We have seen all season long what a difference a star player has had on the outcome of teams that have elite status because of them. Oklahoma City really struggled early in the season, and the Cleveland Cavs with a totally revamped roster struggled mightily when LeBron James went down. The Cavs are 33-21, but without LeBron they have been 1-9. That means when he has been on the court, the Cavs are 31-12, which would put them right near the top of the league. The Cavs have come together as a team and are 14-1 in their last 15 games. The Bulls have not been that good in their last 18 games where they have a losing record at 8-10, and the inconsistency has left them at an ugly 3-10 ATS following a win. The Cavs have a lot of momentum, and confidence, are 12-3 ATS in their last 25, and get it done tonight again. Play on Cleveland.
