Cleveland got off to a slow start, scoring only 43 points in the First-Half, and never could catch up against Brooklyn on Tuesday, even while outscoring the Nets, 65-58, in the second half and holding them to just 17 points in the second quarter. Atlanta held Charlotte to 52 points in the First-Half and pulled away with a 132-103 win while scoring 72 points in the second half. The Cavaliers allow opponents 53.8 points in the First-Half on the season. As far as the full game, the last three meetings have gone OVER by an average of 16 points, the OVER is 19-7 in Atlanta's last 26 games against teams with winning records, and 14 of the last 20 meetings have gone OVER. Cleveland is 11-4 OVER in its last 15 games overall and 10-3 OVER as an underdog. Play the First-Half UNDER and the full-game OVER.
