Question Chasing Cavs moneyline?

Does it make sense?

They can't lose forever? What's the best way to do it and make money?

Oh and are the Cavs worst team ever?

How'd they win 8 games? Can you believe they had a 3 game winning streak in November? They have won one time in December, January and now February when they beat the Knicks.

Could you play on a team that loses every day like this?

Right now they plus 4 at home against Clippers tonight. Haven't seen the ML yet.

always been told to ride the streak...betting with the streak you can only lose 1 time...betting against the streak you can lose multiple times

not a big NBA fan, but isn't there a chance when they play the Wizards that two streaks meet up with the Wizards road losing streak, or did that end?

T B Bucs lost 26 in a row..Isn't that about the same as Cleveland losing 150? Tough to chase that number

Casinos have table limits to keep chases in hand..Just a thought

one would hope so...seeing the wizards haven't won a road game all season....if they can't beat them in that situation, then they may not win a game again this season

I wouldn't advocate chasing the Cavs ML because it won't pay enough the cover your potential loses. I played the Cavs ML 2 times during the losing streak. In both situations it was more about the Cavs having a chance to win than the streak. Of course they lost both, but did cover ATS. The Cavs are bad, but if you look at the ATS record you'll notice they are 3-1-1 ATS in the last 5. Some of the upcoming match ups favor taking the Cavs ATS as everyone knows they are bad and will pile on the favorite.

That being said, without looking closely the Clips are a horrible matchup for the Cavs. Clips should roll.
