The Cleveland Cavaliers are off to a 2-2 start after starting the season at 8-45 a year ago, and it looks like they are turning the corner. The reality to their 2-2 start is facing four teams that were a combined 92 games below .500 last year. Charlotte has started slow at 1-3, but they have faced Miami twice and Orlando for their three losses, so a stark contrast in opponents is pushing this line into value on the visitors. The last meeting a year ago the Bobcats were on a two game losing streak and were a road favorite here of 1 point. The Cavs have struck out as a favorite at just 7-20 ATS in their last 27, while the Bobcats soaring to an 8-3 ATS mark in their last 11 posted as a dog, and have taken the money in five of their last seven vs. the Cavs. Play on Charlotte in this one.
