I will bet an unusual game tonight, because I am not a fan of betting unofficial games and I have not been very active in basketball in the past months, but I watched it. And I think it is the first time ever for me to go crazy with a maximum stake on a friendly game, or preseason. But it is worth it.
When you look at the situation in this match, you can't help but think that Indiana is a magnificent bet.
I watched a bit of Indiana in the preseason and they took it seriously, playing some great young players in company of the more well known stars.
I watched much more of Cleveland and I can tell you that this team can't give 2 cents about the preseason. They are 0-4 in the preseason. Of course Kyrie, Love, JR, Shumpert, Thompson are all not playing, but I am watching Cleveland and when they are ahead in the game, or in a key moment, they just bring off the starters, send some fringe guys, ruin the momentum.
Cleveland with Milwaukee 2 nights ago was the perfect example, Cleveland was leading and suddenly took all players off forever, did not care, did not bring them on again, played with the fringe guys and got beaten soundly.
Lebron will at best play 15 minutes tonight but I don't thing he will play at all, Cleveland will basically play with the second unit and if recent events are an indication, they will play with the 3rd and 4th unit for most of the match.
Indiana is using a good rotation and is increasing the numbers for the top players. Indiana will get close to a normal season rotation in this game and for the life of me I can not see them losing in Cleveland.
I don't want to predict, but I have a feeling that tonight Indiana will be rated at 1.60 or 1.70 to win the match. I can tell you that I am positive Cleveland is gonna have a 0-5 preseason record after this game, but we have to wait and see.
