Bulls line moves 2.5 pts?

My book now has Bulls -5?? Whats up with that? I sure like Cavs plus 6 (buying a point) but that is too suspicious for me to move on...

Actually that makes plus 5 even more enticing the more I think about it...I will put a small half unit on the Cavs plus 6 (take a point) and 1 unit on the under...

BJ and others at +5.5, too.

I see LeBron supposed to rest tomorrow. Is there an update? Is he officially out tonight?

Yeah, settled out at +7 at most places. Incredible middle chance if you grabbed an early Chi -2, and if your book didn't cancel your bet because the move was too big.

5-point gap? Anything's possible. Dick Bavetta is there, plus the "1st game with star out" scenario, although I don't know if there's a big difference when it's rest compared to injury.
