Wednesday NBA Rest Report and Basketball Pick Against The Spread

Joe Duffy
Dec 15, 2010

The real Matt Rivers of OffshoreInsiders.com has aย NBA betting pickย Wednesday is on the Cleveland Cavaliers +16.5.

Do I think that Lebronโ€™s former team has any chance to beat LeBronโ€™s current team? Of course not; this is as lopsided of a gameย asย there might possibly be in the entire NBA.

But with that said, there is still a little bad blood between these players and after getting absolutely bushwhacked at homeย a few weeks ago, I can see these Cavaliers play one of their better games of the season.

The Cavs have certainly been reeling big time ever since that defeat, unlike the Heat who have surged into clear elite status.

So, in terms of the talent and the hotter team, itโ€™s not even a contest as they win hands down. LeBron, D Wade and Bosh will win this game and could do so going away but guys like Mo Williams, Antawn Jamison and Boobie Gibson among a few others would love nothing less than to get a little vengeance at the hands of their former teammate.

Itโ€™s probably asking too much to actuallyย walk off of the court as the victor, but these guys are still professionals that should be properly motivated in this game.

It may be aย 15-pointย Miami lead at the break, as that is certainly possible, but in the end I canโ€™t help but grab this gaudy number in this spot and expect theย Cavs to perform better tonight in South Beach than they did atย Quicken Loans Arenaย a few weeks back in the Kingโ€™s return.

The pick: Cleveland

For more information:ย The Knicks and Celtics have won a combined 18 straight games. Both have obviously been on-fire but one will continue the run today while the other shrivels up a bit.
