Cleveland at Philadelphia

Cleveland has a bad record, but is not that bad of a team. The offense is averaging 97.6 points per game behind sparkplug PG Kyrie Irving. The schedule maker has not been kind, as they just finished up a six-game road trip, and an 11-day road trip. Remember that this team lost at Phoenix by a basket on that trip and even beat the Clippers, 108-101, as a +10 dog, so when this offense is clicking they can play with anyone. They take on a Philadelphia (5-4) team that is still trying to get healthy with center Andruw Bynum still out. They've lost two of the last three games and have a losing record at home. In those two recent losses they were favored by 8 at home against Detroit (94-76 defeat) and by 4 in a loss to the Bucks on this court (105-96). Play the Cleveland Cavaliers on the moneyline.
