home teams keep winning,
01:53or do the Cavs finally have an opportunity
01:56and put it together on the road to take a 3-2 lead?
