NBA | Cavs vs Warriors
Play on: Cavs +12½ -105 at BMaker

This is a 1* Free Play on the Cleveland Cavaliers.
History is not on LeBron James’ side against the Warriors. GS took both regular season meetings between the clubs, but it’s important to note though that each was before Cleveland overhauled its line-up at the trade deadline. This isn’t a matchup that suits the Cavs, as the Warriors perimeter offense has gotten the better of The King in two of the last three NBA Finals. But the Warriors look more susceptible than they ever have after needing seven games to get by the Houston Rockets (and they likely would have lost if Chris Paul had suited up.) Houston has laid the blue-print on how to slow down the Warriors and we think that Tyrone Lue will have his role players ready to duplicate its performance. Also note that the Cavs are 12-6 ATS in their last 18 after allowing 85 points or less in their previous contest, while the Warriors are just 6-11 ATS this year when playing with two days of rest. Consider CLEVELAND in Game 1.

Thu MLB Free Pick

LA Angels vs. Detroit, 05/31/2018 13:10 EDT

Total: -105/+9½ Over

Sportsbook:
PinnacleSports

MIT Thursday MLB Free Pick: OVER 9.5 runs in Detroit - Entering Wednesday's action, Tigers games against teams with a winning record had an O/U of 11-5 this season. Also, as a home dog of +175 or more, Detroit had an O/U of 6-3 their last 9. Regardless of the final Wednesday outcome, those are strong angles and the pitching match-up here also favors the over. The Angels Andrew Heaney is having issues with command and has walked 8 in his last two starts. The Tigers Ryan Carpenter has struggled in limited action at the MLB level but even more concerning for him is that he has a 5.27 ERA at the AAA level in his minor league career. Both starters get into trouble early and often in what should be a high-scoring early game Thursday. MIT Free Pick: OVER 9.5 runs in Detroit

Thursday night comp play winner is the Yankees and Orioles to put some runs on the scoreboard at Camden Yards with Sonny "50 Runs of" Gray on the hill against Andrew Cashner.

These teams have already posted Overs in 3 of their first 4 meetings this year, including Gray's lone start versus the O's that saw the Yankees take it 8-3.

Both Gray and Cashner have had major issues this year in keeping crooked digits off of the scoreboard when they take the mound. Gray sports a sky-high 5.98 season ERA, and the Over stands at 7-2-1 when it's his turn to throw the pearl. As for Cashner, the Over has cashed just three times in his 11 season starts, but his ERA is over 5.

The Yankees are on a 7-3-1 Over clip their last 11 games played, and the Over in the series is a dominant 23-3 the last 26 times these division rivals have played one another.

Look for the ball to be flying around the yard tonight, and look for the runs to add up to an Over.

4* N.Y. YANKEES-BALTIMORE OVER

NBA Finals Game 1 betting preview and odds: Cavaliers at Warriors

Cleveland Cavaliers at Golden State Warriors (-12.5, 214.5)

Series tied 0-0.

The Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors in the NBA Finals for the fourth straight game and the series begins Thursday night in Oakland, Calif. The Warriors won two of the first three meetings and the latest matchup will likely begin with Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (concussion) sitting out.

Cleveland star LeBron James doesn't understand why there is complaining that the two teams are one again sharing the Finals' stage. "Teams have had their opportunities to beat the Cavs over the last four years, and teams have had the opportunities to beat the Warriors over the last four years," James said at his Wednesday press conference. "If you want to see somebody else in the postseason, then you got to beat them." There also has been a lot of chatter about how James lacks a supporting case - an odd notion for a team that is in the NBA Finals and one Warriors coach Steve Kerr doesn't prescribe to in the least. "You don't get to The Finals with one man, no matter how good that one man is," Kerr said at his press conference. "So we have great respect for the Cavs, their resiliency. The fact that they're here four years in a row - we know exactly how hard that is. So we're preparing for a lot more than just LeBron, that's for sure."

TV: 9 p.m. ET, ABC

LINE HISTORY: The Warriors opened as 11.5-point home favorites when the odds were first released Monday night and as of Wednesday night that number is up to -12.5. The total hit betting boards at 216 and has been dropped to 214.5.

INJURY REPORT:

Cavaliers - C K. Love (Questionable, Concussion).

Warriors - PF D. Green (Probable, Ankle), SF A. Iguodala (Out, Leg), SF C. Boucher (Out Indefinitely, Ankle).

MATCHUP CHART:



ABOUT THE CAVALIERS (62-38 SU, 40-59-1 ATS, 46-52-2 O/U): Love suffered a concussion in Friday's Game 6 of the Eastern Conference finals against the Boston Celtics and has yet to pass the protocol and coach Tyronn Lue doesn't know if he will be available. Love, a five-time All-Star, was seen on the practice floor Wednesday and Lue did indicate that Love will start the contest if he is cleared to play. Love's presence would alleviate some pressure off James, who is averaging 34 points, 9.2 rebounds and 8.8 assists in a stellar postseason.

ABOUT THE WARRIORS (70-29 SU, 43-55-1 ATS, 44-54-1 O/U): Veteran defensive stopper Andre Iguodala (left leg) will miss his fifth consecutive contest, leaving Golden State without a player who typically shadows James. "Well, he was MVP of the series in 2015, largely because he took that role on of guarding LeBron, but also because of what he did offensively," Kerr told reporters in reference to Iguodala's importance. "He's doing a little bit better. Some encouraging signs, but we have ruled him out for Game 1." Kerr did the duty of guarding James will be spread among at least four players - forwards Kevin Durant and Draymond Green and guards Klay Thompson and Shaun Livingston.

TRENDS:

* Cavaliers are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 vs. NBA Pacific.
* Warriors are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 vs. Eastern Conference.
* Under is 4-0 in Cavaliers' last 4 road games.
* Under is 5-0 in Warriors' last 5 overall.
* Under is 8-2-2 in the last 12 meetings in Golden State.

CONSENSUS: 53 percent of pointspread bets are on the underdog Cleveland Cavaliers while 59 percent of totals wagers are on the Over.
